How do you spend your weekend?

Sometimes I am just so happy that weekend is near but when it's actually there, I can't think of anything to do but watching TV or surfing the internet. I get bored by doing these routines every weekend. Can you suggest anything else to do during weekends that requires a little amount of money? :-)

you are lucky to have weekends. i am working in this company which has no weekends. i don't like this kind of mean policy, so i don't work every sunday afternoon. of couse i can't get paid. when the time is short, it become very valuable. first i have a rest then watch some drama or shopping with friends or do housework or make some DIY thing. life can be interesting just you must try to be active.

This weekend I went to the supermarket twice and once to the fish market and each day to church and passed through town twice and got so tired and sweaty in this hot and dusty, traffic filled city I only wanted to go home and stay in my airconditioned room. I look forward to staying home on weekends because it means a break from the stolidly horrible city I live in. Sad to say from a son of the soil but my capital city ain't much !

well well well. It's hard to explain. All depends how weather is going, how much money do I have in that weekend. Sometimes I spend a whole wekwnd on my pc, most of all on the internet, other times I go fishing, or I read some books. When I can I spend all my weekend with my friends.

On the weekends, I go out to work. Afterwards, I relax at home or go hang out with friends. I like it that way, it's not too crazy.

Do you really know my weekend? OK. I will tell you about everyday of mine. I work from Monday to Friday, from 8AM to 11AM and 2PM to 5PM. In the evening I have to go to study Japanese and English at Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday. At the weekend, I go to study at Bank Academy from morning to night. Sometimes I don't go to study, I usually spend for Japanese's dance to relax. How do you feel my days?

i work all week and my son is in school so i insist on us having one day to do something fun and one day to chill at home and catch up on rest and chores we need to get done. so i look for things that are free to do since we do not have money for entertainment purposes. this past weeekend we went to a zombie walk in asbury park nj. you dress up like a zombie and march in a parade and then at the end they had dancers dance to thriller. it was so much fun. then in the weeks to come we are going to a flea market at a local church and then they are having a family day at a local state park and we have been invited to two halloween parties and we are going trick or treating. there is alot to do but you have to look around and find things.

There is lots you can do on the weekend, too much to list here. I find the best weekends are the ones where one does nothing, some of the best times are had from nothing, no plans, nothing to do and sure enough they are the ones I enjoy most. Just go with the flow that is the best way. Sometimes a weekend will be packed full of goodness with just doing nothing after a long week.

I usually spend a day with my boyfriend, that is our date day for the week, sometimes we just hang out in our house, or his house, sometimes we go out and watch movies or just eat out... the other day I spend at home with my parents, I just watch tv, surf the internet... sometimes, I play board games with my siblings to pass times.. it's inexpensive and fun.

When I was in college, I would play ping-pong ball at every weekends. But now, I have graduated and have to work in week days. Therefore, I just want to take a good rest at weekends. So I prefer to stay home and watch films or surfing the internet. I don't feel bored for doing this, because I like watching films very much. When it comes to making some money during weekends, I do some translation for others sometimes. It is a way for me to make extra money. If you have the ability, you can also do translation for others.

Well live 20 minutes away from the beach, marina. There's a boardwalk, so I go there. If you are bore with your routine, you can exercise, join a gym, take a walk through your neighborhood, go biking ride with friends, visit a bookstore, go to the library, go to the mall, try to volunteer for a few hours at a place that needs help. Stuff like that.

Weekends are special to me and my family. We do not usual go out. We stay at home, have a barbie or just watch a movie on our DVD. Sometimes we spend in the park playing with the kids or having a small picnic. We sometimes do art works from old rubbish to enhance the children's imagination.

I am suggesting these options because I want to do these myself: lie in a hammock and read a good book or answer a puzzle; arrange my computer files especially pictures, delete/classify old mails, ; do photo albums because I have tons of pictures from days gone by; get rid of old stuff to make space in my house; write something interesting. I would also prefer to go to the beach and stay there the whole day. Go biking, learn to roller skate/skate. These things should not cost much except for the initial investment of buying a bike and a pair of roller skates or even a skateboard. Hope these help.

I spend my weekend by taking enough time to rest after 5 days work that cost me stressed sometimes. If you are getting bored just watching tv or surfing the net, you can visit your friends and have a chat or malling and window shopping. I think this things can ease your boredom.
