A Day in My Life… By Teresa Pilon

School Day Every day, I wake up at 7:30. I take a shower, and wash my hair. Then, I get dressed and do my hair and make-up. Next, I eat breakfast. At about 9:00, I leave my house to go to school. I ride my bike to school. After school, I come home and do some homework. Every day, I have sports after school. In the fall, I play water polo for my school, and in the spring I do swim team for my school. During the winter, I play and swim for my city leagues. After practice, I come home and eat dinner. Then I’ll do more homework or watch TV. I usually go on the computer, too. My sister and I dressed in everyday clothes…We are standing outside our house.

On most school days, I wake up at 7:30 On most school days, I wake up at 7:30. I don’t have a 1st period, so I have to be at school by 9:00. However on Wednesdays, school starts late, so I can sleep longer. On weekends, I usually sleep until about 10:30 I usually go to bed sometime around 11:00

FOOD I eat breakfast before I go to school. I usually eat a piece of fruit or “Lucky Charms”. Lucky Charms are cereal with a lot of sugar in them. I eat lunch around 12:30. I’ll generally eat some kind of sandwich or pasta. I have a snack before I go to practice sports. I’ll usually take an energy bar or more fruit My whole family tries to eat dinner together, however someone is usually not able to come to dinner, because they’re somewhere else. We eat dinner sometime between 5:30 and 8:00 My favorite soda Everyone likes to eat PIZZA!! I LOVE bananas

I live with my parents, my brothers, and my younger sister I live with my parents, my brothers, and my younger sister. My brothers, Will and Andrew, are 17 and 8. Anna Marie, my sister is 11. I have many friends. I see my friends at school or at water polo practice.

Movies and Television I don’t watch a lot of television, but my favorite shows are ER, and American Idol. ER is about doctors who work in a hospital, and American Idol is a singing contest. I watch a lot of movies with my little brother and sister. Our favorites are ELF, which is a Christmas movie, and High School Musical. In ELF, a man who’s been raised by Santa’s elves, comes to New York City… In the show Hannah Montana, Miley has a secret…she’s really a pop star! In High School Musical, Troy, a basketball star, decides he wants to be a singer. He tries new things, and falls in love, too.

WATER POLO!! Water polo is my favorite sport. It’s kind of like soccer, but it’s played in a deep pool. Lots of grabbing goes on so you can get hurt pretty badly. In this picture, my friend, Michelle, is about to score a goal… I play water polo all year long…it may be physical and tiring, but it’s also a lot of FUN!
