My survey
revealed that people in the age of 15 to 25 have enough free time. Sleeping,
educational, leisure and sport activities take up more than half the day.
People in this age group spend 8 hours sleeping, 4 hours for education, leisure
and sport activities.
Watching TV
is the leisure activity that occupies the most of the time (3 hours per day),
accounting for about half of leisure time, on average, for age 15 and over.
Socializing, such as hanging out with friends (going to the cafes, cinemas,
theaters and grooming) is the next most common leisure activity, accounting for
nearly three-quarters of an hour per day.
There are a
little group of people who spend 2 hours of their time on joining some new
hobbies such as: doing clothes, dancing, photography, making jewelry and
gardening.
On an
average day, nearly everyone age 15 and over engaged in some sort of leisure
activity, such as watching TV, socializing, chatting on the phone, and girls
like gossiping for many hours, shopping, listening to music and cooking. Time
spends on reading for personal interest, playing games and using a computer for
leisure is what our people do on a weekend.
Surprisingly,
very few of my respondents feel that they waste their time. Some of them think
that chatting on the phone and watching TV is the way to waste time. Also, some
very hard-working students wants to waste one day of their limited life, they
devoted it to relaxing and doing nothing, reading and walking.
We spend
our time in mindless activities, especially on weekend and when we are tired or
even exhausted.
