Hi, my name is Marina Smirnova. I'm 12 years old and I live in the beautiful city of St
Petersburg. My daily routine is typical of most students my age.
I get up at 7:00 am and after a quick breakfast I walk toschool. School starts at 8:00 am and
finishes at 2:00 pm . My favourite
lessons are History and Maths. They are both very interesting. We have many exciting things to do at school
after classes. On Tuesday and Thursday I have guitar lessons.
After school I go home . We always have
lots of homework. Around 6 o'clock in the
evening, I have dinner with my family.
After dinner, I usually watch TV. Sometimes I play
a game of chess with my father. Most nights I go to bed at 10:30pm and read for a while
before I go to sleep.
