get up as fast as I can. I take a two-minute shower, the brush my teeth ang get dressed.
After that I have breakfast, I usually have cereal, black coffee, or a glass of milk. By
that time, it is 7:15 am. If I’m feeling lazy to wait for the bus, I grab my skateboard and
go to school. Of course, I am a pro and I arrive at 8:10am (School starts at 8:15am). I’m
always on time, that’s what I call timing. Lunch break is at 12:30pm and school ends at
3:00pm. I get home until 4:00pm and the first thing I do is going to bed and sleep for 2
hours. I like to eat at 6 more or less. At 7pm I like to go to the ceiling and stare at the
sunset. At 9 I do my homework and house chores and sleep at 11:00pm. On Saturdays I
like to go swimming and run in the beach. Finally, on Sundays I like to sleep the entire
day and clean my house relaxed, that’s why I love Sundays.
