My daily routine♥

I usually get up at 6:45 in the morning and it's always a fight with the alarm to get off my bed. I get ready for school and at 7:30 I have breakfast with white-coffee and some biscuits. I leave home at 7:45 and I meet Valeria, then we go to school.
After school I go back home and, when I arrive, I have lunch with my parents. At 3 o'clock I usually start my homework. When I finally finish my homework I go out with my friends or I surf the net. After I watch TV and at 8 o'clock I have dinner. After that I read or watch TV and I usually go to bed around midnight.
