So I like to talk about the late afternoon, especially around 5 PM. Usually, I head to the court with my closest friend to shoot some hoops. Since I am aspiring to become a professional basketball player, training daily is essential for me to sharpen my skills. After a training session, we typically head back to my place to unwind. We usually spend the rest of the evening playing mobile games and grabbing some refreshments. I love this time of day because it balances hard work with total relaxation.
