What is the Perfect Saturday?

The perfect Saturday for me looks something like this: Early morning wake up, maybe 5:30 or 6 o’clock, throw on comfy clothes, probably PJs, and watch the sun rise for a bit. Then go inside, get my gear together, and head over to school for a home wrestling tournament. These are the best because you get the excitement of a tournament, but you don’t have to drive two and a half hours to get there, plus it's in front of your home crowd. Back to the day, as it progresses, obviously winning matches makes it truly perfect, but it's also goofing around with teammates, running around the halls, and the legendary bleacher naps. It wouldn’t be totally perfect without getting to the finals, doing crossmat handshakes (with walkout songs) and watching my teammates win their finals before I win mine. Ending the day, I go home, eat food, take a shower, and watch the sun set. This is a Perfect Saturday.
