My name is Timo Halla. I'm a 13-year-old boy. I live with my parents in Helsinki, Finland (芬兰). Now it's December. Every Tuesday, I usually get up at 7:40 a. m. I often listen to music. After breakfast, I walk to school. It's only a 10-minute walk. My school begins at 9 a. m. There are 18 students in my class. Each lesson is 45 minutes long, and there's a break between lessons. I have one Finnish(芬兰语) lesson and two home economics(家政学) lessons in the morning. After that, I have lunch at 12 p. m. I have the other two afternoon lessons—from 12:30 p. m. to 2:15 p. m. Then I go to my ice hockey(冰球) club.
I usually get home around 4 p. m. It's already dark outside. I often have dinner at 6 p. m. After that, I read with my parents for an hour. I enjoy the time with my parents. Then I prepare my schoolbag for the next day. At 9:30 p. m., it's time for me to go to bed.
