What to do?

Philippines
January 25, 2013 6:22pm CST
So it's Saturday now here in the Philippines and I just got off from work. I'll be on rest day today and tomorrow but I'm so broke. I'm thinking how I can make the most out of my weekends without having to spend much or without spending at all aside from doing lots of social networking and staying here in myLot for long hours. It's tempting to keep staying here though because if I participate in discussions then I'll surely gain money from it. However, I also want to do some quality time for myself. I can't hang out with friends 'coz I'm running low on financial resources. Hahaha! Do you guys have any suggestions on how I can while away my time and make most out of it?

I absolutely hate that. I know how you feel though. My husband and I are alone usually on Saturday nights because the kids go to my mom's house overnight and go to church with her the next morning. But it just so happens every single Saturday we have NO money to go anywhere or do anything! Lol. That is SO our luck... Sometimes we take a walk around the block, I sometimes read a book, watch a movie at home, sometimes we go to the park just for a peaceful atmosphere and something different, etc...

@LovingMyBabies At least you have someone to spend time with.

The best thing to do is to get a book and read it from cover to cover. You don't need to buy one, but just borrow from friends or neighbors. Reading is the best way to while away your time without spending much. And you are also developing yourself when you read.

Are you close to the water? Can you go swimming or at least lay on a beach somewhere? Or go for a walk in a park? I've never been to the Philippines so I'm not sure what sort of resources you have available. From the pictures I've seen it sure looks beautiful though.

Turn on the radio. If a sentimental song is on, put your legs up, lean back on the sofa and then relax. If it's a hot number, well, get up and boogie. What I would do is to just watch a movie or maybe do my bible study. MyLotting is always good Just continue with it.
