A day in a life

Before the sun shines my clock wakes me at 4 am. I wake up and I go to the bathroom to wash my face and my body then I go to pray. When I finish, I go to sleep for another 2 or 3 hours then my mother wakes me to be ready for the school. I take a shower for 15 min, and then I put on my clothes. After that I go to eat some food, such as dates, because traditionally it gives immunity to diseases and toxins. Then if I have time I go to watch TV or do homework until the taxi comes.

Sometimes we are late for the taxi, because my brothers take time to get ready. We ride in the car and that takes about 15 or 20 minutes to go to the school. After that I take my little brother and walk him to the teacher. I walk about 5 min two hundred meters to my school building. Sometimes if we are not late, we wait until the door opens. We go to our homeroom and wait until 8:45. After that every one goes to their class. At 12 o’clock I have to pray, which is break time. School finishes at 3:45. We wait for the taxi about 10 minutes and sometimes he comes early.

 When we arrive home, I go to change my clothes and brush my teeth and pray. Then I go to sleep, and sometimes I eat food before I go to sleep for one or two hours. Sometimes I go to the gym.  I let the taxi take my brothers and I to the train to the gym. When I wake up I do my homework: I have final Arabic exams I have to study for it. I go to pray then watch TV for one or two hours and sometimes I play video games. I go to pray and then go to brush my teeth and go to sleep for the rest of the night.
