This i presume is a result of the so many wonderfully fulfilling moments that I have had , those that have given me immense pleasure and enriched my soul with glee.
So, here I present my most recent, fulfilling moment ....
Scene 1 :
My house is in utter chaos. Last few weeks have been mad hectic and I have had no time to clean. The kitchen sink is full of dishes,
The living room has papers strewn all over the place,
The bedroom.. I cannot even describe it -
Clothes lying in places I cannot imagine,
laundry waiting to be done for 3 weeks,
boxes around my bed &
a plate that once held my sandwhich lying in a corner!
Scene 2 :
A friend calls. He is coming over for the weekend!
Scene 3 :
I get frantic. I cannot be in such a non presentable mode. I decide to get the cleaning done
Give myself 2 hours .
Throw my laundry in the dryer - 30 min | meanwhile Dishes - 15 min &
Spray cleaner on the platform and wait - 10 min. | meanwhile pick up trash from the living room
Wipe off the platforms and mop the kitchen floor - 10 min &
Go pick up laundry from the washer and move it to the dryer - 45 min &
Meanwhile ,Pick up trash from my room - 15 min (yeah! That much trash) &
Clean the bathroom platform and throw out trash - 20 min
Vacuum my sleeping alcove - 10 min
Get my clothes from the dryer - fold and hang them -2o min
Vacuum my living area - 10 min
1 hour 50 min - ALL DONE!
Scene 4 :
The friend walks in. Compliments me for how well I maintain my house ..
I beam away happily - fulfilling moment after a 2 hour roller coaster ride!

Its funny, how we need a 'driving' force to get things done in life!! 'MOTIVATION' to put it in a polished lingo.
@mamta - I guess you need to have guests visit you more often ;)
@Rutvee : My house is mostly clean.. you know the reasons for my preoccupation the past few weeks :)
Not many days before.. I also need ed a driving force to clean my household.. But after my marriage i do it everyday. Its fun.. I do it just for one reason.. Its my HOME.. Things change when "I" becomes "We" and house becomes "HOME"..
@Riya :
I am sure.. I must be a wonderful feeling to beautify something that will create a lot of wonderful memories for you.
you will be your driving force. this are basic things in life.
@dad: i sure will!
Dear satisfied girl... It doesnt take much to make u happy does it :p...
BTW 15 mins of washing dishes and u say the sink was full? I just washed vessels for 40 mins and still not done :(...
@spoo: I have realized that when you can find happiness in the smallest of things in life, you can always be happy :)..
And yea 15 min of dishes for a single person is much :P
Nice post.
Guess I need a friend to visit my place as well.
Alas! They are all like me. :D
Loooool ..... nice resume of any student's situaution (living alone ofcourse). I am the same. The moment a girl calls me up and by the time she is at my place, its always a roller coaster ride :) but thats the part of life and i likey^^
