This my weekend. I like going to cinema on weekend. I don't go in the week because I am in school. Last week I saw the film ,Castaway' with Tom Hanks. He is american but the film was made in the canada. When I see the film I thought it were good but my friend, jane, who was with me was saying she hates it. She doesn't like cinema much. She prefer shopping and food.
In Sunday we had a walk in park. We walked quick because it started to rain. The weather on Oxford is terribly. My nephews, who were with us, likes to run around but we hates exercise and were very boring. We took them home as fast as possible.
Later, I asked my friend if she want to go to the pub and she said ,YES!'. So we went to bar near my house and the people know me good. We had much fun! In conclusion, I like weekends because I'm with my friends and not in school!
