Saturdays
Saturday is the day of the week between Friday and Sunday. Saturday is considered either the sixth or seventh day of the week.It was named no later than the second century for the planet (Saturn), which controlled the first hour of that day according to Vettius Valens. The planet was named for the Roman god of agriculture Saturn. It has been called dies Saturni ("Saturn's Day"), through which form it entered into Old English as Sæternesdæg and gradually evolved into the word "Saturday".
Saturday is the only day of the week in which the English name comes from Roman mythology. The English names of all of the other days of the week come from Germanic polytheism. In India, Saturday is Shanivar, based on Shani, the Vedic God manifested in the planet Saturn. In the Thai solar calendar of Thailand, the day is named from the Pali word for Saturn, and the color associated with Saturday is purple. The Celtic languages also name this day for Saturn: Irish an Satharn or dia Sathuirn, Scottish Gaelic Disathairne, Welsh dydd Sadwrn, Breton Sadorn or disadorn.
Love
In the nineteen years that I have been on this planet, Saturdays have always been my favorite day of the week. I was born on a Saturday and for the most part, my greatest memories have happened on one. Every week, as a child, I looked forward to this day of the week where I could finally sleep late the night before and look forward to good ol' cartoons in the morning. These days, I still do those things, but along with catching up on my z's.It really is the awesomest day because you can truly chillax, knowing that you still have Sunday to cram for an exam or do chores, or whatever else you have on your plate.; spoken from experience, of course. There's no day like Saturday! :)
