TGIF and the weekend is here.
But the question is, what to do? A whole weekend, no class, no 9-5 grind; just you and an abundance of free time. If that isn’t extraordinary I don’t know what is.
Contrary to popular belief, life is not all about work; so this is an opportunity to let loose and pursue those activities you normally don’t have time for.
Here are some suggestions for activities this weekend: start reading a new book, create your own blog or try your hand at drawing. There is a ton of stuff that you could do that is both intellectual and artistic.
Art and the intellectual is definitely a liberating aspect of life. Pablo Picasso said, “Art washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life.” So embrace something new and different this weekend.
A great place to actually get into an intellectual mindset is Tabu Coffee, located on North Street.
The end of the semester is the time that I realize pursuing intellectual past times isn’t just for when you’re taking a class in college or a requirement at work. There is something fulfilling and relaxing about just reading a book, painting or writing a journal/blog. The act of making something out of nothing is, in a way, part of being human.
Tabu is a very eclectic and unique environment, especially here in Nacogdoches. It hosts live music on the weekends, displays art from local artists as well as art students and has an delicious array of coffee and food.
So go sit in a contemplative atmosphere this weekend or whenever and try your hand at something new. See where your mind takes you.
Tabu is open Monday-Sunday 6a.m.-12a.m. And when you drive by check out their sign, which lists all live music dates and times.
