Teenagers attend school Monday through Friday every week, working hard to ensure they keep up with what they have to do. Weekends are when students get to chill out and have fun. Some students might get together and make plans, while others may just stay at home and take time for themselves. Students have multiple different ways they can choose to spend their time. Have you ever wondered what teenagers do on the weekend?
Senior Reece Eanes shared some things she enjoys doing during her weekend. “I love hanging out with my friends and getting to spend time with them,” Eanes said. Many people like to see their friends more than just in school, and some people have friends that go to different schools, so the weekend is the only time they really get to see each other. Eanes also works throughout the whole week, including her weekends. “I also work a lot. Sometimes I really don’t want to though,” Eanes said.
Senior Harrison Prien also gave us a few insights into his ideal weekend. “I do some volunteer work on the weekends sometimes,” Prien said. Students have a bunch of activities that they can choose to do, but not many would choose to work on their days off. Prien explained that he enjoys volunteering because it gives him something to do. Along with Eanes, Prien explained that he mostly enjoys seeing his friends.
Freshman Kaydence Morris shares multiple things she enjoys doing. “I like to go get ice cream and hangout with my friends in town,” Morris said. Many people enjoy going to Dairy Queen and sitting in the outside area. Morris also enjoys spending time with family.
There are other things out there for students to do during their short breaks. Weekend should be relaxing and fun. Enjoy yourself on your days off.
