Writing assignment: do I have an active
lifestyle?
I would not say I am a particularly
active person, but I am not all super relaxed either. I am the kind
of person that likes to do stuff (and sometimes I feel like I have
to) but I am also a bit lazy and like to chill out.
I try to get out of the house and make
something out of my day, and on some days that can mean walking
around, looking at stuff and experiencing different things all day.
Other days I go for a run or swim or do some kind of sport for a bit,
then i just relax in the afternoon. I must admit I am a lazy person,
so I have my super-lazy days as well.
In the summer I sometimes struggle to
find the motivation to exercise, but there are so many other fun
things you can do when you don´t have school or homework. Spending
the hole day outside in the sun, going to the beach or the park and
hanging out with friends is allways a winner. Some of the best
memories I have are from long nights and lazy days in the summer.
In the winter I like going snowboarding
and being outside in the snow. Norwegian winters are filled with cold
mornings, dark days and metres of snow. I must admit I am tempted to
cuddle up and spend the afternoon in front of the fireplace drinking
tea and reading a good book. It can be hard to get out of the house,
but the handball and snowboard season are both at this time, so I
actually have a lot of fun being active with my friends.
As for my lazy days, there are some of
those too. But you have to enjoy life, and I really like taking a
day off to just wear sweats all day and do exactly as i want. And
when I have had one of those days, it feels great to get back to
doing things and having fun.
I enjoy my life by balancing a relaxed
but not dead lifestyle, and I have fun in all seasons and weather.
