A Group (?) Activity

Well, in my life I haven’t done too much group activities voluntarily (school activities and sports at the gym class weren’t something I could choose). Maybe the only thing I did on group was playing football when I was 9, but my mother didn’t allow me to do that because I was “pata’e lana” (and she was right, I broke my ankle  two times :c ) and I never tried it  again.

Since then I’ve only been doing single activities, like painting, cooking, sewing, reading, etc. But now I do much of these activities with my boyfriend, so I can call them 2-people-group activity. One of the activities we regularly do is reading (like a book club), and we do it every time when we see each other. We started reading together last summer, when we went on vacations to Bolivia for one month. The first book we read was The Little Prince (we read it in English, and we’ve been reading it since then, over and over again) and what we do is to take turns and read aloud to practice our comprehension and pronunciation, we also read it in Spanish and we did the same: take turns and read aloud to the other.

It doesn’t seem like a fun activity, but I really enjoy doing it especially because of the story that “The Little Prince” tells, I never get tired of that. And I also like the way my boyfriend tells the story, he talks like if he were a BBC news reporter, so we laugh a lot.
