I am a big Advocate for "Me time" during the weekend because it not only helps to take off the stress of the long work week but also rejuvenates you for the coming week ahead and there some really easy and simple ways to pamper your self without breaking the bank and i would sharing them with you in this post....

1. Start by cooking yourself a great meal or your favorite meal - It could even be the meal that has been on my mind all week long or maybe the recipe you have always wanted to try but which ever one you decide make sure it is something you would love and enjoy. If you don't feel up to cooking you could decide to visit a great restaurant and have a good meal for yourself...

2. Go window shopping or visist the flea market(okirika/bend down select) - Nothing as good as the smell of new things as you stroll through the market or supermarket...well it might be a little depressing if you have no money to purchase any of the stuffs immediately but at least you can make a mental note of things you might love to have when you eventually have cash to spare. I love going to the flea market because you can actually get very unique pieces for almost a steal...i remember buying a very nice jacket for 50naira yes you read right ....it cost just 50naira so take a stroll, window shop, match up pieces in your head and have fun...

3. Spend your time Praying - I believe in the power of prayers a lot and while we might not have a lot of time during the week days to pray as much as we can or want, the weekend is usually a great time to spend a little bit more time praying and communicating with the almighty God. Tell him about your stressful week and also your plans for the coming week so he can help you out with it and maybe you just show him how grateful you are and watch yourself become more peaceful and calm to face the new week..

4. Get a makeover - Whether is making a new hairstyle, getting your nails done or cutting your hair at the barber's. there is a level of excitement that comes with that. Last week i went to get henna design on my hands and the feeling of seeing the new design actually made my week go a lot better, So try to get a makeover this weekend as way of pampering yourself and you would naturally be happier. it could just be even doing just a bit of personal grooming that would give you that feeling as well...

5. Read a book, a poem or just watch a movie - Finally you could pamper yourself by reading a book, a poem or watching a movie. it doesn't matter if you have watched them before you can still watch again to gain a different perspective and idea that you might have missed the first time...
    So there it is go ahead pamper yourself and enjoy a fun filled, relaxing and amazing weekend..
