Hi
again… As you already know, I am a first-year student of the
Technical Academy. My parents live in Sochi and I study in
Rostov-on-Don so I need some housing.
There are two opportunities
for me: I can live in a dormitory
(a
students
hostel),
or to
rent a flat
(an
apartment).

I decided
to rent a flat. To make the rent smaller, I also decided to
share
my flat
with another girl – Natasha. She studies at the Academy, too, and
she is my best friend now.

Now, let
me describe my usual working day. My classes begin at 8:30. So on
weekdays
I have to get up at half past six. My alarm
clock
usually wakes me up and my working day begins. I turn
on
the radio, do my morning exercises, take
a shower
and brush
my teeth.
After that I get
dressed
and comb
my hair.
Then I have breakfast. I love to listen to the latest news on the
radio while I am eating.

I leave
the house at ten minutes past eight and walk to the nearest bus
stop. I live rather far from the Academy and it
usually takes
me
about a quarter of an hour to get there by bus. Sometimes when the
weather is fine and I have enough time I walk to the Academy.

As a rule
we have three or four classes a day. We have lectures in different
subjects. Usually I don’t miss
my classes
because I want to pass
my examinations
successfully.
But sometimes I do, especially when the weather is fine and the
classes are boring.

At twelve
o’clock we have a big interval for lunch. That’s my favourite
time. That is the time to share the latest news with my friends. I
prefer not to go to the canteen
and we often have lunch in a small café not too far from
the
Academy. At one
o’clock we have
to be back
to our classes.
During the working day we also
have several short
breaks
that last for ten minutes.

From
time to time I have to stay at the Academy till late
in
the
evening because I go to the library to
get ready
for
my
practical classes or to write a report.
As
a rule
I have no free time on weekdays. So, by the end of the
week I get
very tired.

We come
home at about 7 o’clock in the evening. We have supper together.
After supper we wash dishes, drink coffee or tea and watch TV. I
prefer comedies and serials or films about travelling. Sometimes I
go
for a walk in the park or visit my friends.

At about eleven at night I go
to bed. I like to read something before going to bed or to listen to
some music. Sometimes I fall asleep while I am reading.
