I dont like staying at home all alone on the weekend.I'd like to go out even there's nothing special to do. Yesterday was Sunday,I went to the bank in the downtown and then met my friend.It was already noon,so we had lunch together and then we went to a KTV and sang songs.There were just two of us.And we sang all the time.When we got bored,we went to the shopping center and bought something she needed.I felt tired.I didnt have a nap.I usually sleep for about 30mins or so on weekdays.After I got back home at around 5:30pm,I started to think "did I really enjoy myself in this way"?The answer should be "NO".So I think maybe next time I should stay at home,do something I really enjoy,like watching movies,doing some reading,or just doing cross-stitching.And I still could sleep at noon.Just do the thing I like and can make me relaxed.What about you?Do you always spend weekends at home or you think like I thought before that we should spend the weekend outside our house?I hope you enjoyed your last weekend.

hello sweetyethot,
for me, i prefer to stay at home and spend it with my family. find it more relaxing and enjoying that way. than going somewhere, maybe to a mall, eat in a restaurant and watch movie. i will just get tired doing it. besides of that, it is more expensive.
i need to relax for during weekdays i go to work early and go home late. so i'm making it sure that during weekend i can take a nap and i have all the time doing what i want with my family. it's the best.

I am a homely person. Sometimes I do go out to socialize but if I do it too often, I get restless and tired. I am not the kind of person who can hang around a cafe, with a mug of coffee on my side of the table, and engage in endless conversation about politics, beauty, entertainment etc. I get restless when the conversation drags too long.
I have friends who are able to go out for dinner and socialize after work. They reach home around 10+ pm and then settle to bed after a bath. For me, I would feel like I have got cheated of my evening, if I don't get to spend the evening on my own, for several hours, doing things I'd like to do - watching some television shows, surfing the net etc.
And I would wake up the next day tired, and not looking forward to work.
I prefer a day where I have hours to myself, where I walk, eat and do my stuff at my own pace. That way I re-energize myself and feel at ease with whatever tasks expected of me.
Mind you, I am quite a sportive guy and have many friends. I am just not the type to hang out too often.

I love just staying home and doing nothing at all.
For me, the weekends are to relax. If I have a lot of things to do on the weekend, I just get more tired and stressed. By the time Monday rolls around I'm even more tired than I was before the weekend.

I prefer to stay at home than going somewhere else. But I also like going to the beach and most preferable alone, because then I felt really calm and energetic. After being surround with the same people the whole week, I think it better for me to spend the time alone and doing the things that I like. But it with friends that I rarely mett, I don't mind. I should know how to organize my time better because I always ended up thinking that I waste my time. Happy Mylotting

sometimes, i am tired of hanging out with friends, i just hang out inside our house playing with my kids, weekends is the day that i have to spend quality time with my kids. we play outside and videoke inside the house. when my friends call me then that is the time to plan going out with them.

I prefer to relax and truly relax at home. If I got bored at home, than I will go out and drive my motorcycle around and go to a mall just to get a feel of the fresh air, than return home.
I think i am an introvert....

I prefer to relax at home... To have enough sleep, eat what I want, watch tv, mylot and internet 'til morning. I also want to hang-out with my friend to unwind and relax. But on weekend I prefer to be at home with my family because my dad only comes home every weekend.

I like a mixture of thse things. When you meet friends you go and hang out with them for as long as you're in the mood and when you need to be by yourself then you just go and be there, alone, doing something that pleases you.
Its not a matter of preference, its what you feel at the moment. That can change with your moods or momentary feelings. Or, if something happens to change your mood then you'll just respond by doing whatever pleases you.

Well I prefer to go out on a saturday and friday night. Sundays I like to rest & have a day off but somtimes I have to go to work.
On a saturday I work but sometimes I go shopping, cinema or out for dinner after work. I just love going out. I love the feeling you get on a friday waiting for the saturday.

In high school and college I preferred hanging out with friends on the weekend. Now I enjoy staying home on the weekend. I think once you get a job and start a family the responsibilities of the week take their toll on you. On the weekend you just want to hang loose and relax. Sometimes it is nice to go out with friends, but not every weekend. Come to think of it sometimes it is hard to relax at home, especially if you have kids. To me nothing is better than sleeping in, having a big breakfast, and reading the morning newspaper. This may sound dull, but these days that is just the way I like it.

Hi there.
Well, sometimes I prefer to stay at home and watching TV, playing games whit my son , and sometimes I prefer to hang out whit my friends. I work six days and usually I am tired and want to get a rest whit my family, but sometimes I need to go out and having fun whit my friends.
