| Bathroom and Freedom |
I am a person who's used to living life based on my own decisions at my own will. At an early age, I realized, if I won't help my self, nobody else will. I can rely on me. Because of such pedagogy, I am able to develop my own identity, my own life pace. All on my own. That is how important my independence and personal space is, for me.
But me, the person who's used to trekking through life at my own pace, suddenly found myself with a roomate. I felt like my beloved personal space or freedom will not be the same as it used to be. I even found it scarce. I seldom find a time for me. I always found myself surrounded by people. Gone were the days when I can lock my room and do whatever I want.
I miss that. I miss just singing my lungs out with the latest tune or dance with the latest music.
NO more is my freedom, my no holds barred moments, moments without inhibitions.
But desperate for my own space, I somehow managed to find a sanctuary - the toilet. Whenever, I shower I bring my phone and put it on louspeaker and, voila, I can dance, sing..with no inhibitions. I feel myself and most of all, stress free. It may be a very literal and superficial aspect of freedom and limited personal space, but at least, I can feel that I am alone, enjoying and I am me. I feel like no one, nothing else matters. No classes, no cases to read - nothing. Temporarily, I find peace and space. That the moment I step out of the bathroom, I can face the world again and all its harsh realities..refreshed and stress- free!
