We all do many activities during our daily life. One of the activities that I did and I felt really tired was when I went for a trekking in Malayatoor. The trekking to Malayatoor hills is an activity that we do as a ritual every year. So during the Easter time, on the Black Friday, our family members along with the relatives go on this trekking in Malayatoor mountains. It is a really long way with a lot of roads and slippery pathways. As this year's summer was really hot, it was really hard to keep up with the climbing. As we were all tired and devastated with the heat and thirst, the water we carried also got emptied. There was no water to drink and we were really tired. After doing this activity, we were all really tired, especially me, I was really tired and along with the thought of climbing down, it was more terrifying than climbing up. When we climb up and when we reach there, we feel a sense of fulfillment. And when we look down, we have to go down all these ways that we came up. So it was really tiring, but it's a ritual that we follow every year. So we all did it in spite of the difficulties and the tiredness that it caused.

I participated in it to improve my physical health and also to socialize with other advocates. It was very thrilling experience. It was good. It was a new experience for me. I have never run in my life for that long. Even though I had good time with fellow advocates and also had good time engaging with others. It did feel good after completing the exercise but it made me feel tired too because it was excruciating to run for 5 km continuously without any stops.

    It Ends With Us is a book I read recently. It's by the author Colleen Hoare. It's mainly a story about two teenagers, Atlas and Lily, and how they just handle their life going through high school, adolescence, and just domestic violence at home. Both of them come from very, very different families. However, they have one common determining factor between them, which is domestic violence. The abuse that they've seen their moms go through is just insane, and they connect through that on a different level. They're actually in the same high school, but they never speak to each other until Atlas actually crashes into an empty house next to Lily's villa. When Atlas is homeless and he doesn't have anywhere to go, he just comes and breaks into the house next to Lily's, and Lily helps him with all the daily necessities like clothes and food, medicines and stuff. Furthermore, their friendship blossoms into love, but it doesn't really fructify as Atlas has to leave. This book really gave me a lot of knowledge about domestic abuse and how to deal with it.

That time is none other than the cleaning of my house on the occasion of Diwali. Actually, my mother told us the whole story behind the Diwali. All our family members included before 7-8 days before Diwali to celebrate it with full vividly and happiness. For this vividly, all the family members started cleaning their own rooms. My mother gave me to clean my own room as well as my study room. That was so boring for me because I have completed cleaning my study room very goodly because that room was not so tedious because whenever I went to that room for my further studies, then I took care of that room vividly. I washed, cleaned that table regularly on a regular basis. However, my room was so dirty, so messy room because of my bad behavior. I don't like to clean up my bed sheet, my curtains and all LED panel and so on. By doing that, I was so bored because my leg was paining. Also, I felt so bored at that time.

    Since childhood, I have always been fond of driving. Little did I know it would cause such a harm after a year. I started driving at the age of 21. It was on a sunny day and it was a long trip to go. I started off the wheels from my home. Not far than the destination, not far than the home, there was a steep turn which was coming around. It was a very very hard decision for me to take about. A light turn from the steering could lead to the dangerous situation for me. It was very stressful and very tired, as I needed to constantly hitting the brake pads and the acceleration, switching between the legs. Eventually, I successfully crossed the hill stations and the turns and twists it had. It was a very tiring task, but yet, I enjoyed the end of the day, but it indeed has been in the memory for my life.

    So last time I visited Bangalore with my friends and my colleagues, so I just started working in Leap Scholar as a counsellor and as a part of this training period, I was working in Chennai but I had to travel to Bangalore for training purposes. So during the weekends with my colleagues, we visited Avala Ghatta, so that is like 5 km from Bangalore, so it was a trekking sport, we had to uphill, so there was a small hill and the journey was about 5 km and it took us around 3-4 hours to complete that. So during, we had to climb so many stairs and there were big rocks to climb as well and I felt so exhausted at that time because it was a very sunny day and the scorching sun was also there and I was wearing a denim t-shirt and a jogger and I was feeling so sweaty as well and it was a very hot day but because of the trees that were there, we were having in this pathway that was very refreshing and the air was very cool and my friends were there with us and we were having a very great time as well, we were travelling, we were chatting and we were drinking and we bought some fruits as well to eat, to have while we are walking, it was a very great experience and I felt so refreshed and I still have a picture of me standing at the top point in my Instagram account but returning home, I felt like my leg was paining badly and I had to apply the spallioning spray in the late afternoon.

    Well, I can remember one incident that happened with me last month. As I'm a working professional, I work in a corporate firm and usually we go out on weekends with my colleagues, just hiking or just exploring some new places around the city. So the last month, on one of the weekends, we went hiking on Fort Ticona. So it was quite an intermediate trek and not too difficult but it was a hot sunny day. So that was a major drawback as it was really hot and humid out there and it was consuming a lot of energy. So we started trekking around 8am in the morning and while trekking, unfortunately, I broke my shoes and it became really difficult to continue the hike with that broken shoe. So I had to leave it behind in the corner over there and just continue the hiking with barefoot. So it was a really painful experience for me as the smaller stones were just hitting me on my feet and I couldn't walk properly.

    Band 6

    Well, I like to spend my weekends by playing sports. I usually went to my local ground on the mornings of weekends with my friends. I usually play these activities to boost my stamina and it is also a source of joy. In free time, we can play cricket, football, and many other athletic games which make us pleasure and provide us joy. On the same note, I like to talk about cricket. It is one of my favorite sports which I usually play in my spare time. These activities make me fully tired because playing cricket is a very cumbersome job. It requires physical fitness as well as mentally. As I am an all-rounder, I am a batsman and also a bowler. So no matter if it is the first inning or second, I have to play. Also during fielding and bowling, my muscles get fully fatigued because I usually stand on mid-offs which have a great distance from the pitch and I have to cover a large distance from the front of the pitch to the last. That's why usually when I play cricket, that fatigues me. Also, this is my favorite game. After winning the game or losing the game, no matter, I feel satisfied in myself as I have done something and achieved something. If I win, I celebrate with my friends or if I fail, I work on myself to win the next day.
