Nowadays people do not have much free time

Housewife

I am a mother of 2 children. The youngest is a baby so he always needs my time. My first child is a schoolgirl. She also needs my help in doing her homework. People think that if I sit at home, I have a lot of free time, but it is not true. I am busy all day doing the washing, cleaning, and cooking. I think that I have five or six hands because I sometimes do several things at the same time. So, I believe today people do not have much free time for their hobbies and interests.

Student

I am a student in a Medical School. We study hard all week and also work part-time in the hospital. In the evening, I do a lot of homework, reading, and practical lab work. At the weekend, I rarely find time to meet my friends because I go shopping for food and do some cleaning in my room. I think that nowadays people, mainly students, cannot do their free time activities and relax because of study. I hope that after the university, I will have more time for my hobby.
