Reasons To Love Lazy Sundays

There's nothing better after a long week than to do simply nothing

Reasons To Love Lazy Sundays

I consider myself an active person. I work part time during the week while attending college full time. I study to the point I fall asleep on my books, squeeze in time to workout, salvage my social life and of course eat. I’m on the go six days a week. Although when Sunday rolls on through, it may as well be the heaven sent day of the week.

I try not to do anything on Sundays except maybe move from my bed to the couch, or to the fridge to get milk for my Cheerios. It is the day of the week to relax and not do anything. My inner laziness is displayed at its finest. Disgruntled hair, baggy sweatpants, a long sleeve that is two times too big, fuzzy socks, and endless amounts of blankets. Anyway, here is a list of reasons why I love lazy Sundays so so so very much.

1. My inner potato is displayed.

I just don’t like to do anything. It is my day to be the lazy potato that I am, have some nachos, watch some football or hockey, and sleep.

2. Rainier the better!

Rainy days automatically call for curling up on the couch and watching endless movies and fall asleep thirty minute in.

3. Cold days around Christmas.

The season is upon us, and there is nothing better than having a fireplace, Christmas decorations all around and a Christmas flick to watch.

4. Ignoring Responsibilities.

I ignore everything on Sunday. Life starts again on Monday at the sound of my alarm.

5. Imaginative.

There is nothing better than getting lost in a book for hours on end. Some people can’t stand the sight, but I embrace them and may immerse myself for a couple hours.

6. Why Change Clothes?

Okay if you went out the night before shower and change. Other than that, if there’s no obligation to something that day, why change out of those comfy clothes? Who is going to see anyway? -- Better yet, who cares?

7. Catching Up With the Fam Fam.

I catch up with my family on Sundays. I wake up, drag myself to my car, drive home, then just plop on the couch and continue my couch-laying marathon for the rest of the day. While also talking to my family of course!

8. In the Fall & Winter, it’s all about Football & Hockey.

It is the truly the most wonderful time of the year when you can eat Sunday appetizers and catch a game, maybe check a fantasy score. It can be the excitement for the day and sometimes the year for the big games!

9. It’s Your Time!

Do what you will with your Sunday. I have active Sundays where I get up and run, do some errands. I dread Mondays, and cry looking at the ridiculous amounts of homework I have do for the upcoming week. I have those moments a lot. When I do have a lazy Sunday of nothing, I cherish that like a little kid cherishes their first stuffed animal. So do what you will with your Sunday. Active or lazy!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
