My Daily Routine
Every morning, I wake up at 9 a.m. I open my curtains so I can see the sun. The sun helps me wake up.
Next, I make tea and have breakfast. I love drinking green tea. Green tea is good and healthy for me.
For breakfast, I usually eat eggs with toast. After breakfast, I go to work. I work from home. I talk to students all day long. Itâs a lot of fun!
After work, I cook dinner. For dinner, I usually eat chicken with mashed potatoes. After dinner, I watch YouTube. I like to watch funny videos after a long day of work.
I usually go to sleep at 11 p.m.
