Я дуже зайнятий. У мене не тільки багато роботи, але також є різні хоббі. Наприклад, у понеділок і середу я ходжу в спортзал. Я займаюся спортом вже давно. Мабуть, це моє улюблене захоплення. 
У вівторок і четвер у мене уроки іспанської. До речі, мій курс іспанської закінчується влітку, потім я хочу почати курс програмування. У п‘ятницю у мене також уроки гітари. 
Зазвичай на вихідних я ходжу в кіно чи новий ресторан. Іноді я зустрічаюся там з друзями. Але насправді я жахливий інтроверт, тому ввечері мені подобається просто бути вдома і читати книжки.
