My Happy Place
Have you ever got stressed out, mad, or depressed? Well you’ll probably watch your favorite TV show, or sleep, or even playing games (well that’s what most kids do including me!). Or you could go to that place where you can relax and just release all your stress. That kind of place is called a happy place. The place could be anywhere. It could the café, or the mall, even your own room. Everyone must have at least one happy place.
I have a lot of happy place. In fact, I just found one last month. It was on 12th April 2018. During that day, my school is having the 2nd day of EDUCOMP (which means education competition), and I was tasked as security of Registration. My job is to guide the parent of the children to the “seminar”. It was a very easy but incredibly tiring and extremely boring job (I might be exaggerating a tiny bit, well it’s not that tiring and boring anyways). My job started around 8 in the morning and ended like around, I don’t know…. Let’s just say around 10 in the morning.
At 9 : 00, There were literally no more parents for me and my friends to guide. So yeah, We just spent 1 hour doing absolutely Nothing, except for watching my friends playing using their phone (My phone is still charging so I can’t play my phone). Not only boring, but..... Wait no It is just boring that’s all. At 10 : 00 O’clock My job time is finally done but my phone Haven’t finish charging. It was a nightmare to me. So all I can do is go out to the field and play with my friends. But, it was Incredibly hot outside and the sun just burned and scorched my skin. I was sweating a lot till my clothes got wet at the back. I haven’t even move a single muscle that time (just a figure of speech).
Then the cloud covers the sun and it’s not hot anymore. So I play with my friends. We play child’s game like tag and even hide n’ seek. But I was very tired. So I sat down and drink water. It was just me and a few of my friends, until the others came and just ruin my peace and quiet. So I set off and took a walk around the huge grass field and just stay away from the noise. I walk alone then I sat under a tree to give me shades with no one around me to disturb me or break my peace and quiet. I heard the whistling of the birds, I saw the flowers blooming, and kids playing in the field. It just makes me happy and very relaxed. Until I realized that time, that I found a happy place. It Is not the greatest and best happy place, but it just make my day that time. All I want to do is just sat there and read a book.
It would be even more wonderful if there were no cars around. No modern machineries around me. I could just seat under a tree, reading my book at 7 in the morning, listening to the birds singing, flowers blooming, and little kids playing at the field and having fun. This would be a happy place. I’m no nature person, I just love peace and quiet, free from all modern machineries and Noise but the beautiful song the birds are singing. It would have been the perfect happy place. It’s just a Heaven in a Nutshell. Except the fact that I couldn’t go to this kind of place every day or every time I’m stressed out. My home area doesn’t have that kind of place.
But I have my own happy place at home. At the porch in the morning or late afternoon, enjoying the winds breezing. It just make my day. But my dream happy place on earth, is just sitting on the edge of the white cliffs of Dover, Britain at the morning looking at the beautiful blue ocean or at Sunset at the beach or the cliffs of Dover looking at the beauty of Nature. That’s my dream happy place. My dreamed Heaven in a Nutshell.
