There are thousands of activities to do when it comes to the weekends. You don’t need to spend a lot of money just to achieve that vacation feel. Take advantage of everything in your surroundings. Do more than just check your Facebook feed from time to time. And rather than feeling bad about yourself for being stuck at home while your friends post vacation photos all day, try looking at the bigger picture. Soon you’ll be treating every weekend as if it’s a holiday that comes only once a year. To give you an idea on how you can make the most out of the weekend, here are 5 suggestions on what you can do during your staycation:
1. Read-a-thon
Are you still a long way to go from finishing that pile of books rotting by your bedside? Now is the opportune time to change that! Build a fort out of pillows and sheets and go through your reading list like a boss. You may also opt to read one chapter a day to build up the mystery and anticipation for the next pages.
2. Sleep-cation
Make like Sleeping Beauty and take the rest of the day off – naptime is your one and only engagement for this weekend. Turn off those alarm clocks and enjoy uninterrupted rest, because you deserve it. Catching up on sleep during weekends can also help you feel more energized for the week ahead.
3. Work it out
Most of us complain about how we lack exercise throughout the week because of our sedentary desk jobs. Well it’s a good thing that weekends are here to give you time to burn excess calories and keep you feeling fit and more confident with your physique. Completing a round of exercise, which includes cardio, stretching and toning can help ease out the stress and invigorate both mind and body.
4. Binge watch your favorite shows and films
Isn’t it nice to have something to look forward to every weekend? Despite the fact that your BFFs already watched the latest episode of Crazy Ex-Gilfriend, you know you’ll be watching it without any interruptions from school or work because you’ve done all of it during weekdays. Also it’s much more exciting when all your TV series are piled up during weekends, it’s like watching a movie that never ends.
5. Jump into the pool
Nothing spells staycation quite like swimming does. Take out your inflatable pools and set them up at the lawn to replicate that much coveted resort feel. But what’s even better is when you know that you get to have your own set of real, live and glistening swimming pools and other water amenities right within your new home! Most families these days opt to live within a gated residential community that promises a vacation lifestyle by providing upscale amenities like an exclusive lap pool and kiddie pool. Having such amenities around can help one rejuvenate instantly, bond with friends and deliver that fun vacation feel!
