As for me, I love weekends. Usually I have very many things to do during these two days. Let me tell you about my last weekend. Last Saturday me and my friends went to the cinema. We watched the movie "The Intern" (=стажер). It was great! Then we went to play bowling. While playing, we ordered some pizza. In the evening I had to do my homework. Every Sunday me and my parents go to the countryside to visit my grandparent. Last Sunday, as usual we went there. We had a family dinner and then went to the church. I like to spend Sundays with my family. So, as you can see, I had a great weekend. But I am sure that the next one will be even better!!
