There was no way I would miss having a timestamp that said February 29 on this blog. I don’t think I’ve posted on a leap day in the past, although law school has given me the opportunity to see one already before this.
The past three days were filled with mid-semester exams – and now that those are done, I realize I’m closer to the end of law school as an undergraduate journey than anything else. It’s mind-boggling to me that I will be a lawyer qualified to practice in India [not admitted to the Bar] in under 2 months. How lovely is that?
But that’s for another post.
Today’s post is about making the most of this extra day. I genuinely think I’ve done that. I’ve been trying to reset my sleep cycle which means I’ve stayed awake for the full day [since 12AM] and I’m looking forward to sleeping tonight. I used those extra 8 hours to binge-watch Formula 1’s amazing Drive to Survive show on Netflix. Then I watched India v. New Zealand and followed Karnataka v. Bengal.
And then, I read. I’m so glad to be able to read fiction books again after exams. Being transported to another world is outstanding.
I’m happy to have these extra 24 hours in 2020. I know where I’d like to be when the next one of these rolls around in 2024. Time will tell if that happens – and I cannot wait for that to come along.
