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.

And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.

The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
