Every Monday, I get up at 8 o'clock. I always get dressed in my school uniform because it is a school day. I have breakfast; usually toast and milk then I catch the bus to school. In the mornings I study English and maths. The teachers usually give us homework. After, it is lunch. I always eat quickly so I can go to the park. After lunch, I have science and religion.  Then I go home. I do my homework and then watch tv. Finally, I go to bed. I often dream of the weekend on Mondays.
