Now I am going to tell you a few things about myself. As
ready know, my wife, Helen, studies at |
a medical college and js U |
to become a medical nurse. I study too, but not in the daytime as |
does. I am an evening student. Last year 1 entered the North-W |
Extramural |
Polytechnical |
Institute. |
|
|
es,e4 |
If you |
think that it |
is easy to |
work |
in the daytime and to stud |
the evening |
at the same |
time, you |
are mistaken.' |
It takes a lot of efl^ |
I have my hands full the whole week.2 |
Now let's |
take, for example 11 |
last Monday. |
|
|
|
' ^ |
I woke up and looked at the alarm |
clock. It was half past six j |
the time to |
get up. I jumped out of bed, opened the window and did mv |
morning gymnastics, then I ran to the bath to have my morning showei My morning exercises and shower help me to feel strong all day
Then I shaved, cleaned |
my teeth, washed my face and hands, wjp^ |
them, brushed my hair and at |
last |
I was ready to have breakfast. It was |
a quarter past seven. As |
you |
can |
see, it took me 45 minutes3 |
to do all |
this. |
|
|
|
|
|
I didn't spend much time on my breakfast, I had time only |
for a cup |
of coffee and a sandwich |
or two. In a quarter of an hour I was ready to |
leave home. I didn't have time to |
look through the morning paper, so I |
put it into my pocket to |
read it on my way to work. I ran downstairs |
and then |
to the Metro. I |
usually go to work by the Metro. |
|
It was |
ten minutes to |
eight when I was at my work. I usually come |
a few minutes before my time to get everything ready. That Monday I
worked as usual from 8 |
in the morning to 5 in |
the |
afternoon |
with an |
hour's break from 12 to |
1 o'clock for lunch. By |
12 |
I was rather tircd |
but during the break I had lunch, a short rest and I was ready |
for thf |
second half of my working day. |
|
|
|
When |
the clock said |
5, I was through with my work,4 but |
I ditto1 |
go home, |
because three |
times a week, on Monday, Wednesday |
and Fn" |
day I have lectures, classes and lab work at the Institute. And as it Monday, I hurried to the Institute.
When classes were over, I went home together with my friend ^ lives near me. In the evening I had supper, which I ate with great apl* tite and then I had a book by Chekhov and read it with great pleasure-
went to bed5 at 12 o'clock. |
|
|
|
|
|
^ |
On Sunday, when I have my day off I get up a |
little |
later and & |
evening |
I |
go to |
the theatre, |
to the |
Philharmonic, |
if |
there |
is a |
c |
cert, or |
I |
stay |
at home and |
read |
some favourite |
|
book. |
