Could you check to see if the sentences below are correct and natural, please?

Corrections and suggestions: When we were students, we had summer holidays and winter holidays but now we have a lot of work to do and few of us have any free time for ourselves. Don't you want to go back to your school days?
Comment: much is not commonly used in the affirmative

| When we were students we had summer and winter holidays, but now we have much work to do and (only a) little time for ourselves. Wouldn't you like to go back to your school days? |
