Long weekends are some of the most coveted spots on our calendar. We count down the days, our eyes darting to those three days of glory; so close, yet so far away! Each day of school or work or other structured miseries is one step closer to the light. It’s the little things that we get excited about, like staying up late on Sunday night. Three day weekends are the best, right? Well…in theory, but unless you’re doing something that you really want to do they can be boring at best and miserable at worst.
There isn’t a right or wrong way to enjoy your 3 day weekend. You can spend all day unwinding on the internet or do a little bit of traveling. Or you can even do both and end up bored out of your mind like GIF Girl.
I don’t wake up in the morning feeling like P Diddy…but I deffo wake up past noon.
And while I don’t brush my teeth with a bottle of Jack, I’m definitely not brushing my hair.
Then I check the fridge for the millionth time, as if food will appear the more I look at it…
And then I refresh Tumblr for the billiionth time…
I’m left wondering if I should actually do something awesome with my weekend. Like go outside and get some sunlight.
Interact with other human beings?
Take a walk?
So I go on Tumblr and ask my followers what they think I should do.
Probably not the best question to ask them. Honestly.
But then thereis a moment of clarity. I remember that I’m young and I should be going out living life. YOLO??? What about going to a party? I love parties! Remember that last party when I–
Ok, maybe I should just aim for putting on some actual clothes today at the very least. That’s a good start.
But as soon as I garner up the motivation to actually leave my bed–I put on pants!–my parents decide that this would be the perfect time to visit a family friend for their annual Memorial Day BBQ.
That’s a 3 hour car ride…
Why did I want to leave the house, again?
Well, I don’t have a choice on the matter anyway so I might as well suck it up.
So I’m stuck at our family friend’s house with their weird 14-year-old son who says “epic fail” too much for comfort. Their house smells like cats and Mr. Whatshisface is not as good at grilling as he claims. I’d rather eat the kitty litter than that burger.
But it get’s worst. As if all of that isn’t bad enough…their wifi isn’t working.
So I give up. I give in and surrender myself to another boring 3 day weekend. At least the next holiday is summer vacation. MY BODY IS READY.
