experience. I can enjoy the match from the comfort of my own home without worrying about

cameras angles and replays, this allows me to watch the competition from different
perspectives and catch any crucial moments that I might have missed during a live event.

event allows me to immerse myself in the atmosphere, feeling the energy and excitement off
the crowd. The cheers, chants and reactions frm fellow spectators create a thrilling mood that
you can’t feel when watching on TV. Moreover, watching sports live offers a unique

with teammates.

after all. The majority of Vietnamese men, my dad included, love to watch football in their
free time and some of them even practice playing football at the stadium which is really
beneficial to their health. Besides men, some women also show their strong interest in this
sport though it’s definitely a male-dominated pastime.

4. What sort of hobbies would you like to try in the future?
Well, If I have more spare time in the future, I will take up playing the guitar. Actually, I have
found this musical instrument interesting ever since I was a kid. It was after a classical concert
my dad took me to that inspired me, I was impressed by that performance and I thought:
“Wow, the guitarist was so talented.” Moreover, I think this hobby will make me happier and
relieve stress after a busy work schedule.
5. Is it harmful to spend too much time on a hobby
Yes, I believe that too much of anything is bad, so spending too much time on a hobby is no
exception. It can have certain adverse effects on people. Finally, you may end up not having
enough time for your priorities such such as family or work. For example, if one of your
hobbies is playing games, and you spend hours playing Plants vs. Zombies or Angry Birds,
then you will have little time for your studies and your social life. So, I think whether a hobby
has negative effects or not depends on how we spend time doing it.
