I am a first-year student of Don State Technical University. I study at the correspondence department and work at the office.
I’d like to tell you about my working day. As a rule I get up at 7 o’clock in the morning, I wash myself, brush my hair and make my bed. Then I have breakfast. Usually my mother cooks breakfast for me but sometimes I make it myself.
After breakfast, at half past 8 I leave for work. The office where I work is far from my house and it takes me about half an hour to get there by bus.
My working day starts at 9 o’clock in the morning and is over at 6 p.m. I have a break for dinner from 1 till 2 p.m. Usually I have dinner at the café. Sometimes I have a snack at the office. During my working day I look through the correspondence, receive and send e-mail messages and faxes, speak over the phone with business partners and perform other important tasks.
I come home at about 7 o’clock in the evening. Eight o’clock is supper time in our family. We all get together in the kitchen, then go to the living room and watch TV, read books or just talk. At about 11 o’clock I go to bed.
