Need Something to Do This Weekend? Try These 8 Fun Things

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Millersville chapter.

I know many New Year’s Resolution (especially for college students) is to save money! But it’s difficult to do something fun without spending a ton on weekends. After all, Saturdays and Sundays are the only days of the week where we have the most freedom. So, here are some things to do this weekend that are fun and affordable!

 

1. Game Night!

Invite some friends over and play cards, board games, or charades! Game night is an affordable way to have fun with friends and family.

 

2. Movie Night!

Re-watching a movie or renting one from Redbox could be a fun time with friends, family, or by yourself. Grab some popcorn, or other snacks, and have a relaxing night in after a long week!

 

3. Organize and Clean

Get some cleaning done! It’s such a relief once you clean and organize your home (it makes you feel like you organized your life). 

 

4. Try a New Hairstyle

Trying a new hairstyle Monday can be stressful, especially if you wake up early and the style doesn’t turn out like the picture-perfect design on Pinterest. The weekend is the perfect time to try a new style out without the pressure of time. 

 

5. Get Cooking

Grab some of the ingredients you already have at home and see what you can make. It’d be fun to find something new that you like for a night-in.

 

6. Try Other Pinterest activities!

Crafts and other recipes on Pinterest can be inexpensive and easy to do (if not easy, at least fun)!  Make holiday decorations or other décor for your home to brighten up your day. 

 

7. Workout

This may not be as entertaining, but it’s a good way to get healthy and possibly fulfill another resolution you may have for 2019. And, it will definitely make you feel good by the end of your night. 

 

8. Read

Read a book that you’ve been shelving!
