  Hello readers, I am on day 6 of waking up at 5 am. I am going to be honest for the past couple of days kaustubh has been waking me up at 6 am. so it sucks that this blog doesn't really clear the criteria of being day 6 blog but hopefully you'll forgive me and let me call this blog "day 6 of waking up at 5 am." But anyway, today was just as good as yesterday and we made it out of the house. We were so energetic today because We went to bed quite early last night. Who knew if you don't nap the entire day you'd be tired and end up feeling sleepy way earlier than usual! :D I put on rain sounds on our google home and slept like a baby. Today we met so many floofs that my day was bound to go happy and so it did. The Golden retriever we met today, her name is Joey. For breakfast today we were feeling a little extra so we whipped up a batch of  whole wheat pancakes and made strawberry compote ( is what i believe it's called) for the topping and...

Remember when i said i was writing the blog at 11 pm pm? read this if you don't know what i am talking about. (  https://rasikadahikar.blogspot.com/2020/07/day-2-of-waking-up-at-5-am.html  ) Well turns out you can not survive on a 4 hour sleep. 5 hour sleep is hitting it too close but 4 hour sleep won't cut it if you plan on waking up early. It just won't. ( thank me later for telling you this) If you are above the age of 24 you need a minimum of 5 hours of sleep if you plan on waking up at 5 am. Anyway, we both woke up late and we decided to postpone our shoot because i wasn't feeling confident about the idea. So we decided to just chill. I finished the korean series i was watching and filled my "to watch" list with 12 more kdrama series. Turns out kdrama has a lot of good story lines which i am super excited to binge. They don't have a lot of seasons as opposed to our regular american series which is great, the only downside is that i have to be...

I am writing this blog at 11 PM which is a huge symbol of how waking up at 5 am is going for me. Just kidding, Its not half as bad I thought it would be. But i am still struggling with the sleeping part and surprisingly enough i got up today way before my alarm went off. That could totally be because Wrin kept barking around 3 AM. Today instead of fighting our second hurdle ( If you don't know about the hurdles we have to go through before going out in the morning then you should read my previous blog before starting this one) here is the link  https://rasikadahikar.blogspot.com/2020/07/day-1-of-waking-up-at-5am.html we took wrin with us. Needless to say we weren't prepared for what was about to come our way. There are roughly about 10 dogs on the route we take every morning which means we had to tackle all of them twice while going on the walk and while coming back to our home. And all we had was a huge stick to try and scare them away ( FYI a stick in the hand ...
