OE-2-2 Do you have any free time?

Birgit from Germany

I do something most nights. On Monday and Wednesday, I go to my English class, and on Tuesday, I usually go to the cinema with friends, because the tickets are cheap then. On Thursday, I always go to the gym. I usually go out dancing on Saturday nights. I often get home at four or five in the morning, so on Sundays, I sleep! I sometimes get up at three in the afternoon.

Free time? I don't have any free time because I have my own business. I occasionally go to a rock concert - about once or twice a year - and sometimes go shopping at the weekend. I like buying expensive things with the money I earn. I have a very nice car and a very big TV. I like watching sport.

Svetlana from Russia

I don't go out much during the week. I usually study for two hours in the evening, I never watch TV, really. I usually play the piano every day. It helps me to relax. Then I go to bed at nine or ten and read. At the weekend, I go out with my family to a park or the countryside, and we go for a walk. I sometimes go to a shopping center with friends, but I hardly ever buy anything!
