MY WORKING DAY

My name is Ann. I am a first-year stu­dent of the Technical Academy. Now, let me describe my usual working day. My classes begin at 8:30. So on week-days, I have to get up at 7:15. I don't have an alarm clock and usually my roommate wakes me up, and my working day begins. I turn on the radio and do my morning exercises. I don't take a bath in the morning because I don't have enough time for it. I take a cool shower, brush my teeth. After that I go back to my room and get dressed. I brush my hair and put on a light make-up. Then I have breakfast. I love to listen to the latest news on the radio while I am eating.

I leave the house at ten minutes past eight and walk to the nearest bus-stop. I live rather far from the Aca­demy and it usually takes me about a quarter of an hour to get there by bus. Sometimes when the weather is fine and I have enough time I walk to the Academy. It is very healthy to walk much.

The classes begin at 8:30 in the morning and they end at 3:00 p.m. We have lectures in different subjects. As a rule we have three or four classes a day. Sometimes it is very hard to wait till they end.

Usually I don't miss my classes because I want to pass my exams successfully. But sometimes I do, es­pecially when the weather is fine and the classes are boring.

At 1 o’clock we have lunch. That's my favourite time. That is the time to share the latest news and to gossip. My friends and I prefer not to go to the canteen and we often have lunch in a small cafe not too far from the Aca­demy. At 1:30 we have to be back to our classes. Dur­ing the working day we also have several short breaks that last for ten minutes.

Occasionally I have to stay at the Academy till 5 or even 6 o'clock in the evening because I go to the library to get ready for my practical classes or to write a report. As a rule I have no free time on week-days. So by the end of the week I get very tired.

I come home at about 7 o'clock in the evening. At half past seven I eat dinner.

After supper I wash dishes, drink coffee or tee and watch TV. I prefer old comedies. Sometimes I go for a walk in the park or visit my friends.

At about eleven at night I go to bed. I like to read some­thing before going to bed. I fall asleep at 11.30 at night.
