Break From The Cocoon : A Freewrite Challenge

This is my first time trying freewrite challenge even after so long knowing it. I never thought I would ran out of enthusiasm to write so I could  careless about it and being a passive reader instead. Among all the freewriters out there, my favorites are @celestal and @marrillanne two steemians who are indirectly influenced myself to try freewriting.

Last night, she went to bed before midnight. It was also once in a blue moon she grabbed a book from her shelf and turning a deep sleep tune from some youtube channel. Perhaps she was tired of all things she had been going through. 

' I guess I am too perfectionist' the negative self-talk she had been practicing came again. How long had it been since last time she met someone with a flesh and have a sit down meal?

She recalled about three days ago there was a man who sucked all her energy out. Weird how it happened; they find each other over a question about a place to nap. 

Soon, she found herself following the exceptional man without knowing it would be a very exhausting day(s). Little did she know, complaining was the least of things she expected in a man.

Thank you @mariannewest for allowing everyone to join this fabulous challenge; including myself. It's been a while since I write, as result I came with less than 150 words. I have so many things to say but I guess _before midnight_ triggered everything I had been going through.

Is freewrite equal with writing anything, @macchiata?

Yes, freewrite is usually a warm up before one tries to write something after a certain time. It also disregard the grammar, spelling, and any rules from regular writing. It simply helps you to let your thoughts flow before you find an_ AHA_ moment.

However, this particular freewrite from @marrianewest has certain challenge like 5 minutes and a  prompt ( which means it has certain trigger word).
