People think of rugby players as being tough but it’s another thing to stand in front of someone and get kicked, punched, taken down. In rugby you have two contact sessions a week and you play a game on the weekend.
Typically a weekend retreat for the heart, soul and palate, brunch is the perfect way to unwind and reconnect.
I was with – he wasn’t the president then, but – Barack Obama, when he was running, in Washington, during Black Congressional Caucus Weekend, and did a panel about global warming with him. It was almost as if I switched careers for a while, and became a political activist.
My dad took me to the skate park every single weekend to see alternative bands.
For me, meal prep is about doing the work when you have the time, which is usually on the weekend.
I would say you feel a lot more pressure at a national tournament than a state tournament. This is more of a fun weekend out with the guys. The national tournament is more business.
I think I might be one of the only people in America, or at least the only person I know, who saw both ‘The Dark Knight’ and ‘Mamma Mia!’ on their shared opening weekend.
I spent a lot of time with extended family when I was young. Every weekend, Dad would buy half a sheep and Mum would cook for about 50 people, and we would all eat on the couch, in the kitchen, spilling out into the garden.
HBO was a big thing for stand-up, and when you’re a broke kid with absolutely nothing to do on the weekend, there was always video recording your HBO specials. I would just rewind those specials and watch them like they were new again.
I love day trips around L.A. I’m a huge Disneyland junkie – I go almost every other weekend.
I came out seven times in one weekend. I have a flair for the dramatic.
Sometimes the weekend gets hijacked by work, but as my mother would say, this is the right problem.
You have Vampire Weekend who have more African references musically than most African-American artists.
If you want to stand with me as a single mom – and I know so many of my friends and colleagues do – please don’t appropriate my burden as a way to validate your own. To suggest that you are single-parenting when you are simply solo for the weekend devalues what real single mothers do.
First there was the New Hampshire primary, and we had nearly a year leading up to it. And now, look! Three primaries in one weekend! How many of these things are they going to have?
Oh, I would love to be in Don Juan’s shoes for a weekend. Not that I was ever handsome enough to be a Don Juan.
I didn’t grow up in a house – we moved a lot, and we always lived in apartments. But we looked a lot; we went to open houses almost every weekend. I think that’s why I always wanted a house.
I hung out with all the guys in my neighborhood when I was little… I would, like, skateboard and go to skate parks, like, every day and do motor cross, like, every weekend, and I was kind of one of those girls.
Every free day, every weekend, I am in a recording session. I’m very lucky to have such supportive people around me.
You can actually take a weekend course in cosmetic surgery.
I wanted so badly to walk into WrestleMania weekend as the NXT champion and headline TakeOver.
I listen to music before every race. Generally, there will be a song I’ll get into over the weekend, and I play it all weekend, particularly when I’m getting ready for a race.
I was the first wrestler ever in the history of wrestling to star in a major motion studio picture that became #1 box office of the weekend, and that gave the itch to I don’t know how many wrestlers.
I used to run away to New York from Baltimore all the time. I would get on the Greyhound bus and tell my parents I was going to some sorority weekend… I’d even make up fake permission slips, come to New York, and just ask people on the street if I could stay with them and go see midnight movies.
When I was working in Bangalore, short film making was fun – almost like a weekend getaway for me and my friends from the software industry.
I still want a curry on a Friday night and maybe a steak and kidney pudding at the weekend but not all the time.
It’s not enjoyable that you are training and you know you’re not going to be playing at the weekend. That’s difficult.
I like to dance, but it’s not my weekend activity. I’m not a clubber.
I never do a whole new set of new material. I do one new joke at a time, and I wedge it in between two good jokes. Or if it’s a long story, I don’t do it in L.A. or New York; I do it in Kansas and Omaha, all these places I’m going this weekend.
I’ve been lucky enough to do a few films that will last longer than an opening weekend and those films are the ones I’m proud of.
Eating is my main hobby now, and most of what I do on the weekend revolves around that.
My great-grandmother, who was known as Nana, passed away before I was born, but she and my mother were very, very close. For as long as I can remember, we made Nana’s waffles in my house. It was a weekend tradition.
So, not only am I panicking over the weekend if I need to know my lines, but also if can I get the kids to the zoo. Can I even go to church? I was asking for certain things that would allow me to plan my life a little better.
You never know what’s going to happen the rest of the way. You can’t predict. You don’t know what Montreal is going to do to us this weekend, and you don’t know what the Cubs are going to do to the Cardinals.
What’s interesting about Vampire Weekend, everyone in the band, except for me, had a band in high school in which they were the lead singers. And I’m the one who never had that experience.
My momma was working very hard, doing three jobs… she just worked her butt off, man. On the weekends she started to play this song called ‘Living for the Weekend.’
Dinner is usually rice, vegetables and chicken, or I’ll make fajitas, and we’ll do roast chicken on the weekend.
Every weekend I would take a train to Delhi and sneak into startup events. I really enjoyed meeting entrepreneurs who were solving big problems. They were way smarter than me. I knew this is where I had to be.
I have never in my life found myself in a situation where I’ve stopped work and said, ‘Thank God it’s Friday.’ But weekends are special even if your schedule is all over the place. Something tells you the weekend has arrived and you can indulge yourself a bit.
Whatever that big procrastination overthinking thing is, I want you to dive into it. When I say dive into, I mean, clear your whole weekend and spend your whole weekend thinking about this.
If I do not return to the pulpit this weekend, millions of people will go to hell.
When I was growing up, my dad and I would go hunting and camping every weekend. Like everyone in my family, he is an amazing cook, and I’ve tried to learn a lot from all of them.
At 15 we were going back and forth to Nashville every weekend while we were still going to school.
My entertainment was going to the local dollar movie theatre on the weekend, where I watched old black and white movies. If you wanted current movies, you had to drive to the big city.
My weekend treat is Mexican food, definitely. I love nachos and burritos.
We’re homebodies. I’ve gotten to see my kids’ first steps, first smiles, first words. Every day is a weekend.
I normally get four weeks off each year, so often I’ll go to Los Angeles, or if I have a weekend off, I’ll do a European city.
I sleep five or six hours a night, then crash at the weekend. I’m learning to eat properly and exercise. I relax by watching silly sitcoms like ‘Scrubs’ and ‘How I Met Your Mother.’
I wanted to be cleared up about that Lost Weekend. I’ve heard enough of the myth. It was frustrating, but I let it go.
I live in L.A. – I love L.A., first off – but I didn’t realize how much better the air quality was in Vancouver until I went back to L.A. for a weekend and I literally felt like I was breathing fire.
Truth be told, I didn’t want to be on T.V. I was going to be a writer or producer or a director, and at the end of my sophomore year, my department chairman put me up for a job doing weekend weather in Syracuse, New York.
I don’t think I have ever worn more outfits over the course of four days than I did Emmy weekend. You barely sleep. You don’t eat.
When a team has to work over a weekend, make a high priority of being there as well, even if it’s just to stop by and buy them a meal to show your appreciation.
People are salaried for the work they do, not the specific hours they sit at their desks. When you ding salaried employees for showing up five minutes late even though they routinely stay late and put in time on the weekend, you send the message that policies take precedence over performance.
When we travel every weekend and we’re out in these different towns, seeing the numbers that show up and how into the shows they are, I love the fact that we get to travel around and bring NXT to these fans in different towns that love what we do.
What surprised me the most? Christina Hagan, the millennial Congressional candidate and ardent Trump supporter. I walked into her living room in rural Ohio one summer weekend with an open mind, and I’m grateful she offered the same in return.
The format of the race weekend is also very well thought out. We have enough practice time to get the cars well set-up and have a proper qualifying session where we can do as many laps as we like, which is great for the drivers and spectators.
