Weekend??

Thank God its Friday, is a phrase used quite frequently, especially software professionals. After all the preoccupation with work for 5 days, its time to relax and enjoy! However, the way I spent this weekend makes me think otherwise!!! Whether its because of lack of planning or some other factor is hard to tell. Got up early morning on Saturday (Trust me, 8.am is really early), dropped my friend to the airport and suddenly I realize I'm running short of ideas to spend the weekend.
Well, this has never happened to me before. So I take out a book and start reading. Its been hardly 15 minutes of reading when I realize I have to hunt for a new place to stay! Supposed to vacate our current flat at the end of this month. So I take my bike out, and set out on a wild goose chase! I had no intentions of hunting for a new place, so no effort made in this respect. After loafing around on the Bangalore streets, I finally have lunch and come back to the flat. Sit idly for about an hour then head straight to office. Office? on a weekend? I was never a workaholic. Well, atleast I can surf the net. And thus, I spent the entire evening in office, doing nothing! Nothing at all!!! Came back at night, watched TV till midnight, but wasn't getting any sleep! Nor was in a mood to read. So just lie down, waiting for the sleep Gods to be pleased. Fortunately, they were helpful and responded soon. The next day I hoped should be better. I get up at 10.30 and decide to indulge in my favorite activity! Take my bike, go on a long ride, not knowing where to go! Just follow the road, take a random direction at a junction, take a tea break at a tea shop and move on!!! Finally after travelling around 80-100 km, I reach back to the flat and again go back to office :( in the evening, this time with a genuine intention to work (Not really). I just play some online games for about half an hour. Then I find a friend online on gtalk. A friend whom I always enjoy chatting with :) Well thats it! The evening ended
with chatting. After dinner, I head to office again, this time with Shivam and Roshan, both of whom, currently loaded with work. And what do I do? Just give them company and chat again!!! And finally decide to write this! To remind me to plan things, to avoid boring times :) After all, boredom is a really nasty bug!!!
