Days of week: Less liked Monday

I have been thinking about this day and its properties. There is something very peculiar about Monday. Nobody likes it!! There are various reasons for not adoring poor Monday. The one running forefront is that Monday ends the weekend. It has been found guilty of killing the beautiful Friday, the lazy Saturday and the enjoyable Sunday.

When I try to recollect reminiscent Mondays of my life, I hear words like "Get up Nikhil, you need to go to school" and some more fearful thoughts, "Ohh shit, I forgot to do my homework...and its already Monday". Then I board the school bus with more than half the school children still dreaming with their half shut eyes. And there starts a new week...

The school days have long gone, but Mondays have changed little. Reason being that Monday blues are polymorphic. Meaning , the "homeworks" have changed to "assignments and projects", and my alarm clock wakes me up instead of my Mom. The school has given away to college and the school teachers to less forgiving profs. But all said and done, their irritability remains undiminished. Still nobody like Mondays.

I think we must give some credit to the seemingly tiny but benevolent side of Mondays.
Mondays are not all that bad either, they mark the beginning of a new week, a second chance to do what you forgot last Monday!!

I hope this provided you with useful insight.. the days of week series will continue.. keep blogging!!
