Англійська мова для студентів технічних ВНЗ

I leave the house at ten minutes to eight and walk to the nearest bus stop. I live rather far from the University and it usually takes me about a quarter of an hour to get there by bus. Sometimes when the weather is fine and I have enough time I walk to the University.

As a rule we have three or four classes a day. We have lectures in different subjects. Usually I don’t miss my classes because I want to pass my examinations successfully. But sometimes I do, especially when the weather is fine and the classes are boring.

At twelve o’clock we have a big break for lunch. That’s my favourite time. That is the time to share the latest news with my friends. I prefer not to go to the canteen and we often have lunch in a small cafe not too far from the University. At one o’clock we have to be back to our classes. During the working day we also have several short breaks that last for ten minutes.

From time to time I have to stay at the University till late evening because I go to the library to get ready for my practical classes or to write a report. As a rule I have no free time on weekdays. So, by the end of the week I get very tired.

I come home at about 6 o’clock in the evening. My parents are already at home. We have supper together. After supper we wash up, have coffee or tea and watch TV. I prefer old comedies and serials or films about travelling. Sometimes I go for a walk in the park or visit my friends.

At about eleven p. m. I go to bed. I like to read something before going to bed or to listen to some music. Sometimes I fall asleep while I am reading.
