My Weekend Routine

After a long week, here's what I do to unwind

My Weekend Routine

Every weekend is a blessing from God.

During the week there's soooo much going on: extracurricular activities, school work, extra work, etc. The weekend is awarded as a break from the previous week. Sometimes I'm not granted a weekend away from everything and I'm sometimes busy on weekends. When I am not busy on weekends, there's a routine that helps me unwind from a busy week.

Here is my weekend routine:

1. Nap until 12 or whenever

On Saturdays you can find me in my bed until around 12pm, 2pm the latest. Sleep is something I lose most so I just replenish it on Saturday. Beauty rest is important.


2. Saturday Facial

Whenever I decide to wake up, I catch my face up. Catching my face up means to give it what it's been missing all week, a good washing. Don't get me wrong, I wash my face during the week but not as thorough because I will be late for class. During the week I just slap Noxema on my face, hop in the shower, when I'm out I wash the remaining Noxema off, brush my teeth, and start my day. On weekends, I exfoliate, Noxema, then mask it up with a mask that has what my face needs at the time.

3. Clean Up

My room is a total mess from all the running around I have to do throughout the week. So I turn on my music and get to work on my room and bathroom.

4. Read A Book or Article

I usually read a book of my interest and/or an article that I find online to relax my mind.

5. Online Window Shop

On Sunday's I usually browse through asos.com, topshop.com, or any online clothing store for that matter. Just to see what's on sale, what to add to my wishlist and because shopping relaxes me; window shopping or not.

That's it! Before I know it Monday rolls around and my busy week has started again.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
