Every year I have winter holidays. They usually last for two weeks. Holidays give me the opportunity not to get up early in the morning, so I sleep till 10 o’clock.When the weather is cold, I prefer to stay at home and read something interesting, play computer games or watch TV. As I spend lots of time at home, I have to help my mother with cooking or cleaning.  In the evening I usually visit my friends or go out with them to the cinema or café.
My hobby is mountain skiing, so when the weather is fine I go skiing.  When I come back home I am usually very tired and go to sleep after supper.
Of course, winter holidays are not so long and joyful as summer holidays, but in any case winter holidays is the time of rest
