Write about your daily schedule:

Example:

Amelia
I have a very busy day. I get up at 7:15, and I eat breakfast at 7:30. Then I take a shower, get dressed, and I go to work. I teach from Monday to Friday, from 9 to 1. I usually eat lunch around 1:30. I prepare lessons until 5, and then I leave work. I arrive home at 5:30, watch TV until 6:00. I eat dinner and exercise until 10, and then I read a book until 11. Finally, I go to sleep.

What do you do in the morning? What do you do in the afternoon? What do you do in the evening?
