How weekend have changed !


Being a localite during engineering days there was never a craze for weekend. There was no difference in normal day of week and weekend apart from the fact that college was off….I mean there used to be no planning or so..There was no excitement as such and no wait for it. It was sometimes considered as boring as college was more fun…..So what used to be agenda for weekends in those days..to give a helping hand at home, some pending assignments and lots of sleep… And if u are lucky then there might be some classes in weekend…damn I got the importance of college life in last few days of final year of engineering ..
Anyways, So what is the change now.  Change is huge…really huge…change of city, change of lifestyle and a total change of outlook towards weekend…J Now weekends are being awaited right from Sunday night ..Ya I haven’t written anything wrong….As Sunday night  ends there  is that reluctance to go to sleep..because everybody knows at the other end of the sleep is the “Monday morning” When you are expected to be on job for next 5 continuous days….
So from  Monday itself planning starts for the next weekend…really ,earlier we never have thought of planning any thing so much in advance …But now we want to make most of these two golden days of the week…We don’t want to waste any part of it. Nights are most important ..Be it Friday night or Saturday night …to be at bed before 3-4 AM is considered sin…All pending entertainment needs to be completed as if there is a deadline given by boss. And really this gets completed on priority.:)
Any new movie released…though it is So-So and rated as” ** “we make it a so called “one time watch “…and If there is anything missed to be watched in multiplex …LAN  and internet downloading is always there…It seems bollywood makes most of its paisa on weekends by having masses like us thronging towards  multiplexes  paying at double the normal rates .It seems like we have 5 Day week..they have 2 day week J
Then there are discos, nitouts planed at old coll guys homes, out of town picnic, birthday bash, playing cards….…I never knew that there are scores of things to do for weekends…And ofcourse if u u have GF/BF then options just gets doubled  J

Its true...
When I was in college never planned weekends as such. Weekends were more boring than the lectures in the college. Now we have entirely different world over here; Every idle hour of sat & sun makes me think like I spoiled my whole life.
