There are some people who cannot even stand the thought of staying at home for more than five hours, and there’re some people who just refuse to leave their home no matter how much you try to persuade them.

While there’re pros and cons to both staying at home and going out, some people firmly believe that unless there’s really a need to go out, letting your hair down and putting on your favourite pyjamas might have benefits that you’ve not have thought of, like…

Firstly, who doesn’t like sleeping? Secondly, with all the stress during the weekdays, sleeping will not only recharge you, it also takes the stress off your mind.
