I get up at 7 o’clock in the morning every day, then I usually take

a quick shower and always brush my teeth. After that I have a
huge breakfast prepared by my mother, I always eat as fast as
I can because Homer sometimes steals our food. Once we have
finished with our breakfast, Me and my sister Lisa sometimes
run to catch the school bus, Once I am there, I greet my best
friend Millhouse and we always start bothering our principal
Skinner, he is so much fun, although it seems that he hates me,
it is not true, because he loves me, actually without me he would
be nothing.

I always walk on my way home actually I never miss one day without walking and skating. I
go skating around the town four times a week, and twice a week I practice other things
like for instance make some jokes to Homer, he is the perfect person whom you can make
fun of, he never learns when you make him a joke, he can fall in the joke more than three
times. But you have to be careful because when he gets angry he can destroy and attack
everyone who is near him, so you always have to run and of course laugh in the process.
