After a long and hectic working week, many wait for the weekend and hope for it to be a little different. Most people spend weekends sleeping, getting over hangover, cleaning the house or watching TV and then there is a sudden realisation of wasting the whole weekend.

Every Friday, a sound of “let’s do something different this weekend” echoes inside one’s mind but due to certain reasons, the weekend is spent at home doing nothing different and productive.
