Finding Weekend!

-Hemani Tandon

“Time is flying from Friday evening to Monday morning.”?

As recently I’ve completed my first month in my first ever full-time job, I could definitely say this, it has been a roller-coaster ride already. Working as a freelancer and working as a senior content writer in a reputed firm is like the north and south of a magnet. This past month has been nothing but a journey of searching, reading, learning, writing, and finishing the work before the deadline I’ve always adored my drinking partner; my coffee.?

Since I’ve started working, I’ve enjoyed every moment of it, irrespective of having once in a while writer’s block day, I’ve been pretty much utilizing the times in-between one article to the other.?

At first, the job was fun, entering a new world and settling down is a bit of a big deal for introverts like me, but now that I’ve started to enjoy my journey, the only thing I’m missing these days that I crave for so bad other than long sleeping hours, are my weekends.?

With one thing or the other waiting for me every weekend, it feels like I haven’t lived any Friday, Saturday, and Sunday for a long while now. As the clock is ticking and the Monday is about to be over, there is still some extra work that is remaining to be completed before entering the office premises again tomorrow.?

I surely have not started to feel the workload as of now, I can’t say a word about how and what the future holds to unfold, but for now, I’m missing my weekends the most.

In the past, the way I’ve enjoyed my weekends of not working on a single thing past 6:00 PM from Fridays to 10:00 AM on Mondays, I would say a great habit of enjoying life is somewhere losing and leaving behind.?

From the days I’ve lived to the days I’m living now, and to the days that are yet to unfold, life has been moving way too fast and things are changing with the blink of an eye. If I’ll be honest, sometimes I do scare about letting my eyes close for more than a while, because I don’t know in what seconds I would miss what.?

With the fear of losing too much and the ambition of not letting go of any opportunity, here I’m ready to face another day at work and not lose out on my identity as not just a senior content writer at a digital marketing firm, but also as Author Hemani Tandon.?
