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.
