Q. How do you usually spend your weekends? [Why?]
Answer: I usually spend my weekends mostly doing the outdoors like enjoying swimming (on
summer days), fishing and gardening. I enjoy these outdoor activities mainly because I spend
too much time indoors at my work. Oh, by the way, I also like to go to my favourite restaurant
with my friends in order to enjoy some “relaxing and fun” time. I enjoy doing all these outdoor
activities because they make me strong, positive and rejuvenated to deal with
“all-so-familiar-struggles” of our modern, tough and complicated world.
Q. Which is your favourite part of the weekend? [Why?]
Answer: My favourite part of the weekend is certainly the “morning” when I don’t have to worry
about waking up early and getting ready quickly to get to work. Then, of course, I also like the
part when I don’t really have to worry about going to bed “early” or staying up late at night. Even
more special are the Friday nights when my mind is pretty much “occupied” with the very
thoughts of enjoying a long weekend, waiting ahead of me.
Q. Do you think your weekends are long enough? [Why/Why not?]
Answer: Yes, I do think that my weekends are long enough because they help me to rejuvenate
for the challenges of the next week by allowing me to do the things that I really enjoy. Of course,
an extra weekend day would certainly be welcomed by many people like me, but I don’t see it
happening in the near future. So, essentially, whether our weekend is long enough or not
depends on how we plan to spend the time.
Q. How important do you think it is to have free time on the weekends? [Why?]
Answer: There is no doubt that work is important, but so is the recreation, families and friends.
But, without enough free time, be it on the weekends or some other times, we just won’t be able
to “recharge” ourselves, nor will we be able to interact with our families and friends enough in
order to show them that they really matter in our lives. Therefore, it is absolutely important that
we have enough free time in order to ensure a “balanced” life.
