Boredom is the feeling of being bored by something tedious. Well, there have been several instances in my life when I got bored but here I will talk about a recent one when I got extremely bored.
Last week, my parents suddenly fell ill. The blood tests signified Typhoid but due to the ongoing Covid-19 scenario doctor seemed a little doubtful and hence suggested me to get their chest X-rays done. Both Mom and Dad were feeling weak and frail that day but I gave them some water and persuaded them to walk to the hospital’s diagnostic lab. After a few minutes we finally arrived at the laboratory which was full of people waiting for their turn to get certain tests done and some of them were waiting for their reports.
After looking around for a while we finally managed to find some vacant seats. I heaved a sigh of relief as both mom and dad needed to sit as they had fever. I paid for their tests at the reception and we started waiting for our turn thereafter. We sat there at around 1:30 pm and i was in dismay to learn that the entire staff was gone for lunch at 1:30 and they had a lunch break of 45 minutes. Mom and dad were losing their patience and I was also tired and sleepy. However, we could do nothing but wait. There were some kids accompanied by their parents who were extremely mischievous and were roaming here and there in the lab. I was literally yawning every 2 minutes and finally the lunch break ended. There were 7 people ahead of us who had to go for chest x- rays. We had to wait for almost another half an hour for our turn and my dad fell asleep on the chair. My phone’s battery was also dead which made me feel even more bored as i had nothing to do but just look around. At 2:45 they called out my dad’s name to go for the test and finally within 15 minutes the tests were done and we got our reports. Those 2 hours seemed like double the actual time as we all were tired already before going to the lab itself. So, this was the most recent day that I remember when I got bored.
