my hobbies Because I am usually busy with my studying, I occasionally lack sleeping As a result, I’m vey tired, I always crave for sleeping Furthermore, I realise that sleeping is good for health, my

reason why I decide to eat whatever I like in my free time, just only in that time Finally, watching films or clips is the thing I the most frequently in my leisure time In my opinion, seeing is the fastest way to receive information and knowledge Besides, it can help me entertain When I have spare time, I can not help doing these things
