Friday Friday FRIDAY

Friday has always been my favorite day of the week. Even though it involves work during the day (or previously work and school during my college and high school years), there is just so much anticipation and excitement throughout the day. I am so productive on Fridays because I know there is a break in sight. It's kind of like Christmas Eve. All of the excitement of Christmas Day, but you still get to look forward to it.

Fridays are even more important in my post grad life. I am thankful for my job, but I have to admit, it uses up a lot of my brain power. Fridays are the light at the end of the tunnel. In college, there are of course Friday and Saturday party nights, but there are also Thirsty Thursdays, Wasted Wednesdays...you get the idea. Pretty much, if you were devoted enough to have a nightlife, you could go out any night of the week and still reasonably function the next day.

In work life there are Friday nights, and Saturday nights. More power to the people that can still go out during the week and function at a 9-5 position. I just can't. Tonight as I sip on a margarita and indugle in Mexican food, I will rejoice knowing that tomorrow I can sleep in past 7:00 am.

Happy Friday post grads! What's your favorite weekend day, and why?

Relax Friday Night

By Shikole Struber

Not every Friday night needs to be filled with excessive alcohol, too much time getting ready and lots of energy. There are plenty of ways to spend that time that are a lot more relaxing. After 5 days in the office and too little sleep, trust me relaxing is a blessing.

  • Board Game night. So much cheaper than going out. In the comfort of somone's home. There can still be beer.

  • A movie. I highly recommend Inception.

  • A movie at home. Rent one! So cheap. And you get your own couch to sit on!

  • Read a book. I have a stack I'm dying to read but can't seem to find time. Why not on a Friday night? In bed. With candles. And wine.

  • Hang with friends at home. Why go to a noisy expensive bar? Invite people over. Serve some chips and dip. And relax.


These are just a few suggestions. What other ways can you relax on a Friday night?
