What’s Your Sunday Morning?

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Georgetown chapter.

 

Oh, Sunday mornings. You wake up on the opposite side of your bed, make
up caked on, and the straight hair you had worked so hard on the night before is
now a big, sticky mess. You’re not really sure if that cute boy you brought home has
left or not and, in the back of your mind, you are secretly hoping he did. Thankfully,
cute boy is nowhere to be found and your clothes seem to still be on. Not much of
last night’s happenings seem to make sense and you suddenly feel like you are an
extra in “The Hangover.” Racking your brain for details, you immediately text your
three best friends and ask them to divulge every detail about the previous night, yet,
sadly, they don’t know either. Once the coffee and hangover brunch fully settles in,
you uncover a pretty big bruise on your right leg. Weird. Then, that hottie in your
class (who you’ve never had the guts to talk to) is suddenly giving you winks from
the pancake line at Leo’s. Even weirder. All at once, you start to think about all of the
possible, crazy, terrible scenarios that could have happened. Did you fall onto some
pizzas in Tuscany, ruining your outfit and your dignity? Did you even get Tuscany?
(Hopefully not because you are on that pre-Thanksgiving diet) Were you acting like
a (hot) mess in front of floor hottie? Now your stomach is really starting to hurt and
you are pretty sure it’s not from dehydration.

 
 
The ‘What the hell happened last night’ Sunday is just one example of what you may
experience following one of those far too crazy Saturday nights. But maybe your
Sunday mornings fall under one of these categories:
 
1. The ‘Good-to-Go’ Sunday: Sure, you had fun last night but you feel great this
morning. You gloat to all of your friends about how you never get hangovers,
and then proceed to eat way too much at Leo’s. Good for you, the day awaits.
 
2. The ‘OMG I Can’t Believe I Did That’ Sunday: You, unfortunately,
remember everything from the night before and are not happy about it. You
vow to never drink again (lies) and to hide yourself under the covers all
morning.
 
3. The ‘Whatever, It Was A Good Night’ Sunday: Alright
so you may or may
not have hooked up with that kid with the uni-brow and weird teeth. Who
cares. It was an overall good night. Live and let live.
 
4. The ‘Uh
Where Am I?’ Sunday: Pretty self-explanatory. Get out of there as
fast as you can.
 
5. The ‘I’m Still Drunk’ Sunday: Chances are you are one hundred percent
sober but that terrible feeling in your stomach is definitely telling you
otherwise. You make sure to stay close to a bathroom all day and purchase
way too many vitamin waters from Vittles. Hang in there, this too shall pass.
 
6. The Sunday Funday: Who says Sunday’s are just for homework and sleep?
You are up and at it, already planning on repeating last night’s adventures.
Whether it be gracing Rhino with your presence for some football watching
or heading out with the sports teams, you are fully embracing Sunday
Funday. Good luck.
