another Monday on same week

yeah, western calendar all start the week on sunday.

周日你會認為係星期一???

no no no.. I am not trying to argue that ar.. 周末 = 一周之末 = saturday.  周日 = 星期日 = the first day of the week on western calendar.  but if we are not talking about chinese (in english, saturday does not mean "last day of week" woh, if you look it up, it means "The day of the week before Sunday and following Friday"), and if I don't have a calendar to look at, to me, a week start on Monday, and ends on Sunday.  Weekend to me is Saturday and Sunday.  Long weekend is the extension of a two-day weekend.

I guess that explains why the word "next" means differently to different people sometimes.  it all depends on which day the person see as the first day of the week.

To a lot of christians, Sunday is the last day of the week because according to the bible God created the world in 6 days and on the 7th day He rested, and that's why hardcore Christians do not work on Sunday and go to church to worship.  But now you mention it, western people 識嘆好多, they start the week with an off day.
