DAILY ROUTINES FOR A TEENAGER

Read the composition
Hi to you all!!! My name is Gregory, Greg for my friends, and especially for Sandy, my girlfriend. I go to Springfield High
School in a nice suburb of Los Angeles. I live there in a big house with my parents, my brother and my baby sister Sue. My
father’s name is Mark, he is 45 years old, he is a vet, my mother is two years older than my father and she works as
physiotherapist. I just love my parents because they are fantastic, really understanding and good fun.
Simon can be naughty sometimes but he is Ok, he’s 13 years old and he is crazy about computers, he spends hours surfing
the net, he plays games on line with all his friends, but he never practises sports which enrages Dad, because we live two
minutes from the sea and he hardly goes there for a swim or a run! Sue is so cute, she’s an adorable baby of 13 months old
now. She walks a little by now, yet she keeps bumping herself in all sorts of things in the house.
I for myself am now 15 years old, I love school, drama and sports. I go to drama lessons twice a week with Sandy. We also
go surfing every two day. You know the beach is so close, so we also go running there once or twice a week. I play the drums
in a band too. And what’s more, since I am an early bird, I walk our three dogs every morning and evening because my
parents are too busy to do that and Simon ……. well apart from his computer! We also have two cats. So, you see, my life is
quite active but I couldn’t imagine any other, I hope you like yours as well as I love mine. Take care!
