Coming Home, But Not Coming Back

Last month, I moved back to my home after spending 3 whole years in a hostel. At first, it felt like hell. All the freedoms are gone in seconds! A few things hit me so hard that I took a lot of time to recover. But after all these days, I can now also see the bright side of this decision. It's difficult to adjust to the same place you called yours after that period of time when it was just a Holiday home and nothing was like it was before.  It was a Transition. Bcoz the freedom I am talking about is not just physical. It's mental freedom, the decision-making stuff, the choosing stuff, the doing this thing at that time stuff, and the not doing stuff! Indeed my most fucked sleep cycle is fixed and I am SOOO Happy about it. A hostelite just dreams about sleeping at 10pm, but that never happens.... That particular habit of watching reels before sleeping is gone! It's vanished! I was like omg... I have discovered new things about my own life! That was something fantastic.  Not...

Song in the queue...

When you open Spotify, play a song, and then the next song is played according to their algorithm, it is sometimes a treat, and sometimes it happens to be extremely annoying. You are like, brooo, that was not today's vibe, that doesn't suit the mood at all! Spotify just knows how you feel usually and plays that, but today you don't wanna listen to that same song which you were maybe dancing to yesterday… How surprising it is... Your playlist defines you, as they say... I would like to deny that today. Bcoz I am not that same person when I've completed my targets, I am not that same person in the morning when I don't really have a mood to study, neither am I the same person who wants to stare at the sun till it goes down and it's so dark that mosquitos will have you for dinner, nor am I the same person as nobody loves me, and offcourse not the same as I can do it with a broken heart, mostly it also cannot be like I'm unstoppable ( although I wish it was).

It's not about staying alone; it's about staying independently

Habits do change! It hurts when someone calls you selfish because now you cannot easily adjust to them. After all, now you cannot simply do as it is told to you and now have your way of doing things. The reason? They say I am living alone. Firstly, what you see as living alone is never a choice but an obligation. It was the punishment I got to study or for someone to work out of their hometown, for your betterment and growth. Otherwise, why would someone choose to stay in a building of heartless people? Staying independently gives you the responsibility of every tiny bit around you, may it's folding your clothes vertically and not horizontally due to the availability of storage around your place, which may not even be yours. Yet, when you go home, it's all different now. You are not doing things the same way you did when you were younger… even bathing daily at 7 am feels different now because habits change! I never imagined myself 3 years ago doing some of the things I do...
