How I spent my spring holidays
I love spring and I always look forward to having spring holidays. This year was no exception. I can say I enjoyed that week off school even though I spent it at home without any trips.
The best part about these holidays was that I didn't have to wake up early, so I stayed up really late. I watched a few episodes of my favourite anime and did some reading for school. As for the day time, I usually spent it hanging out with my friends. On the first day of my holidays I invited them to come to my place and we spent fantastic time playing some new board games. Then we all went to have pizza. A few days after that my friends and I went to the cinema and then we had a long walk in the park enjoying the sunny weather. We also went to ride our bikes.
It was a great week and now I feel a bit sad because our spring holidays are over.

Как я провел свои весенние каникулы
Я люблю весну и всегда с нетерпением жду весенних каникул. Этот год не стал исключением. Я могу сказать, что мне очень понравилась эта неделя каникул, хотя я провел ее дома никуда не уезжая.
Самое приятное в каникулах было то, что мне не нужно было рано вставать, поэтому я ложился спать довольно поздно. Я посмотрел несколько эпизодов моего любимого аниме и читал заданное в школе. Днем я обычно проводил время с друзьями. В первый день каникул я пригласил их прийти ко мне, и мы классно провели время, играя в новые настольные игры. Потом мы все пошли на пиццу. Через несколько дней мы с друзьями ходили в кино, а потом долго гуляли в парке, наслаждаясь солнечной погодой. Мы также ходили кататься на великах.
Это была отличная неделя, и теперь мне немножко грустно, потому что весенние каникулы закончились.
