Hungry Hitchhiker

Note before you start reading: All the people affected by my English, sentence framing and grammar… there there…

Light, fire, heat and especially the sun is my Kryptonite. These things makes my skin burn, leaving me with scars for a lifetime. Hence I can come out of my Den only at Night.

For the coming three/four(or maybe five!) months, this is my life. It all started when a month ago, while lightening the gas-run oven, I learnt how the pizza feels when it’s burnt. Long story short what I thought was a minor accident making me worry about my burnt eyebrows, I ended up spending 3 nights in the hospital, 3 weeks in isolation at home followed by months of restrictions to avoid going in the sun or even LED light as much as possible. Hence, the only way I can go out to see the world is at night, post 7 pm. This is how I ended up signing for the trial pack of Vampire life. It is 46 degrees outside according to newspapers. A week this way makes me realise how the life of a Vampire is not so bad and is ‘too chill’ in the summer. Everyone should be a Vampire…

The vampire life is interesting, while people will think vampires sleep in the morning and wake up post-sunset, in reality, we sleep at night(although late night) and wake up in the morning. To be honest, considering we cannot go out in the sun, we take extra care of our health, after all, vampires have a sexy image to maintain. God bless Twilight and The Vampire’s diary. Most of us prefer to do Yoga. Yoga helps everyone(even stupid humans) keep their skin healthy and as you can imagine all vampires have sensitive skin because of which they can’t go in the sun. Hello Uddipt sir.

This is followed by meditation to calm down from leftover anxiety(no sun no fun, but only sometimes). Slowing down helps a lot in fighting anxiety. Stuck at home you by default slow down (Unless if you are an Instagram junkie like me when I was human). Hail Therapist Maata.

Considering we cannot go in the sun, it becomes very important to have uncooked food( unlike popular belief most of us drink blood only for dinners) for breakfast. I prefer coconut water and fruit. Fun fact: American vampires prefer cold blood with cold pizza in the morning. They are the only vampires who are obese in the world but their country’s Vampire Association President disagree with all the logic and thinks his logic ‘Trumps’ over everything else.

Lunchtime is my food experimentation time. Gosh, my stupid human friends will be so happy to hear this. Considering we as vampires can’t go in the sun, there is not much to do in the afternoon. Presently, I am enjoying making bread without wheat. Next week I will focus on good quality Lunches for whole family. Everyone knows Vampires live forever. But in reality, if we don’t take good care of our health, we are just dying longer(forever).

Evenings are when the real fun begins because it is hunting time and I can come out from my Den looking for the meaning(Arth) of my supercool vampire life. But more on it the next time…

P.s.: It is Hungryhitchhiker’s Birthday today. Lately, I have been regretting ever doing this journey because of not achieving the goals that I had set in the past, I feel blessed at the moment for given an opportunity to do what I have done. Good things have started. 🙂
