On a usual weekend I will go out with my friends to our favorite bar.  On the other night I work. At “our” bar we seem to always have a good time.  The bar is enjoyable because I get to see my friends who go to different schools, while meeting new people.  Unfortunately, the same thing every weekend gets boring and I am ready for a change of pace.

      This weekend my first cousin is getting married and I am so happy for her.  I am looking forward to seeing everyone in my family who I haven’t seen and for the first time being able to party with my family.  My family knows how to have a good time and my cousin and I are pumped.  Free drinks, free food, and music sounds like a good time to me.

      The next weekend is my friend Rob’s birthday.  He goes away to college at SUNY New Paltz.  This college is about an hour and a half away from Staten Island but so worth the drive.  He’s always trying to get me to come up but I usually work on either a Friday or Saturday night.  Next weekend I am off of work and I have been talking with his roomate to make sure he will be around.  I am going to suprise him on his birthday and I know we will have a great weekend.  He will be very happy to see me and his fraternity and school are a great time.  Also, I am really in the need of a little vacation, so it will be nice to be in a small town and have time to relax.  He is one of my closest friends that I have not seen since August, so hanging out with him should be an enjoyable weekend. 

       Finally the last weekend in October should be the end of a great month.  One of my favorite holidays of the year, Halloween.  So many people go out on Halloween and you’re allowed to look like an idiot, slut, clown, or whoever you may want to be.  On this weekend all of my friends already have a room in Atlantic City.  We are staying in a cheap hotel but for $50 a night I cannot complain.  There will be 6-8 of us guys and then a whole group of girls that we know are coming as well.  So when it is time for us to go out we will be a large group and ready to go crazy.

      Lately I have been doing a lot of school work and working a lot.  I have saved my money and been doing what I have to do.  Now it is time for the weekdays to pass quickly because I can’t wait for the weekend!
