My working day.

 

Tomorrow is Monday. It is my working day. I’ll get up at half past seven in the morning, do my morning exercises, wash, clean my teeth and dress. After it I’ll go to the kitchen to have breakfast. Usually my mother makes breakfast for me. But when she is away on business I make breakfast myself. While having breakfast, I listen to the latest news on the radio.

After breakfast I’ll go to the Institute to have classes. I usually go to the Institute by bus, it takes me twenty minutes to get there. Our classes last from nine o’clock in the morning till a quarter past two in the afternoon. Tomorrow we‘ll have a lecture on  Geography, a seminar on the History of Russia and English.

The students will listen to the lecture attentively and take notes of it. At the seminar they will make reports and discuss interesting problems. At the end of the month they will present their papers on the subject to the teacher.

When classes are over we usually go to the canteen to have dinner. After dinner we have a short rest and then we have classes again. After classes I usually go home where I prepare for the next day classes. I do my home work in foreign languages, make notes of some literature, read magazines. Sometimes I help my friend. We want to acquire deep knowledge in all subjects.

At 7 o’clock I have dinner with my parents. Then we sit in the living room, drink tea, watch TV or just talk. When I have some free time I spend it in our club where I take part in the activities of the club societies and hobby-groups. I go to bed at half past eleven.
