Hello,

My name is Bart Simpson and Im going to tell you all about me. Im 10 years old and I live in a
small town called Springfield in the U.S.A with my parents, my two sisters: Lisa and Maggie and
my cat Snowball. I go to Springfield Elementary school and Im on the 4th year. I must say that
Im not a very big fan of school because I dont like studying. What I really like is skateboarding
and I do it all the time. I also like reading comics and playing baseball with my friends.
Every day I get up at seven o clock and I take a quick shower. Then, at twenty past seven, I get
dressed and at twenty to eight I have breakfast: cereals, a glass of milk and two pieces of toast.
After having breakfast, I go to school in the school bus. My first lesson starts at eight o clock.
I have classes until midday. Then I have lunch at the school canteen with my friends. After
having lunch, I have classes until four o clock and I arrive home around a quarter past four.
From half past four until six o clock I usually do my homework. After that I go skateboarding
with my friends until half past seven. At eight o clock, I have dinner with my friends and around
half past nine I go to bed.
What about you? Tell me about your daily routine!
Best wishes,
Bart Simpson
