Challenge 43: Time of the Day

237. Describe your favorite time of the day.

The morning. Without question, it is my favorite time of the day. I don't know if its the mood I'm in right now, or if it is the morning sun that I love, or if its the peacefulness of the situation, but I just love the mornings of every day (even Monday), and for a couple of reasons.

Firstly, I love the mornings because I don't have to walk my dog. Because at dorms, I don't own a dog, so I don't have to walk it. Instead, I can set my alarm clock for 6:30 a.m. the next day and wake up at 7 and feel like I have slept in (yes, it can get that pathetic at times). Then I can choose to make it a slow morning where I take a long bath, taking my time getting ready for the day. Then, I can plug in my ears and enjoy the long 30-minute walk up the hill to my school.

Secondly, I like the mornings because my mind is very fresh. I have all the energy I need to start off my day well. I can jump around, get a little reading done, work on little things that I have put off for the night. Or, I can also use the energy to do something productive, like create something new or read some really boring stuff that I'd rather not at night because it is sure to me to sleep.

Thirdly, mornings are great because in the morning, I can decide whether I want to be productive or not. I can choose to sleep in, order lunch from a restaurant while munching on some biscuits, and play games on the computer all day. Or, I can also choose to have an early start, which gets my whole day going. I can read a book, clean up my room, do some homework, and then maybe fool around for sometime.

Fourthly, mornings are also great for spending time with friends or going out in the hillside and spending time with the orphans. Yes, they do offer CARE activities after school on Friday, but it is so much better in the mornings, when the kids are fresh and are eager to do more paintings and learn new things! Also, because the orphanage is situated on top of the hills, it is a perfect place for lunch afterwards with the sunshine providing warmth in the cold winter.

I love the mornings. They are great for a great many things!
