In the 1960s，a musical group composed a popular song titled Monday，Monday："Every other day of the week is fine，yeah.But whenever Monday comes，you can find me crying all of the time."When talking about days of the week，Monday gets little expectation.I surveyed friends，and the results were very clear.When asked which day of the week they like the least，90 percent of my friends chose Monday.Not one person thought of Monday as his or her favorite day.
First of all，consider all the good things that happen on Mondays.If you are a sports fan，you may get to watch Monday Night Football in the fall.Furthermore，quite a few public holidays，are celebrated on Mondays.That means that several times a year，a Monday provides a three-day weekend.And according to websites，Monday is the best day to do shopping because there aren't as many people shopping on the first day of the workweek.Experts say that you can also get the best online deals on Mondays.This is especially true for electronics，such as computers，TVs，and video games.
To me，however，there's something even more important about Mondays.Each Monday stands for a new beginning.For example，last week I got behind on my homework and had to spend the weekend catching up.But as soon as Monday arrived，I had a clean slate.Another week I forgot to do some of my chores，so I had to give up going to a movie with my friends on the weekend.
I also love Mondays because we usually start new lessons at school at the beginning of the week.While last week's topics may have been boring，Monday can bring a new book to read，more experiments to do，or math problems to work out.Besides，I always become full of energy on Mondays after getting enough sleep at weekends.
I realize that I am probably not going to make everyone believe that Monday is the best day of the week，but hopefully I can encourage a few people to change.The next time a Monday comes，think about all the good things that could happen and look forward to the day instead of fearing it.
There's no way to avoid Mondays，so join me in making the best of them.Who knows？You might even start liking the first day of the workweek.
