Those people, who want to have an interesting life, must do a lot of things every day. They must have time for work, play and fun. So children and grown-ups must plan their life. A good plan will help us to do everything we want. As for me I usually plan my week-days. As a rule I get up at seven o`clock. The alarm-clock wakes me up and my working day begins. If it is spring or summer I go to the window and open it wide to let the fresh morning air in. The bright sun and the singing of birds set me into a cheerful working mood. In winter I am not so quick to leave my bed. But all the same it is time to get up and I start getting ready for my work. I do my bed and go to the bathroom, where I wash my hands and face, clean my teeth. Breakfast, as doctors say, must be the most substantial meal of the day. While I`m having breakfast, I switch on the radio and listen to the news. As I live near my University, I leave my house at a quarter to eight. The fresh air is very helpful to me: I come to my University in high spirits. Usually I have got four lectures. I return home at three o`clock in the afternoon. I don`t like to do my homework just after University because I am really tired. So I have a rest and then I do my homework. Usually it takes me two hours to get ready for my lectures. In the evening I watch TV, read books or spend time with my friends. I always go to bed at eleven o`clock as they say: “Early to bed and early to rize makes a man healthy, wealthy and wize.

We still have an hour before the show. It never takes me much time to tidy up my room. - Let me help you. What am I to do? - If you don`t mind, you water the flowers and dust the books while I put everything in its place. - Where am I to put this flower-pot? - Somewhere on the window-sill. - Don`t you want to air the room? Do you mind if I open the window? - Oh, no. I don`t mind it a bit! - Now the room looks quite tidy. There is nothing else to do. Let`s go. - Wait a moment. I have to wash up the dishes. - Somebody else can do it, I think. - Certainly, anybody can, but today it`s my turn to do it. We all help Mother about the house as much as we can. - And who does the shopping in your family? - As a rule, Mother goes shopping after work. Oh, that reminds me.
