#1

Hi! My name is Amy, and I'm a junior high school student in Taipei.

#2

Today, I want to tell you about my daily routine.

#3

Let's start with my morning!

#4

My alarm goes off at 6:30 every morning.

#5

I usually wake up right away, but sometimes I hit the snooze button.

#6

On Mondays, it's really hard to get up!

#7

After I get up, I brush my teeth and wash my face.

#8

Then I put on my school uniform.

#9

It takes me about 15 minutes to get ready.

#10

I always eat breakfast before school.

#11

My mom usually makes rice and eggs for me.

#12

Sometimes I just grab some bread and milk.

#13

I leave home at 7:15.

#14

I usually take the bus to school.

#15

The bus stop is near my house, so it's very convenient.

#16

I get to school at about 7:40.

#17

Morning class starts at 8:00, so I have some time to chat with my friends.

#18

That's my morning routine!

#19

We have seven periods a day.

#20

The first period starts at 8:10.

#21

In the morning, we usually have math, English, and science.

#22

We have a 10-minute break between classes.

#23

During the break, I sometimes talk with my friends or go to the bathroom.

#24

The morning goes by really fast!

#25

Lunchtime is at 12:10.

#26

I eat lunch in the cafeteria with my classmates.

#27

The school lunch is pretty good, but sometimes I bring a packed lunch.

#28

After lunch, we have a 30-minute nap time.

#29

I don't always sleep, but I try to rest my eyes.

#30

Some students read or chat quietly.

#31

In the afternoon, we have art, PE, and Chinese class.

#32

PE is my favorite!

#33

We usually play basketball or run on the track.

#34

"Hey Amy, what do you do after school?" asks Ben.

#35

"I usually go to basketball practice. How about you?" says Amy.

#36

"I go to cram school on Mondays and Wednesdays," says Ben.

#37

"That sounds busy! What time do you get home?" asks Amy.

#38

"I usually get home around 7:00. It's pretty late," says Ben.

#39

School ends at 4:00, and I usually have practice until 5:30.

#40

After that, I take the bus home.

#41

I get home at about 6:00.

#42

I eat dinner with my family at around 6:30.

#43

My dad usually cooks dinner.

#44

He's a great cook!

#45

We always talk about our day during dinner.

#46

After dinner, I do my homework.

#47

It usually takes about one to two hours.

#48

I sometimes ask my older sister for help with math.

#49

Then I review my notes for about 30 minutes.

#50

My English teacher says reviewing every day is important.

#51

I think she's right.

#52

It really helps me remember things.

#53

After studying, I have some free time.

#54

I sometimes watch TV or chat with my friends online.

#55

I also like to read comics before bed.

#56

I take a shower at around 9:30.

#57

I usually go to bed at 10:30.

#58

I need at least eight hours of sleep, or I feel exhausted the next day!

#59

"Ben, do you get up early on weekdays?" asks Amy.

#60

"Yes, I always get up at 6:00. My school is far from my house," says Ben.

#61

"Wow, that's early! I usually wake up at 6:30," says Amy.

#62

"Do you eat breakfast at home?" asks Amy.

#63

"No, I don't. I don't have time in the morning. I usually buy breakfast on the way to school," says Ben.

#64

"You should eat at home. It's healthier!" says Amy.

#65

"What about weekends? Do you sleep in?" asks Ben.

#66

"I sometimes sleep until 9:00 on Saturdays. It feels great!" says Amy.

#67

"Me too! I never set my alarm on weekends," says Ben.

#68

"How often do you exercise?" asks Amy.

#69

"I seldom exercise during the week. I'm too busy with cram school. But I sometimes play basketball on Sundays," says Ben.

#70

"I practice basketball three times a week. You should join us!" says Amy.

#71

"Your schedule sounds really productive. I want to be more organized," says Ben.

#72

"It's not perfect. I sometimes oversleep and have to rush in the morning!" says Amy.

#73

"Ha! That happens to everyone. Nobody's routine is perfect," says Ben.

#74

If I could design my perfect day, here's what it would look like.

#75

I would wake up at 7:00, with no alarm needed!

#76

eggs, toast, fruit, and juice.

#77

Then I would walk to school with my best friend.

#78

At school, we would have only five periods a day.

#79

The breaks would be 20 minutes long, not just 10.

#80

We would have PE every day because exercise makes us feel good.

#81

After school, I would have time for both basketball practice and reading.

#82

I wouldn't have to rush through my homework.

#83

I would finish everything by 8:00 and have a relaxing evening.

#84

Of course, real life is different from our dreams.

#85

But I think the most important thing is to find a routine that works for you.

#86

A good routine helps you stay healthy, happy, and productive.

#87

What does your ideal routine look like?
