59.0 Why You Need An Alarm? Fighting For Alarm: The Samurai Way

First of all, I wanted to say Sorry...I could not work on my blog for the last couple of weeks due to busy schedule. When I was looking at the views per day also, I saw a difference. But I did not have a good time to work on a new article for you all. I could allocate time. But there should be a relax mind to come up with a good article. I was not in that status, and finally, I could not write a good article for about two weeks. So, this would be the last article for this year 2019. As today is the 24th of December, now you may don't have a good time to read this article due to a busy festival schedule. But you can read it later. I hope that you all will come back to my blog and read the latest.

 

I wanted to bring some memories of something that you hate, but you cannot avoid it in your life. I know that you wanted to throw it away for millions of times. But you did not do it yet. Same here. I also wanted to break and throw it away out of my window. But still, it is with me. By looking at the topic above, you know about this terrible and supportive guy. Lol... Most probably you may also have many stories to share as all of us cannot wake up in the morning without the support of an alarm.

 

I would like to start my alarm story from the very beginning. My mother was my alarm when I was a child. As you all know the very first alarm ringing sound is low and it gets increased gradually to the next levels if we could not react to it.  But my mother did not have this setting and her sound consists of high volume from the very beginning. I could say that it is a scream and she always thought that she could not wake us up with a morning greeting. She was right. When she asked us to wake up in the neutral volume, she had to come to our room for three to four times. Finally, she scolded us and it was our morning greeting. Lol...

Sometimes we begged for a few minutes. But it was not possible with this alarm. It reminded us of our to-do list also. However, this was pressure for the alarm too. One day she did not remind me continuously and let us wake up at any time. I think on that day it was enough for her. So, we also slept peacefully without trouble. But I did not go to school on that day. Lol… So, it was a memorable day for me in my school era.

Sometimes my father came to wake up us when my mother could not handle the situation anymore. He was different and he did not scold us. Instead of that, he gave warnings. However, it was a powerful strategy, and we could not ignore his warnings. After moving to that boarding house for Advance level exams, I missed my parents. They could not phone me in the morning as we did not use mobile phones in those days. If they need to contact me, they had to call the landline of the boarding owner. So, they did not need to trouble her in the morning.

However, it was not a big deal in the morning as the other's sound was a reason for me to wake up. Nobody could sleep once they wake up and after switching on lights in the room. So, I did not need the support of an alarm because of that crowd.

But all of us used an alarm clock to wake up early morning for our studies. Each individual had separate alarms to wake up at different times. Some of them studied till midnight and some of them wake up in the early morning. However, morning alarms were the most annoying and craziest things for us. It annoyed each other. Sometimes two to three alarms rang at once. The most amazing thing was everybody wakes up except the owner of the alarm. 

Therefore, that alarm switched off by itself automatically after snoozing for a few times. Such situations made us crazy and we blamed each other. We asked them to throw the alarm away if they could not wake up or switch it off. So, we threatened some of our friends. But sometimes it happened to me also. My alarm clock was annoying other's sleep. Therefore, nobody could maintain promises, and everything controlled by our sleep. 

 

As we did not have mobile phones in those days, we used different clocks for alarms. Among them, one of our friends had a clock, and it had an antique look. It was a big clock than the other's clocks. It was an old-fashioned clock and nobody know how to manage it except our friend. Though we criticized that look, our friend did not change that clock. It was with her till we left the place. She kept it in her bed. Once we blamed her once she could not switch off it on time, she kept it in her hand to switch off quickly. Lol...

One day we heard that alarm clock's sound, and as usual, it rang a few times. It kept snoozing and ringing without the interaction of our friend. As there's no stop I got angry and I wanted to throw it away. I wanted to slap my friend as well. So, I switched on the room's light. What did I see? I could not believe my eyes. My friend was sitting on the bed by removing some parts of the clock. Her eyes were not fully opened. 

Though I speak to her, she did not respond to me and she removed the parts of the clock. But it rings continuously. Once I saw this fun thing, I could not stop my laugh. Again, I spoke to my friend. Then she said that she cannot find the button to switch off. Lol...  So, she removed all the buttons to switch off the alarm. Though we thought that she would buy a new one, she used the same alarm by fixing things again. So, we gave a nickname to her and it was 'Elamaya'. 

Now most of us don't need a separate clock for our alarm as we can get that job via our phones. I'm using energetic songs, music as my alarm tone to enjoy it and hear it. Recently, I saw a Facebook post shared by one of my friends. It says that an alarm tone is background music for the dream she sees. Lol...

41.0 Why Do We Burn Blood By Watching Horror Movies? Y Y Y??

Movie times were always good for us, and it brought joy though we watched a horror movie even. Sometimes I watched movies in a theatre with my friends or cousins and sometimes watched alone via a DVD. However, I do not have the practice to download and watch a movie. 

When I was watching a movie alone, I watched it for a few days, even though there was a happening story. One day one of my office friends gave his movie collection, and after a few days he asked 'did you watch that movie, it is marvelous right? At that time, I have not touched it even. 

So, I said 'no I could not watch it. After another a couple of weekends, he asked how many movies I watched out of that collection. At that time, I could watch half of one story. So, he was fed up with my response and said that no point in sharing it with me. Additionally, he said that it was his most precious collection. He said that he watched two to three movies per day to complete that collection. Recently also, one of my friends asked me to watch the latest movie via a 'BitTorrent. However, I could not do it yet. Lol... But I'm planning to watch 'The lion king and asked one of my friends to watch it once released. I love 'Simba...

When I was working in my former office, I used to walk a few bus halts when coming back after the office. On the way to my uncle's place, there was a small shop which sells movie DVDs. The owner of that shop was an aunt and she could introduce the movie when I was asking the summary. 

So, I used to buy movie DVDs from that shop from time to time. It was nice to have a chat with her as she had excellent skills to summarize the movie. However, that shop moved to another place, and I could not go there as it has not located in my route. So, I forgot to buy the DVDs as well, though there were other places.

A few years back, I loved watching horror movies apart from comedy movies. Most of the time, I watched horror movies with my cousin's sister. We used to go to bed with a snack and watched horror movies. However, I do not want to see blood. I wanted to skip those scenes or watch another one when there were any. But I could hardly get my cousin's approval as she did not like to miss anything. Therefore, I did not watch some scenes, and my cousin's sister informed me once it's over. As we brought some food to our bed most of the time, we could not have a peaceful sleep because of ants.

One day she told me that 'Hey, there are ants it seems. They are eating my back. At that time ants did not reach my body. So, I was very sleepy and asked her to sleep without troubling me. Though she told the same a few times, I slept like a dumb one. Though she got angry with me, I did not respond to her. But after a couple of minutes, they reached and ate me. In that case, I told her that 'Yes, there are some ants. I will change the bedsheet. But at that time, she was sleepy and somehow bore the ants attack. So, she did not want to wake up and change. When she was sleeping, I also could not change the sheet. So, I also had to bear up their attack and later on, we did not bring snacks to our bed.

Most of the horror movies we watched were English movies and one day we watched a Hindi movie. In that case, the main actress had a demon ego in her body. She worked according to the instructions of the ego. The scientific reasons for her mental status showed at the end of the movie as usual. 

Therefore, it was a scary movie. I could rate it as a five-star horror movie out of five. Once it finished, we two went to sleep. At that time, we switched off all the lights as usual. After a few minutes also, we understood that both of them were thinking about that movie as we could not sleep. So, we decided to switch on our table lamp. There were two lights and at that moment only one light was working and it gave a red color light. After going to bed it was scary for me to see my sister's face in that red color background. It was the same for her. 

So, we decided to switch off that light and switch on the room light which gave a bright white color. The entire room was lightened like 12 noon. So, we thought that everything was fine. After a few minutes, my cousin's sister talked to me again and she said that my look was scary as my hair was not combed well. But I did not want to wake up and comb my hair as I was very sleepy. It was midnight. But I had to do so as I could not sleep. It took a few hours for us to arrange a suitable sleeping background after that movie. So, the time was around 1 a.m. when we were finalizing all. Lol...

The scariest horror movie I watched was 'Drag me to hell. It was a scary one like nothing and I watched it with a few of my cousins. It was not like other situations and it was a scary movie for all of us. Sometimes, we criticized and laughed. But this was a HORROR movie for all of us. 

There was no cool one to watch and everything scared us. It is kind of a story of an old woman's curse and a young girl faced with that situation. She was working in a bank and she could not help that woman to take a loan because of her job promotion. Though that old lady begged her, she refused to help her. However, it ended up with a curse and she put her maximum effort to get rid of that curse. Though we expected her peace, it ended up dragging her to hell. 

Still, I could remember the last scary scene. After that, I did not want to watch a horror movie. Later on, one of my cousin brothers checked the reviews and ratings of that film. It was rated as a top horror movie. 

However, the funniest thing happened to one of my cousin sisters. At that time, she was working in a finance company. She said that she was facing similar situations there. All of us increased her fear saying 'Don't refuse to give loans. Give it to anybody. Otherwise, someone will curse you also. Lol... I think she was thinking about it very seriously. The actors and actresses could play their jobs well and the script also a good though it scared us a lot.
