Is it just me, or are the weekends never long enough? Even the week-long breaks seem too short, though to a lesser degree. But the weekends especially always seem to end too quickly.
Two days off from school just never seems like enough time. Sure, it’s fine Friday night and Saturday, and even most of Sunday is really enjoyable. But Sunday night is when you start to get that ”ugh” feeling in anticipation of the next day. And Monday morning… I think everyone knows what that feels like. (Unless you’re a morning person, which I am very much not.)
And then there’s the weekends that you’re just mentally exhausted thinking about the amount of work you have to do in a short period of time and you end up getting none of it done. Sorry, is that just me?
Well, regardless, the only break that seems to be long enough is the two months of summer break. Two or three days or even a week just doesn’t seem enough, especially when you have things to do on top of schoolwork. And if you have a trip that lasts the entire weekend, you just get more tired.
For me, whenever I get back from a Scout camping trip, I like to take the entire Sunday afternoon and night to relax, but sometimes I can’t even do that since I still have work to do from Friday!
Long story short, the breaks but especially the weekends really don’t feel long enough most of the time, and thinking about it when I have a ton of work to do just makes me more mentally exhausted.
