My friend left a voice message on my cell, and he was asking me if I am interested in going to this "Corn Maze" to check it the out, and probably it is fun place to hang out. I can only text him back that I couldn't go, since I have to work on Saturday night. Oh well, you gain something, and you will lose something I guess. Even though I really want to go so bad to check out all the fun, instead of stuck at work, and criticized by this b*tching manager of mine, I just have to think about how many debt I have on my shoulder right now, and I really want to pay it off asap. So, suffering is unavoidable. Seriously, I already miss a lot of fun over the weekend for the past 2 years.

Well, since you have to work the best thing to do is put the fun out of your mind for now. Also, maybe at some point you can take a Saturday off so that you can hang with your friends. I know what you're talking about, I have missed things because of work myself. It is a part of life.

Yes this happens to many and sadly we wished we could go but our responsibilities at times does not allow. Maybe send him a message that such and such date you are off and plan another event.
It can be sad though because while you are working perhaps thinking of the fun you have to miss out makes the work day a bit more of a drag.

Like what you said, you gain some, you lose some. I guess that is what adults do. They prioritize. And honestly, it is so hard to prioritize. Especially if you had to chose between fun and work. LOL. But, well, we live in a society that everything has a price, and that is the price. Sometimes I would dream of going back in time and being part of the past societies wherein time is not as hectic as it it today. I would day dream on such happy thoughts. Then I have to wake up as I have so many errands to to and chores to perform. Oh life.

Unfortunately this is all part of life. In order to live and survive we must work to pay for things that we need. So therefore we miss out on some fun things in life. I'm sure there will be other times when you can do some fun things with your friends. Maybe you can schedule another day to go to the corn maze. I'm sure someone will want to go again with you.

Life demands at times to sacrifice many things even recreation if you want to live honesty and determined to pay back your loan. Once the whole generation was taught to sacrifice to reach the goal. But such people are very fes like you
