That Friday feeling!

July 23, 2010 9:17am CST
Have you ever noticed how much more people smile on a Friday? People seem to be in a much better mood. It might be because it's nearly the weekend but everyone here seems to have that Friday feeling. Do you feel happier on a Friday?

Friday's have always been my favorite day regardless if the day has problems or even if it's not my Friday. It's Friday and the start of the weekend, doesn't matter if you have plans or not it's just nice to know that it's the end of the week. We are going to the movies tomorrow and will run around doing light errands in the morning. Hope you enjoyed your Friday, till next week. Happy Mylotting!!!

ROTFLMAO @ "Do you like hats?" My username is actually because of my love of beanie babies, I started collecting them back in the 90's although my addiction has subsided greatly it is the username that I started using way back and has just stuck with me as I feel it suits me well. My Friday was uneventful as I've been recovering from a recent surgery. I'm not able to do to much yet. Thank you for the laugh this morning even though it hurt to laugh like that.

Hello Beaniefanatic. Do you like hats or is it just a randon nickname? Yes Fridays always have that special feeling and I feel the same even if I have to work on the Saturday. Hope you enjoyed your Friday too, happy Mylotting :)

LOL I thought you liked beanie hats, that's typical of me to get the wrong end of the stick like that. I hope you're better soon, I'll try not to make you laugh hard again until you're better :)

Off course because it is the best day of the week. You get two full days of from school and work well for most people that dont have to work on the weekends. Its a time to relax go out and have some fun and not have to worry. I love fridays even though I think the weekend should begin on thursday but thats just me lol.

Hello Metalsolid. It would be nice if the weekend started on Thursday. I'm sure no one would complain about a longer weekend, certainly not me

Oh another Friday.. Yes I had noticed how many people are very happy on Fridays including me. It is because, It is the last day when adults need to work. Because, tomorrow many people can go to little vacation to their relatives or to other event. Friday is very special day to all people, because It is only one day every week, but It is like little holiday. I can tell you little secret Friday is my favourite day from childhood except Black 13 Friday. I am a little bit of superstitious. I am always happy to seen happy people on the streets and I think If every people would smile then world would be better. Take care, Have a nice day!

Hello ET. I've always liked Fridays since I was a kid and school used to finish for the weekend. Everyone's mood seems to improve on Friday, I wish every day felt the same. Friday 13th is different though, I think everyone is a bit supersticious about that day :)

@ ET and Autumn, I just had to say that I was born on Friday the 13th, so I don't have that superstition. Just had to throw that out there.

Hello Swn_chik. Yes Friday is only a good day if we don't have to work on Saturday. I get asked to work on Saturday sometimes but not too often and when I do it's usually only for about three hours so that's not too bad :)

Out of seven days in a week,i like Friday a lot and i feel lazy like on Monday and Tuesday.I myself don't know why but i feel so.When Thursday is about to be end,i feel as if i have something especial to be do next day.But when Monday is on the way i feel insecure as if i have some heavy loads to carry whole day.I like Friday and its my favorite day.

Hello Krnavtr. I feel the same on thursday because the next day is Friday, the week is coming to an end and my mood is much better. Monday is most people's least favourite day I think because it's the start of a new week at work so we like to make the most of Sunday and be as lazy as we can be :)

Somewhat, it means I don't clean as much,or get up as early, but it also means that my family is home and I can't work on my story as much as I want because they have to be on the computer...unless they have plans, then I can..

Hello Carmel. I enjoy my lie in on a Saturday and the thought of it puts me in a good mood all day on Friday. I hope you manage to work on your story this weekend :)

Some people do not work of a weekend,yet others do.I think that it all depends on if there is something that they have that they have planned to look forward to.Some people do not have much to look forward to so that is some reasons why there are some unhappy looking people still.

Hello Unique. Thanks, Autumn is my favourite season so I used that to think of my name :) I find even the most miserable people seem happy on Fridays. Like you say we have a weekend of indulgence to look forward to so that's what gives us all that Friday feeling :)

Thanks God it's Friday! I love when it comes to Friday, I can stay up till late at night, I can go to cinema and watch midnight show, I can chat all night, I can laze on bed till late, I don't have to get up early, I can hang up with friends, I can go books hunting... It seems like I can do anything at weekend. The truth is when it comes to weekend, I could not hold my eyes up until 11pm. I could not laze on bed cause there are laundry to do, bathroom to clean, house to tidy up. Most of my friends do the same, so we cannot hang up in a place to chit and chat. The internet connection is busy during weekend, so the signal is low and I get frustrated by it and turn it off. Sometimes the connection is perfect but there is no one of my online friends is online. So, often my weekend ended up so boring. Still, every Friday I feel happy anticipating the weekend, so do my colleagues in the office and I notice we work slacker on Friday.

Hello Jennyze. So you also have that Friday feeling :) I know what you mean about weekends ending up boring because we look forward to them all week then when they come we don't have much to do but I still enjoy my lie in and my Friday drink with the girls after work. A midnight show at the cinema sounds good :) Also book hunting, I love to read :)

Yes .I feel more happy when the friday is coming .Because the friday means the weekend , therefore I do not need to go to work every weekends , and can do my own things on weekends . So I will enjoy myself on weekends . Do you think so ?

Hello Woodman. Yes everyone loves the weekend, it's a break from work or school so Friday afternoon is the start. I don't mind having to work on a saturday but I'm in a better mood on Friday when I have the whole weekend off :)

I'm one of those whose happy to be Friday :). Although I still have work the next day but it not as loaded as during weekdays. I get up more easily and there's really a feeling of being carefree and happy. It is really TGIF!

Hello Wannaberich. Well we have a whole week until the next Friday but it won't be long til we're saying TGIF again :) We say thank crunchie it's Friday too, it's a catchphrase from an old advert for a chocolate bar and it stuck. There used to be a show on TV called TFI Friday hosted by Chris Evans and it used to put me in the mood for the weekend :)

Yeah u r rit!! i always felt d same from a long tym but didnt give much focus on this thot. I always loved friday very much and still do! I think the main reason is becoz of the near weekend. And the other reason is also that Friday is in itself a special day for me and the reason cant be explained as it is really a unique and speacial day in a week.
