Go out with some friends and go drinking at a bar. Try new cocktails, mixed drinks, and beers. Just don’t go overboard on the alcohol and remember that mixing drinks can sometimes have a terrible aftermath. Of course, have a designated driver or take public transportation when it's time to go home.

The weekend is the perfect time to go on a short road trip with family or friends. Go somewhere you’ve always wanted to see.

These are the most common things you can do to have fun on the weekend. Try looking around your area to see your other options. I’m sure that your place is not as boring as you think it might be. Don’t limit yourself to the usual places and things to do. Your company already owns 5 days of your week. Make the most out of these two days.
