I used to wait for it all week when I was back at school, the weekend meant, no socializing and fake smiling, no drama, no studies (listening to a teacher talk). Now, it's just another day, I usually work or writing my blog, novel. I don't think much about going out with friends or watch a movie, go on dates... Friday nights are just like other nights. I get home, pass out right after I caught up on the latest TV show episode or YouTuber. When I put it like this, it sounds pathetic, almost sad as well as boring. Don't worry, I ain't complaining cause my Friday nights are amazing, away from too many responsibilities (after work).
But if you are the quit person who prefers to stay home, cozy under a blanket instead of running wild like most college kids on Friday night, here is some proposition... Some things to make you think about what you should do on a Friday night!
#1. Harry Potter or Pirates of the Carribean marathon
This one used to be my favourite thing to do. I watched the Harry Potter movies many many times just like Pirates of the Carribean. Can't get enough of them. I ain't into Star Wars (never watched it either)but if you are definitely into this series, please go and watch it all night long.
Everyone will agree on this! Netflix has amazing movies, old as well as new. Tv shows, animation, different genre, I mean, they go it all, almost. You won't get bored out of Netflix!
#3. Get that cooking skills of yours on
Why not take the time to cook a home meal. You can put TV on, music... Fake it until you make it! Keep practicing this lasagna that you have been trying to perfect for the last three weeks instead of ordering out.
#4. Cocktail time
You may be by yourself in front of a good movie, but having a glass of wine or a martini doesn't hurt. You are already home, no need to drive back to your place. Just make sure you remember to lock the door before going to bed.
#5. Bath time if you are lucky enough to have one
Get candles going, a sweet music playlist in the background, and slowly get in the warm, bubbly bath. Enjoy that freedom, enjoy the moment of relaxation in a warm soapy bath.
#6. Skype, write letters, catch up with friends
You had a long week, no time to get that phone call, call back friends, now is a perfect time. Make sure, they are free but get that free time to catch up with family, friends... #7. Reading time
I know, it sounds boring, but if you are a bookworm like me, it will be the perfect night. Hot chocolate, candles, and a good book, the one you have been meaning to read for months, and didn't have the time to do so!
#8. Too tired, bags under your beautiful sleepy eyes...
Sleep early, try to catch up on sleep if you had sleepless nights. Boring, again, yet, we all need that time, and if you cannot nap during the day, a good night sleep may do the trick!
#9. Paint these nails of yours
If you are a woman, girl, why not treat yourself right with beauty masks, nail treatment...
#10. Organize yourself
Sometimes, we forget birthdays, we forget to send cards, we forget important dates, phone numbers... Why not take that valuable time to write everything down, neatly in case another birthday is coming up. That messy closet of yours has plenty of old clothes, then clean it out!
Friday nights aren't always about going out with friends, party until dawn, or get overly drunk, blackout and wake up the next morning naked in a stranger's bed. Whether plans got canceled or you just don't feel like spending money on a bar, there is always a way to make your Friday night on... Some people are more into getting some studies back on track, reading a novel, watch a movie with a glass of wine... Friday nights are perfect if you want to treat yourself right, but then again, I believe the perfect night is when you know you don't have studies or work the next working.
