It was a rare Saturday that I didn’t have to follow my daughter to her music school. This Saturday reminded me of same old Saturday as I used to have.
At the first thought, it was like...wow.. a golden chance to enjoy a very brief "free" life. But wait a minute…what shall I do? I thought about it and decided to do something to kill the whole day. Well, the night time was sure to taken care of thanks to live football broadcast.
Finally, I found a way to kill time, deciding to go into the city and spent the whole day in a hair salon with my best girl friend who also agreed to have her hair done by my hair dresser for the first time.
I told her that an advantage of having the kid is that one needs not think about how to spend your holidays. “You just go with the flow. Really…," I told her. I just realised that during the few years my Saturday has been really the same: I wake up and get ready for taking my daughter to her music school located in a suburb mall. We have lunch (of course, following her choice of foods), and then go home. Then I head home and finish my Saturday with live football broadcast.
Thanks goodness my best friend didn't tell me to go "get a life". That will be pretty sad to hear because this (the whole repeated Saturday) is really my "life", at least for now.
To look at the world on a brighter side, having a kid is great. You always have something to do on holidays and you don't even have to think about the plan much.
Darker side? Well, I need a few hours to finish it.
