6:00 AM -7:30 AM - "To me morning is not a time, it is slow transition from the horizontal to the vertical. Minutes are spent trying to gather enough will power to stand up and banish all hope of further slumber. This will power is rarely achieved. Instead I continue to lie down until my parents, my grandparents and my dog all yell at me to wake up. Don't they know I'm busy?"

7:35 AM -8:00 AM - "Finally to avoid further interruption, I get up. My teeth have an irritating need to be brushed every morning. This impedes upon my post- waking-up-doing-nothing-time. I have to open my eyes fully now in order to face the unusually bright 100- watt bulb"

8:30 AM - 9:07 AM- "Today was a holiday, that is, until I woke up. I switch on my computer and let the delicate thud of Metallica soothe me. There's nothing as poetic to me as Metallica lyrics, it's the only form of poetry I can hum along to - ‘Soldier boy, made of clay, now and empty shell, twenty one, only son, but he served us well, bred to kill, not to care, do just as I say, finished here, greetings death, he's yours to take away.....

9:30 AM - 10:00 AM - "Despite being compulsively jaded, I like daily newspapers, there's always something weird that catches my eye. Today's the exception. I must try and find something to do, My neighbors loves to listen to punjabi pop at an alarmingly high volume Not that anyone tells him to stop, oh no! heaven forbid! After all, everyone in my building appreciates ‘good' music that just happens to be a rehashed version of some folk song with a very UN-pind da character trying to pose as a rap star complete with the regulation troop of bodyguards and sports cars"

10:12 AM - 10:45 AM - "The current has returned and my favorite episode of Seinfeld is showing on TV. There's something about watching rich people with no real job and fabulous apartments wailing about their ‘sad' life which I find extremely hilarious. Seinfeld's over now, the TV is now again worthless. I watch an ant as it crawls from one end of the room to the other and then back again. I wish I was as easily amused. I can't listen to Metallica, my parents just gave me a lecture on how loud music will eventually make me deaf and try as I may to disregard this not completely true warning, my extremely paranoid mind won't let me"

11:00AM- 11:30AM "I sit about doing nothing, there's so much work to do, school, IIT coaching, you name it, I've got to do it. But where's the time? I might as well go back to sleep'

12:30 PM - "It's no longer morning. I woke up a few minutes ago. I can no longer despise the morning, so I must move on and do something, anything. I should polish my school shoes, they look filthy. But then I would no longer be rebelling against authority. Trifling though the rebellion may be, people count on me to disdainfully disregard the norm,......."
