How I spent my time in the holidays explanation

The Holidays are two week holiday when we don’t go to school.It is a chance to vist your family and friends and do house chores. We have holidays to spend time with family and relax. People relax by sleeping or watching tv. I spent my time on sports , boxing and rugby, first let me explain my daily routine.

In the holidays I usually wake up at about 1:00pm and go to the bathroom and  have a shower, wash my face, brush my teeth and eat breakfast, then watch tv and wait for my friends to come and pick me up at 1:30pm.

When my friends pick me up we go and have a quick boxing battle,

we put on our boxing gloves got ready, after we were putting on our gloves we started sparing, but it was only training, when we were training we stopped and had a rest. After our rest we went and played some rugby league the teams were Sydney Rabbitohs vs Sydney  Roosters.

When we were playing rugby league roosters had 16 points and my team rabbitohs had 14 points, then it was half time. While we were waiting for the game to start again we had drinks, powerade, Gatorade and our food was some sandwich. Then we went back on the field and played, when I got in the field I got the first try of the half, then 1 one my friends got tackled and got injured. After we had to get 1 more score to win, then they got the last score, but it was a good game, it was fun, exciting and hard.

When we finished playing rugby we went and had some tasty KFC after our KFC we went back home at 3:00pm and went to sleep.

It was trying running, tackling, training and lots of eating.
