My working day

Usually I wake up at 7 o’clock but I get up at 7.10. I rarely do my morning exercises because I am usually in a great hurry. I go to the bathroom, wash myself with soap, clean my teeth with toothbrush and toothpaste, comb my hair, shave with a razor. I get dressed and have breakfast. I usually listen to the latest news on the radio.

I leave home for the University at 8 o’clock. I go there by bus. Sometimes I am late for the lessons for a few minutes because of traffic jams. I have lunch at our canteen at noon.

After the lessons at 3.40 p.m. I walk home, have dinner and go to work at 5 because I have a part-time job for a living. My grant is too small.

I come back home very tired at 9 and have supper. It takes me two hours do my lessons (homework). Then I have a rest. I watch TV or surf the net. Sometimes I read a book or a newspaper.

At midnight I get undressed, take a shower, set my alarm-clock at 7 a.m. and go to bed. I go to sleep (fall asleep) at once.
