Sweden- Task4- Essay 1: My life after my school day
from Hungary
After school activities
I am a sportsman so when I finish in the school I can ‘t go home because when I arrive home I
have to go back to the training that's why I don't go home. Usually I go to my father's
restaurant or to my grandma to see and help her with the housework. I don’t think am a lazy
person, because I love sports like jogging, basketball, American football but my favourite is
football. I’m a football player I have four trainings every week. Monday is my free day but I
usually go to the forest near my home and I go jogging or a go to the gym. I think everybody
has to do some activities to relax or to have some fun. I have been playing football since I was
five. This is a great possibility to meet new people and I have a coach how helps me to train
my skills.

I usually do my homework and eat lunch when I arrive home and after that I go to the gym
near to my flat 4 or 5 times a week. Nowadays, I learn a lot in my 'free time' because I will
have a final exam next month. I learn history every day and I try to learn English as well
because these two subjects are important for my future studies.
At the weekend, I try to relax and do some outdoor activities. I spend my whole weekend with
my boyfriend because we don't meet a lot on weekdays. I always search good programs for
ourselves because I don't like spending my whole weekend at home. I usually help my mum
for example with the cleaning. We share the housework and we do it together every weekend.
All in all, everybody tries to do something useful in their afternoons.

When I arrive home after a long and exhausting day from school I have to continue learning
because I am a school leaver from the high school. So my after school activities are learning
literature, maths, history and English.
But in the past I did a lot of things after school. Every Friday I went to my dance training.
This one was my fix, constant activity. On the others days I always did different things. One
day I helped my mother with housework. Next day I was going out with my friends. Other
days I took my dog for a walk.
Every weekend is totally different for me. Sometimes I go to a party with my friends or just
we meet somewhere and we speak. Other weekends I go to my grandparents or I stay at home
and I watch a movie with my family.
To sum up, I always find something to do not to be bored.

Usually I finish school at 1.30 or 2.30 pm. After school I go home and have lunch. If there's
no food I cook something. I like cooking but not this is my favourite after school activity and
I don't have time for it every day.
My afternoons are always different. If I went to bed too late and I'm tired I sleep an hour after
lunch. If I don't have to do anything I go for a walk with my friend and her dog to the city
park. If the weather is nice we can spend hours there.
I play the bass and I have a band so sometimes we spend our afternoons rehearsing. When we
don't have a rehearsal I practice at home alone. I really like the sound of the bass but our
neighbours and the windows not that much.
Later I have dinner and when my boyfriend gets home from work we turn on skype. We talk
and I start studying and writing my homework. After I finished it I get ready for bed and go to
sleep.

These activities are very important for the teenagers, for us to relax and get some new energy from
those activities which we love most. In my opinion every teenager has only at least one leisure
activity which she/he pursues. I also have some of it.
Frist of all, I’m a scout girl. This means a lot and more free time activities. We meet almost every
week with my little group, and every month we have a meeting with the whole team to go hiking, or
have a special program. For example, last meeting was about the Lent and it specialized on our souls
and the Holy Trinity. It was very good and interesting due to the way they showed that. It was a bit
spiritual and not like the other meetings but I liked it.
And the next event is the National Scout Day. I have never been on one of it that’s why I’m waiting
for it so excitedly. There will be lots of exciting and irregular programs. We (scouts) will be able to
visit a lot of museums with free entry and the main point of the event will be in the City Park, where
we will take part in the flag deduction and at the end of the day the flag hoist. So it is going to be a
very special day for every scout in Hungary.
Secondly, I have been swimming for 11 years. I have never pursued it competitively. Although, at
the beginning I really hated only the thought of swim, not to do that for 11 years long. But my
opinion has already changed about this topic. So nowadays I like to swim. It is a good sport, i think,
because you can switch off the world, and be deep in your thoughts for that time while you are in the
pool. It is also useful for example me to treat my asthma. What is more, you can lose weight and get
very strong back and also can get muscles to all part of your body. So if you ask me, I recommend the
swimming for everyone.
All things considered, I always enjoy my free time after school. Either with the scouts, or in the
swimming pool, or with my friends.
