If you play a musical instrument it’s a good fun! I play the guitar and practise a lot.

At home I usually listen to music or read magazines and books. Of course, as other teenagers I often go on the Internet or play computer games – but not always! It’s a pity that a lot of teenagers live their lives on several public sites like Facebook or Twitter! They had better make real friends!

In the evenings I sometimes watch TV. I often invite my friends over for dinner or a cup of tea and we play chess or cards.

At the weekend we go hiking, fishing or sometimes we go to the cinema. We like comedies.
