It's 8.30 in the morning and Mandy is laughing.
This has been the first day in this semester when he actually saw his mobile phone ring an alarm. It must have been funny to discover that his phone has a daily alarm of 8:25 am set by someone.
Mandy is suspicious whether his phone works properly or not - how come he never heard that thing before (!).
But there have been many such unprecedented events since last night. Firstly, Mandy was a little startled when he finished watching his fourth movie of the night, removed his headphones and heard some sounds. Those were birds and as he turned behind, he could see through his window, a somber dim light characteristic to a sunrise.
It was a shocker because he had not expected the outside to be such, he still thought it was about 3 or 4 am. When he looked at the time on his computer (which had, in the last ten hours, seen a marathon of movies before having been a host to a chatathlon) the time was 7:17 am.
Mandy is a little amazed to note that he has hardly seen more than 10-15 such mornings in this semester. He bets that he never saw this time in his watch this semester (in other words, he was always asleep at this hour).
As he is unable to sleep and is a little stiff due to last night's exertion (Chatting and watching films - an exertion ?!), he has called up his friend Bapa. Bapa too is awake and they both have headed off to have Tea at a tapri near his hostel (his mess is closed till the next semester starts).
The tea is refreshing and Mandy is observing the road, the light changing every minute and the trees against the beautiful sky.
As he is returning to his room he is watching so many new things. Some people are jogging and some having their morning walks. Mandy even saw his newspaper-man for the first time.
Its a nice feeling altogether. Even waking up early is joyful. He is now typing a 'Good Morning' message for his Mom n Dad. Its a really nice thing to wake up early in the morning. Mandy is now looking forward to reading the elaborate Sunday-newspaper which he hardly has done this semester.
It seems that this morning experience has been a blessing in disguise. Mandy is feeling refreshed and all pumped up for work ! He is now planning to make 'waking up early' as a habit. There are so many nicer things in the world than oversleeping.
Mandy finally seems to be awake !
