There comes a time in every student's life when they start to think that going out isn't all it's cracked up to be. You now have things to do on the weekend, like wash your clothes and attempting to do some study. So even though you may feel like the world's biggest loser by wanting to stay in on a Friday night, have no fear, you're not alone. Here's why staying in is the new going out;
You've had a tough week at college and can't be assed.
If college was tough this week, take a few days off to re-energise in the form of pizza and chocolate. It'll stop you getting stressed and means you won't wake up feeling even shitter on Saturday. So much free time for activities.
You love snuggling up in bed with a pizza and some wine.
Bring Italy to you baby. This is one of the few times where eating like a pig is acceptable, so make the most of it. It's like a romantic meal for two, but for one.
You hate the idea of shouting at your friends in a club.
Sometimes it's nice not having to shout across a table to ask how your mates week was. Staying in means a proper catch-up that you'll actually remember.
You save a fucking fortune.
No more overpriced drinks, takeaways or taxis. Or a sore head, for that matter.
You can smoke and drink as much as you wish in your own home.
There's nothing better than having an indoor heated smoking area with a sofa AND a bathroom with no queue nearby.
If you pass out, you're safe in the knowledge that you won't be abducted.
Always handy to know. It also eradicates the fear that you'll wake up in some random bed (again).
Blankets and Friday nights just go so well together.
Oh well hello blanket, I haven't seen you in a while. Time to smother me in your warmth and never let me go.
You have a new Netflix series to watch.
There are new episodes of House Of Cards out and so you know that this evening your body isn't moving any further than three metres from your laptop.
You won't have a shocker of a hangover in the morning.
You can sleep in and wake up feeling wonderful. What's not to like about that?
You'll be able to get shit done on Saturday.
Whether it's meeting friends from college or getting the laundry sorted, Saturday is now your day to get things done. You'll feel super productive and fresh as a daisy. Squeeze every last moment from it.
