Weekend is the day that people do lots of things, such as take a break after work or
school, relax, enjoy the time with their family, play games, go hang out somewhere, and
so on. At the weekend or during the week, people usually tend to spend the time that they
have or leave themselves from work or school a little bit. Like my weekend, I spend my
time in my grand father and grand mother’s house in S’ang District, Takmao City,
Kandal Province, to celebrate the Cheng Meng event, and I spend lots of my time there
doing lots of things such as preparing and organizing the event, having meals together,
enjoying our own time that we have, and relaxing together. Me and my family’s relatives
always celebrate the Cheng Meng event every year, which happens on the 31st of March
and the 1st of April. People and their relevant relatives come and meet together to prepare
and organize the event in order to pray and wish things that they want in their lives, such
as wishing a happy life, wishing to be more smart and brave, and many more from their
relevant deaths. It is a common thing for the relative's member to celebrate and prepare
the event.
Firstly, me and my relative’s member had a short breakfast, then I and other people
waited for other relatives to come together, and then we started to prepare and organize
the event together. We did lots of things with joyfulness together, such as helping each
other do the work, like bringing the accessories for the event, some fruits, steam chicken,
cakes, and grilling duck. For those whose families have more money, they could also buy
grilled pigs to organize the event as well.
Secondly, after we finished organizing the event in the morning, for the rest of our
own time, we had a short break, relaxing, and we had a big, delicious lunch together. The
food was very yummy, and I enjoyed it so much, especially the grilled pigs, one was my
favorite. And I drank Coke too. Furthermore, me and other relatives’s members spent the
time relaxing, chatting, and playing cards together. It was great and fun, and I enjoyed it a
lot.
In conclusion, my weekend was great. Like relaxing, we had a break with our own
time so that we could do things that we liked. Spending time with relatives was great for
me, like we could talk to each other about our own feelings, for example, discussing life
problems and many more. Overall, the slow pace let me refuel so that I could begin the
next week feeling refreshed and prepared to tackle whatever was ahead. Simple hobbies
and self-love sessions can sometimes make for the most delightful weekends.
