Saturday Mornings; Just a Little Slice of Heaven


Peaceful, quiet, and still. Not one peep. I climb out of bed, put on my robe and start my Saturday bright and early at 8am.

You might think I’m crazy for getting up so early on a weekend when I could be sleeping in but after telling you guys how great my Saturday mornings are, you might reconsider just how crazy I am.

Living in an apartment with two other girls can sometimes be annoying. Don’t get me wrong guys, I love my roommates dearly but sometimes I also just want some alone time. With busy schedules and classes during the week it’s hard to find time in the apartment for myself to do whatever I so please.

I’m one of those people that in order for me to actually get work done, I need some peace and quiet. I am also one of those people that if I don’t start my day doing something, I will literally do nothing the rest of the day. So, with that being said, when my alarm goes off at 8:00am on a Saturday, I know that I need to get up and get some work done while I still can because in a few short hours that silence will slide away.

When the whole apartment is up it’s a bit noisy for me to do anything that’s productive. As one roommate is in the living room singing along to who knows what song and yelling at the TV, the other one is in the bedroom trying to shut out the other one’s music and play her own. You can kind of see why if I don’t wake up early I get nothing done.

For those few short hours that my roommates are fast asleep and I’m out and about are heavenly. I literally can do anything I want without anyone judging me.

Now I’m a weirdo and when I do certain things, I don’t like people to see me do them. For example, when I clean, I have to clean by myself. I hate it when I have to do the dishes or do laundry in front of people. Saturday mornings allow me to do my laundry by myself. It allows me to do my homework and get a lot of it done. It even allows me to work out without anyone judging what I can and cannot do physically. Saturday mornings gives me some time to myself without anyone texting or bothering me.


If you are anything like me and sometimes need a break I cannot tell you how much Saturday mornings are the best. They are a little slice of heaven in the hectic world. They are a blessing. I’m telling you, wake up early next Saturday morning and you won’t be disappointed. It’s peaceful. It’s quiet. It’s still.
