The Good & The Bad.

“Everyone has their good and bad days, some come at random and some technically depend on what day it is.
Like Saturdays, everyone loves
Saturday!
It's the beginning of the weekend, you're free to do as you please.
Of course, not everyone's the same. Personally,
I love Fridays, the end of the workweek, I can just get home from school and go straight to bed
if I want to. It's
the perfect set up: the fan on high, my window open letting some of the 2 o'clock sunshine in giving my room a nice soft green glow. It's making me sleepy right now! Of course, I could do something more productive like, draw, read [for leisure!] or take a walk and enjoy the sun, point is, I don't have to deal with the academics for the time being. Well we can't have a balanced week without a bad day right? Wednesday. The work week's bellybutton. You're not close to being free, but you're not quite starting out either. For the most part there's a lot of homework involved to have ready for or to-do on a Wednesday. Hence my general dislike.”

Honestly, a good day for me is every day. I wake up, go to school, listen to some music on the way to school, chill with my friends in the morning, say hi to everyone, and with me it’s almost literally anyone, and start waking up for school. Then, through the day I embark on a sea of knowledge in many different subjects. Sure, I’m not the smartest guy in my class and I’m not a fan of studying but, 1) I like to make the best out of every piece of knowledge I could get and 2) I’m getting off the subject. Then, in the afternoon I do homework, take a nap, which is a lovely activity, and watch TV. Sometimes though, I’m in Music school so I’m hanging out with friends and taking music classes. Finally, at the end of the day I chill in my PC or Mac…I wish I had a Mac…and surf the internet, usually on Gaia online, YouTube, MySpace, FaceBook, etc. The usual activity for the 21st century teenager.
There is a change in routine due to the fact that the
weekend exists and there are those days that are awkwardly different from the rest which, in personal belief, I consider the days that are worth living the ones that are strangely fun because of their lack of routinely action.
Contrary to my coworkers’ opinion on
Saturday. I don’t like the much because there isn’t much freedom in my Saturday. Cleaning my room, doing the laundry, mom’s screaming, my sister’s gymnasium classes and other sort of things make them a bit dull. Regardless, at the end of the day I just chill and play Wii or continue my surfing of the WWW.
