I love Friday night because I get to stay up as long as I want without worrying about the time. During the week I get about 3 hours to myself every evening.

Friday's I go to bed around 4am-ish.

I don't do anything special, just bum around the house with the cat playing video games and guitar.

I feel like a 12 year old lol

I like staying up late on my balcony on Friday evenings, I can hear Sydney Rd, drum and bass, mingling with gigs, people laughing and falling over, the ding of trams and the horns of trains. Honks, beeps, and swears. I can't sleep in suburbia anymore; way too quiet.

Same. I love the sounds and smells of Lygon on Friday

every other night here it smells like the trees in the park, fresh and natural . Friday is when people come alive :)

I've grown accustomed to the peace and quiet of suburbia. Though I am looking forward to moving closer next year.

Will be nice to have some life around me again.
