What do I do on the weekends?

Usually, classes in the morning and early afternoon. After that, what I want/need to do!

Today, I went to Aladdin, the used bookstore in Jamsil. I really enjoy going to bookstores but today, I was looking for some books for my classes.

After, I came back to Seongsu and hung out at a cafe for a bit. They renovated the interior, and I'm loving it! It's much warmer and relaxing, and the chairs are more comfortable! Loving it!

What do you do on the weekends?
