Weekends

I spend my weekends doing nothing, often not leaving the house or putting clothes on. Refreshing facebook a million times, watching TV series I don't really enjoy. Recovering from the hangover of a friday night was the same as every other friday night. The boredom makes me sad. I'm 24 and should be living it up. How'd I get so lame? Or is everyone else secretly doing the same thing?

hides out over the weekend, but lots do. personally, i cant wait for the weekend so i can do nothing. i work my ass off all week, if i want to blob out all weekend that is just fine. if you're tired of the routine then change it up and get out there. go for a coffee with a buddy, meet for a greasy post piss up breakfast or lunch. but for God's sake, if you want to do nothing all weekend you can. it is NOT lame. what's lame is worrying about what you SHOULD be doing, what others think you SHOULD be doing. no one lives it up every weekend. we'd all be reeeaallly tired and really broke. i will say though, if your house is a messy shithole and you are sitting in it every weekend, then i say boo to you because that is setting yourself up for feeling shitty.

Suggestion

Well, I've had my boring weekends, too. All I can suggest is that if you're not happy with what you're doing, find a way to shake it up a bit. Firstly, keep in mind that not everybody is out there 'living it up' (look at all the people who "agree" with what you've posted).
Secondly, if you're bored with those TV series, watch something else. Hit the library and rent some DVDs (free is a good price), go online to watch something, do whatever. Take up a hobby. Read a book. Flip things around in your life and get out and do stuff during the day (on Saturday) and use the evening to do the more mundane stuff like laundry. (Who says you can only go out at night, and can't do stuff during the day?) There's lots of cool stuff to do in Vancouver, and that includes free stuff (or you can get memberships and that can keep your cost down - Vancouver Art Gallery, for example). Walk the seawall. Join some Meetup groups. Go out to see a movie (yes, the bonus to going alone is that if you get there late, you can always get a seat - and you don't have to negotiate with someone to see the movie you want to see!). Just shake it up a bit, flip it on its head, and remember that you're not the only one at home on Saturday night. (Now, just to be clear - there's nothing wrong with spending a quiet weekend at home. Nothing at all. I'm only responding to your comment about the boredom....)

And perhaps, perhaps your Friday night was just so wild that your body and mind need some quiet time to recuperate - and that's perfectly fine, too!

i'm sorry, i didn't mean to offend you. i did not think you were sitting in a mess at all but i wrote it because if you are...it is a sign of depression and adding to feeling bummed it would perhaps mean seeking out help in the real world.
