DAILY ACTIVITIES AT HOME

What are some of the daily activities that you do at home?

I wake up at 7am every morning. I press the snooze button five times every morning
before I turn off the alarm and get up. I have a cup of coffee and make breakfast. I
usually read the newspaper while I have breakfast. My children like to have a shower after
they have breakfast but I like to have a shower before I get dressed. My wife brushes her
long hair, and I have short hair so I comb my hair. After I have finished work, I go
home to cook dinner. In my house I usually make dinner. The family eat dinner together at
7:30pm. After dinner I make sure that my children do their homework, and then I chill out
on the sofa and watch television. I usually watch the News. My wife usually comes to tell
me to take the rubbish out, or wash the dishes. Our children feed the dog and the
cat before they go to bed and I tell them to go to the bathroom too. If I am sick I have
to take my medication, but then I put on my pyjamas and set the alarm so I wake up in the
morning. The last things I do is lock the door, turn off the lights, and go to bed. It doesn't
take me long to fall asleep.

Daily Activities at Work

What are some daily activities that you do at work?

I go to work at 8.45am every morning. I usually drive to work. I always check my
emails when I get to work, but I don't always reply to them immediately. I take a taxi or a
train if I have a lunch meeting. I never take the bus because it is too slow. When I am at my
desk I usually work on the computer, even during morning tea. At 1pm most days I have
lunch. At 3pm we have afternoon tea, and that is when we usually talk and eat cake. When
you are in the office you probably have a lot of papers. It is important for you to file your
papers, and so that you can find them again you need to organise your files. When I work I
have to make telephone calls. If an important issue happens, I ask my secretary to organise a
meeting. Once a month I report to my boss, but maybe you have to report to your boss more
often. I usually write a document that my boss can read.

Other Daily Activities

What are some other daily activities that you do?

I exercise at least three times a week. I usually go to the gym before work, but sometimes I
go after work. I meditate every morning so that I feel less stressed during the day.
