Day 3 – My weekend routine

My weekend routine

On weekends, I have a different routine from weekdays. I wake up later, around 8:30 a.m., and take my time in the morning. After breakfast, I often read a book or watch a movie. In the afternoon, I like to go out with my friends. We sometimes go to a café or walk in the park. In the evening, I have dinner with my family. We talk and laugh together. Before bed, I like to relax and maybe listen to music. My weekend is always relaxing and fun.
