Today I start a new habit: my morning routine( to be honest, I am practicing it for a couple of days now but unfortunately still haven’t quite grabbed it). Actually, my problem(or may be, one of my special attributes) is I am a late riser. No matter how much I try, I usually end up with clock ticking ten!! So, every time I make a morning routine I try to leave slide that early rising part and go on with other things…
I’ve actually tried different versions of a morning routine in the past year, and have enjoyed them immensely with a slight chaos..All of these routines kept my late rising habits intact until one day my granny bitterly irritated by it came up with an ultimatum, “Either u leave the bed early, or you stay wake the whole night!”.Now that’s truly impossible for me to see the stars twinkle for the whole night! So I ultimately got a new routine made:

Morning Routine

1. Wake at 4:30 6:30 a.m
2. Drink water( now that’s a thing you should do frequently).
3. Set 3 Most Important Things (MITs) for today(got utterly confused in setting this)
4. Eat breakfast, read newspaper(these two things usually go simultaneously for me).
5. Exercise (run, bike, swim, strength, or yard work) or meditate.
6. Shower
7. Prepare for my upcoming exams no way I am on a vacation here then..have a chat with my friends they might be well offline, then..do whatever I like( this sounded the best for me)

The routine looked nice for me if not the best! And so I started for it a couple of days ago. To get early the first thing you should do is to sleep early. So I finished all my jobs before going to bed as early as, on 11 p.m. But I didn’t feel like sleeping( god knows where all my tiredness went that day!). I kept staring at the sky. Hey, don’t they feel like sleeping too? Don’t they get tired of twinkling all night along? The very thought of this got me feel the stars are shutting it off. Hey is it my imagination or is really happening? The stars have stopped twinkling..The night is now darker a lot…it’s pitch black outside. No, somethings wrong with me..I can hear some noise now..like some(not some actually, but may be hundreds!) are snoring! The stars are sleeping??!! I must be mad..or may be not! Where has all the twinkles gone anyway? There are no clouds! But even though it’s a peculiar kind of snoring, I know this sound. It’s not like that comes from my granny. Well they are stars after all, their sleeping habits must also be different. But that sound is making me feel uncomfortable if only god knows why!!

And then there was light, no not sunlight. Like someone from the sky is giving all the spotlight on me. I should have got surprised but I didn’t. A whole lot of incredible things are happening here , it made me feel like everything is possible tonight! But again that stupid snoring, god knows when they will stop it..hey, now wait a minute I can remember something. No not about that light silly, I know that sound..it’s my alarm clock ringing hard as if it is determined not stop today without waking me up!! And I wake up at the shuddering thought of my granny screaming again at me!

Well she didn’t scream that morning( yes, it was morning finally) for I had made a personal record then. It was a nice morning and…the clock tickled six!! Thanks to the snoring stars!
