MY MORNING
It seems my life is always very full of activities and obligations so I never have much
time for myself. During the week it's the worst. I usually have to get up at half past six even
though I would really prefer to sleep much later. After I get up, I wash my face, clean my teeth,
and then decide what to wear. After I get dressed, I brush my hair. I usually don’t have time for
breakfast in the morning because I have to catch a bus at seven o'clock. The bus is usually
completely packed and it really makes me envy my co-workers who don't have to ride the bus
to work.
