Onomatopoeia

"When was the last time you did something for the first time?"

Ring! Ring! The question kept ringing in my head ever since it greeted me one morning while doing my ever so usual browsing on Facebook. It's like having an extreme case of LSS after being locked up in a windowless room without anything other than a nonstop ringing vintage phone.

Beeeeeep... Everything in my life has been routinary for the longest time. I wake up super early to prep up for work, engage in my daily commute to the office, type endlessly until the clock strikes quarter before 3 in the afternoon, go home, rest. As I was trying to submerge the sound interfering in my head to focus and find an answer to the question above, the sound of the ringing phone finally vanished but was then replaced by the sound of a flatline - beeeeeep... Like I've been watching series of movies the whole day. All with a common plot of characters dying consecutively in a ward of a hospital.

Wee-woo! Wee-woo! I've been trying my best  to come up with an answer but the heat and smoke from the vicious  fire of my dreary lifestyle hindered me to do so. I was too close to getting a sixth degree burn when Wee-woo! Wee-woo! - the glorifying melody that dominated the sound of falling parts of a burning house.

I've been rescued!:)

So, when was the last time I did something for the first time? Yeah, I still have no clue.

Perhaps the answer was locked up in a windowless room...
Perhaps the answer died in the ward of an old hospital...
Perhaps the answer turned into ashes in a burning house...

But who cares? I've been rescued. Rescued and conditioned to make new memories and remember the new endless firsts.

So tell me, beautiful people... When was the last time you did something for the first time?
