Hello! My name is Kate and I am going to tell you my daily activities.

Every day, I wake up 6 a.m. I get up at 6:10 and then take a shower and brush
my teeth. After that, I put my clothes, comb my hair, and go downstairs to
have breakfast while I listen to music. At 7 o’clock, I leave home to go to
school. I start to study at 8:00 A.M; but from 11: 30 to 12:30, I have a break
to eat my lunch, talk to my friends, and also have a fun and relaxed time. At
2:30 P.M, I finish my classes, so I arrive home at around 3:00 P.M, change my
clothes, check my e-mail, and do my homework right away until 5 o’clock.
After that, I help my mom to sweep and mop just a little bit, because at 6
P.M I go to the park with my friends to exercise for around half an hour.
