21-Day Blogging Marathon | Day 10: Bullet point your whole day

I’m going to bullet point my day today (Tuesday, 1^st April, 2020). It has been a normal work-from-home day, no different from any other work-day in the past two weeks. While it seems normal to me today, I’m sure I’m going to look back at these times as some of the more chaotic times of my life, as for all of us.

Also, I had written this journal entry a few days back. Obviously, I can’t carry out all these activities in one single day. However, I’ve been taking out time each day to spend on these hobbies, at least one hobby a day.

Here goes for today:

8:50 AM: Woke up, after snoozing my alarm twice.
9 AM: Opened my laptop and got to work. Yes, I wake up as late as I possibly can.
9:15 AM: Had my team call: a morning virtual chat over some very real coffee.
9:30 AM: Started work. Checked my e-mails, attended some calls, made some Excel sheets, the usual.
12:00 PM: Had my breakfast. Or brunch, whatever.
2:00 PM: Had my lunch. Turns out, I actually had breakfast at 12.
2:01 PM: Realized the most interesting parts of my day are about food.
2:30 PM: Got back to work.
5:00 PM: Shut my laptop as a gesture to end my work-day. Opened it again because I write my blogs in the same laptop. Started writing this blog.
6:00 PM: Did some exercise for about an hour.
7:00 PM: Got myself all cleaned-up after the exercise.
7:30 PM: Watched some YouTube videos.
8:00 PM: So this is the interesting part. I’ve decided to participate in another challenge. Because a Blogging Marathon is not enough. I found a lettering challenge on Instagram, so I did some hand-lettering as part of this challenge. Simultaneously, had some snacks. Because, food.
9:00 PM: Edited this post. Now posting this on my blog.
9:30: Will have my dinner.
10:00 PM: Planning to call up a friend, and spend some more time on YouTube.
11:30 PM: Try to go to sleep.
12:00 PM: Actually go to sleep. Yes I sleep for almost 9 hours. :)

My opinion on - Inferno by Dan Brown

[Warning - Contains Spoilers] Released last year, Inferno is Dan Brown's fourth book in the Robert Langdon Series, the other three being Angels and Demons, The Da vinci Code and The Lost Symbol . Inferno isn't much different from the others, it was a page-turner like all his other books. The story takes off with Langdon waking up in a Hospital in Italy and suffering from retrograde amnesia. A female doctor named Sienna Brooks lets him know of his whereabouts and accompanies him in his journey which includes a sequence of interesting events, involving, of course, a lot of codes and symbols, and the story picks up pace thereafter. There are various puzzle pieces that Langdon needs to put together, which are made up by a ludicrous (also, dead) Geneticist named Bertrand Zobrist, who [SPOILERS] wants to cut down the population of the world by four billion. He commits suicide right at the beginning of the book, but not before creating a plague by the means of which he wan...

21-Day Blogging Marathon | Day 1: 5 Things That Make Me Happy

In the midst of the world locking down, and given the additional amount of time on our hands, I have decided to participate in a 21-day blogging marathon. This is inspired by the 30-day writing challenge on https://lifeentirely.wordpress.com – I have picked up some cool and interesting topics from this blog and customized them to suit my own style. Hope you enjoy it! Day 1: 5 Things That Make Me Happy I like to observe all the things around me and I greatly enjoy the little pleasures of life. Here I am listing 5 random things that bring me a lot of joy: 1. Books, bookshelves, bookstores: I find books to be very beautiful objects. What’s not to love about them? The smell, the feel of the pages, the happiness they give you when they are neatly stacked on a bookshelf next to each other, arranged by genre, author or even color. The sheer number of stories and characters they hold within themselves, and just knowing that you can get to be a p...

Entrepreneurship in India

Editor-in-chief of MiLLENNiAL magazine, Britt Hysen, writes - 60 percent Millenials think of themselves as entrepreneurs, and 90 percent of them consider entrepreneurship to be a mentality. Let's take a look at the latter half of the sentence. Entrepreneurship as a mentality. This is what Entrepreneurship is perceived as in today's day and age. New, innovative and unique ideas are flowing everywhere, and those bringing these ideas to life are millenials, creative and fearless, looking for the double bottom line of making profit as well as providing a valuable service. Look back two or three decades, and the picture is completely different. It was a time when most college graduates were satisfied with the safety of a well-paid job, and didn't dare to look outside of it. Entrepreneurship was considered a phenomenon only pursued by the ambitious Steve Jobses of the world. So what has changed in the short span of twenty, thirty years? The Techno...
