How was your weekend? 私は今、昔の友達と会って楽しい週ほ、週末を過ごしました。 I spent a fun weekend meeting old friends. 久しぶりに友達と会って最高に楽しかったですね。 It was great to see friends after a long time; it was the most fun. 私の仲がいい友達はみんなのんびりしていて、今を楽しんでいます。 My close friends are all laid-back and are enjoying the present. だから彼らと一緒にいる時は最高に楽しくて幸せですね。 So when I'm with them, it's the most fun and happy time. 週末はマーケットに行ったり、ビーチに行ったりしました。 On the weekend, we went to the market and the beach. 天気も良かったですね。 The weather was good too. ビーチでたくさん泳いでボールで遊びました。 We swam a lot and played with a ball at the beach. 毎晩バーベキューをしました。 We had a barbecue every night. 友達と一緒に音楽を聴いて、踊って、バーベキューをして、お酒を飲むのは幸せですね。 Listening to music, dancing, having a barbecue, and drinking with friends is happiness. 私は彼らにクイーンズタウンで会いました。 I met them in Queenstown. 私がクイーンズタウンでホステルに泊まっている時に会いました。 I met them when I was staying at a hostel in Queenstown. ホステルに長くいると、いろいろな人と会って仲良くなれます。 If you stay at a hostel for a long time, you can meet and get along with many people. これは本当にいいですね。 This is really nice. でも、今の友達ぐらい仲良くなれる友達は本当に少ないと思います。 But I think there are very few friends that I can become as close with as my current friends. だから本当に大切な友達です。 So they are truly important friends. 私の友達と一緒にもっと旅行したいですね。 I want to travel more with my friends. 彼らは日本にも行きたいと言っていたので、いつか日本も一緒に旅行したいですね。 They said they want to go to Japan too, so I want to travel together to Japan someday. 楽しみです。 I'm looking forward to it. 日本にも仲がいい友達がたくさんいますが、大人になって私の友達は家族ができて、家族のための時間を作らなきゃいけないので、友達と過ごす時間は少なくなったと思います。 I have many close friends in Japan too, but as we grow up, my friends have started families and have to make time for their families, so I think the time we spend together has decreased. まあ、日本だけじゃないですが、大人になるとたくさんいろいろな責任が生まれますよね。 Well, it's not just in Japan, but when you become an adult, many various responsibilities arise, right? まあしょうがないですよね。 Well, it can't be helped. 休みの日は旦那さんや子供と遊ばなければいけませんからね。 After all, on days off, they have to play with their husbands and children. 家事が忙しくて、休みにたくさん家事をしなければいけないかもしれません。 They might be busy with housework and have to do a lot of housework on their days off. でも、子供の時みたいに遊ぶことも大切ですよね。 But it's also important to play like we did as children, right? 私は家族ができても友達との時間は大切にしたいと思っています。 Even if I have a family, I want to cherish time with my friends. 全部大人のことを忘れて友達と遊んで笑っている時は幸せですよね。 It's happiness when we forget all about being adults and play and laugh with friends, right? 私も今は仕事のことや税金のことなどを考えなければいけなくなりました。 I've also had to think about work, taxes, and other things now. まあでもできるだけ毎日私は今、この時を楽しめるようにしています。 Well, but I try to enjoy the present moment as much as possible every day. 皆さんはどうですか? How about you all? 最近は友達とどんなことをしましたか? What have you done with your friends recently? 友達は大切ですよね。 Friends are important, right? よかったら皆さんが友達と一緒によくすることを寝る前にコメントで教えてください。 If you like, please tell me in the comments before you go to bed what you often do with your friends. italkiで日本語のクラスもしています。 I also teach Japanese classes on italki. では、皆さん今日もゆっくり休んでください。 Well then, everyone, please take a good rest today as well. じゃあまたね。 See you later. おやすみ。 Good night.
