In my leisure time, I mostly listen to music or sleep. Sometimes, I watch movies too, that’s actually my favourite thing to do when I want to relax. Other times, I simply sit back and unwind.
Reading isn’t really my thing, and sometimes I wonder if it’s okay not to enjoy it as much as others. But honestly, that’s just who I am. I believe everyone has what they enjoy, and for me, leisure time is about relaxing in my own simple way.
I don’t really socialize much, so I rarely chat with friends in my leisure time.
But there was one time I decided to try something new, something outside my usual comfort zone: hanging out with my friends. Honestly, it turned out sweeter than I expected. I usually find it hard to start when it comes to socializing, but once I manage to gather my friends, everything flows easily.
That day, I grabbed my phone and started calling them. I suggested we hang out; nothing serious, maybe just a stroll. Everyone agreed, and we all made one simple rule: no spending. No cafés, no restaurants, no malls. Just us, the outdoors, and whatever fun we could create on our own.
We strolled for a while, chatting and catching up on little things we usually rush past. Then we found a small open space not far from home, a quiet space surrounded by grasses and tree shade, with a cool breeze blowing through. We settled there.
We talked about everything and nothing: work, childhood memories, TV shows, and people we hadn’t seen in ages. Someone cracked a joke that had us laughing way too loud, and at that point, it didn’t matter that we hadn’t spent money or planned any special activity. We were simply happy.
We took pictures, lots of them. Hours went by without us noticing. The sun began to dim but no one was in a hurry to leave. We had enough fun and then got set to leave before it started getting dark.
Thanks for stopping by

I don't need to wait until leisure time before I listen to music, even while working I cannot do without music.
Really?
It's a different case with me. I listen to music only when I'm less busy cause it helps me digest the lyrics and really catch the beat. That way I enjoy the song the more.
