And so it begins...

     I was rushing through the pitch-dark forest, twigs ruthlessly pulling my long, curly hair and weird sounds of unknown animals making my heart skip a beat. I had to get there fast. I had this sickening feeling in my stomach that something really bad would happen if I did not manage. Suddenly, I tripped over a half-rotten tree trunk and fell....

     I woke up startled from the dream. The feeling of falling still lingered in my mind and part of me believed that it 'd just happened. A bit disoriented I looked at my phone and had a painful realization that I have used all my snooze options this morning. The world outside my window was excruciatingly cheerful - birds singing, the sun shining, when all I wanted was to get back to my bed which had reached that perfect morning temperature and cover my head with the blanked.
