Question

¡Hola! My name is Alejandra Perez and I am 13 years old. I live with my parents in Buenos Aires, where I was born on March 18th, 2004.

At 6:30 a.m., my mom wakes me up. I switch on the television to listen to music while I put on my uniform.

At 7:10 a.m., I have breakfast. I usually have coffee with milk and cereal or hotcakes. After breakfast, I put on lip gloss and some black eyeliner. My school does not like it, but it allows seventh graders to wear makeup. My classes start at 8:10 a.m. My favorite class is Math. I don’t like History. I find it very boring.

We have lunch and recess at 11:10 a.m. For lunch, I have empanadas, which are stuffed pastries filled with either meat; corn; vegetables; tuna or cheese, and also fruit, water and chocolate. At recess, I talk to my friends and listen to music. We like to exchange iPods or send each other text messages on our cell phones.

After lunch, I have English classes. We are studying grammar, spelling and reading comprehension this year. I love everything we’re learning in class!

At 2:30 p.m., my godparents, who run a day care center, come and get me at school. I stay at the day care until my parents pick me up in the evening. At 3:45 p.m., I go to Miss Mary’s class at the center. I love to help her with the kids. After that, I do my homework.

When I get home, at around 7:15 p.m., I walk my dog, Pelusa, and meet my friends and neighbors. After taking a bath, I watch TV. Twice a week, I’m allowed to use the computer. I chat or search the web and use my cell phone, too. I’m only allowed 10 minutes with each friend on the phone, so we text each other.

I go to bed at 10:30 p.m. I’m almost sleeping already. ¡Buenas noches!

Hello! My name is Irewole Adelegan and I’m 13 years old. I’m from Nigeria and I live in Suleja, with my mom, my sister Olu and my aunt. I attend Bishop James Yisa Secondary School. I’m in the 7th grade.

The alarm clock wakes me up very early, at 5:30 a.m. I freshen up and join my mom and my sister in the living room for a brief prayer session. Then, I wash the dishes, sweep the floor, fetch water for the toilet and take a bath.

I wait for the school bus near our house at 7:30 a.m. Olu takes a later bus. My bus is usually filled to the brim. I squeeze my way in and 20 minutes later we arrive at school.

School starts at 8:00 a.m., with an assembly of all the students. The principal, Mr. Abraham, warns the senior students against bullying and advises us to be obedient.

Our first class of the day is government. This week, we are learning about the process of drafting and approving bills. It is quite interesting. Next, it is time for a lesson from our business teacher. In our Biology class, we are studying the human digestive system.

At 10:15 a.m., we have a break and then we have Bible-knowledge class. Later, we have a free period, but we are not allowed to leave the classroom.

At 12:50 p.m., we go to the computer room. This month, we are learning Microsoft Word. School is over at 4:00 p.m. What a day! The school bus drops my sister and me at home. I wash our school uniforms and socks.

It’s 7:00 p.m. – dinnertime! We are having amala and palm-nut soup now. Amala is made from ground dried cassava. After that, we leave for the evening service at church. When we return home, we watch a popular soap opera called Super Story.

It’s 10:00 p.m. now. I am very tired and yawning. I’m going to take a shower and then I am off to bed.
