How I wish this wasn’t true but too much inactivity can, yes that’s right CAN lead to boredom. It’s 5:36 pm and here I am sitting and wiling away my time since 9:38 am. Eight hours spent doing nothing and at least two more to go. Yeah, apparently this is also how one’s day at work could be on certain days and please note this is when I opted to work in a law firm, which supposedly offers more than a hectic schedule any law graduate could ask for! No, by no means am I refuting or attempting to refute that statement. I would myself testify how difficult and challenging things get more often than not in a law firm. That said, I would now also add that HECTIC is any day better than INACTIVITY for ten goddamn hours. I guess I am finding it all the more weird because while I have seen the other extreme (being loaded with work and working till 2am/4am), this is the first time I am experiencing this extreme.
Talk about how well I have spent this day. Here you go- pretended to work, had lemon tea/coffee every three hours like I had so much work that caffeine was a necessity for staying awake, pretended to work again, had lunch, pretended to work, chatted with colleagues, pretended to work yet again, read some personal stuff (which helped me in pretending to work), borrowed an intern’s laptop 3 times to check Gmail and Facebook, pretended to work and pretending to work right now too while writing this post. Yes, this has pretty much been my day at work today and let me say this that from a third person's perspective, one couldn’t have asked for more but step into my shoes right away to experience the infinite boredom that the day had to offer me and I am sure we would be on the same page and together say, “we couldn’t have asked for more (BOREDOM)!!”.

Yay, yay yayyyy! Yes, that is how ecstatic I am to see the time today! It is 6:23 now; hopefully I will be able to pull off the pretense for just a little longer.
