Weekend Time - A Perfect Hobby / Weekend Activity

A weekend getaway is something which I have always wished. Since its still a distant dream, I look out for other options to de-stress me. The city traffic, work and the travelling distance has its toll on me. I sure am a dull boy at the end of the week. A perfect hobby is what I look to , inorder to pep me up, get me going on a monday.

Off late I have been blogging a lot. It sure helps me a lot. It was Aru who introduced blogging to me. I keep wondering why I did not do this few years ago. To be honest there s nothing like blogging. It indeed is a wonderful hobby.

I also listen to music during weekends. It does give a soothing effect. I do catch my favorite show on Radio Indigo 91.9 FM, every saturday morning @ 7 am. Its called " The Indigo Time Tunnel ".
I get to listen all the awesome chartbusters from the past. Elvis , Simply Red , The Police , Queen, Bruce Springsteen, Duran Duran , Air Supply, Bangles are some of the artists/bands whose tracks I adore a lot.

Apart from this, I also look to VH1 for some more awesome music. VH1 classic is one program which I would love to watch. All the awesome songs of the past are here. There is also the Vh1 Big Weekend which I think is a unique concept. Every weekend tracks are played on a theme. If I could recollect there was a theme called " Forever Young Weekend ". Songs of all the artists of who started their singing careers one or two decades ago and who were still were rocking were played. I could recollect U2, Bon Jovi , Madonna and many others were there. One more theme was " Concert weekend " . Here all the songs handpicked from live concerts were played. This sure is an awsome way to unwind.

I also visit my friends during the weekends. I have already mentioned more about this under the post " The Necessity for an evening walk ".

Lots of reading is what I also enjoy on weekends. My goal is to complete one book per week [Non technical though]. These days I am quite occupied with work , hence am bit slow, unable to achieve my target. I also enjoy reading technical stuff, mostly pertaining to Microsoft Technologies.

Last but not the least I enjoy programming. I love to code, design. All over the week I do code and debug . But a pinch of programming, debugging , designing on the weekend is always close to my heart.

So these are the activities which keep me occupied over the weekend. Apart from this I do watch television but its restricted.

Weekend Time - A Perfect Weekend Getaway

Weekends never been more dearer to me, as they are now, since I have turned a pro. A perfect weekend getaway is what I have always wished. I would love to work for 5 days, the sixth day I wish to go out of town, have a ride along the country side, then come back on sunday evening , full of energy , raring to go.

I have always felt a drive along Mysore Road would de-stress me. This is very much true. The last time I was travelling along Mysore Road was with my cousins on a trip to Kerala. It did de-stress me a lot.

Though this has been a distant dream, I hope it turns into reality soon. I have two friends, who I assume, have no objections in joining me on a weekend getaway. Its Kranti and Nitin.

I even had a plan to go for a Jeep [I would not like to mention the MAKE] , which would perfectly fit in the budget and also a vehicle meant for country roads. However I could not convince my parents. They told it was a diesel vehicle and unfit for city roads. I am uwilling to buy any car other than a Jeep. Hence I am waiting for some more time before I could turn my dream of a weekend getaway to reality

Weekend Time

Its weekend time yet again. I get an opportunity and plenty of time to write something. I have no words to describe how much happy I feel when I post something. So everytime I get a chance, I rope in something new over here. This time I wish to talk about weekends. How big the role of a weekend, has been in my life , esp after I turned pro.

I would like to mention all those things I have done on weekends , since my childhood days , to this day when I am a pro and also all those things which I would love to do during the coming weekends
