Hi! My name is Patricia. Everyday I usually wake up at seven o’clock but I just get up ten minutes later. Then I go to the bathroom to have a shower. After having the shower, I go downstairs and have my breakfast. At eight o’clock I go to school by car. My classes start at a quarter past eight. During the breaks, in the playground, I talk with my friends. They are very cool and important to me, too. My classes finish at four o’clock. I usually go back home on foot with Yaros, Bernardo, Pedro and Sofia. I have lunch at half past five but before that I do my homework. I hate having homework to do!… Later I play computer games or video games on my playstation. At eight o ‘clock I have dinner with my family. After dinner I watch my favourite programmes on TV and at ten o’clock I go to bed.

My father always helps my mother cooking our meals. He always does the washing up and plays computer games with me. My sister usually helps me with the homework, tidies up her bedroom and lays the table for dinner. And me, well I’m the youngest in the family! I always make my bed, tidy up my bedroom and wash my father’s car at the weekend. I also help my mother when she goes shopping at the supermarket.

Then I take my breakfast and leave the house to go to school. But first I go to my cousin’s and we go to school together on foot.
