MY WORKING DAY
Hello, my name is Tina. I am going to tell you about my working day. I am 18 years old.
I study five days a week so on week-days I usually get up at 7 o’clock. I make my bed, open the window and do my morning exercises. Then I go to the bathroom where I clean my teeth and wash myself. If I have enough time I take a cold and hot shower. After bathroom I go back to my room where I dress myself and brush my hair. In ten minutes I am ready for breakfast. It may be a cup of tea or coffee and a sandwich.
After breakfast I put on my coat, take the bag and go to the University. As I live not far from the University it takes me only five or seven minutes to go there. I don’t want to be late for the first lesson so I come to the University a few minutes before the bell. I leave my coat in the cloakroom and go upstairs to the classroom.
The lessons begin at half past eight in the morning and they are over at half past three in the afternoon. After classes I go home and have dinner there. I have usually something substantial for dinner, for example, cabbage soup for the first course, hot meat or fish with some vegetables for the second. Then I take a cup of tea or milk. Sometimes when I have to stay at the University after classes I go to the University canteen and have dinner there.
After dinner I have a short rest, read newspapers, make some telephone calls, go to the bakery. Then I do my homework. We study many subjects at the University and it takes me three or even more hours to do the homework. Sometimes I go to the library to get ready for my practical classes or to write a report. I can also read my favourite newspapers and magazines there. As a rule I have no free time on my week-days.
Eight o’clock is supper time in our family. We all get together in the kitchen, then go to the sitting room and watch TV, read books or discuss different problems. Twice a week I go to the University in the evening to play volleyball. I am a member of the University volleyball team and we have our training rather late. I am also fond of computers and spend some evenings in the Internet café with my friends.
At about eleven at night I go to bed.
