What is this thing called "Saturday"?

After a month of working 6 day weeks it was pleasantly relaxing to enjoy the day known as Saturday.

Why?

Because:

a) you can leave work at 5pm Friday knowing you have 63 hours of freedom till you need to come back to the wards.

b) you can stay out really late on Friday night without feeling guilty about having to get up the next day for work. It also means you can go out karaoking with your Asian friends and then tie one of them up with duct tape and dump him outside the door of a girl he likes with a texta scrawled address label on his forehead.

c) you can sleep for long periods (enough said)

d) you can go to the shops whilst they are still open and buy things with all the money you've earnt from the past month of 6 day weeks. Things like exercise bikes (for that spring time health kick you've decided to embark on) or smoothie blenders (for the health kick too) or just random DVDs you have been eyeing for a while.

e) you can enjoy Sunday with less pressure knowing that it's not your only day off for the week.

f) you're not spending the day dealing with old people's medications whilst your friends are outside enjoying creation.

Can't wait for the long weekend! Bring it on!
