	My name's Julia, and I am 27 years old. I live in London but I’m German. I work in a bank and I love my job.
	From Monday to Friday, my day starts very early. I always get up at 6:30 and I have a 20-minute shower. Then, I get dressed and comb my hair. At 07:00 a.m I have breakfast; I usually have coffee and cereal. After that, I put on my make up and go to work.
	At 10:00 a.m., I sometimes have a snack and at 12:00 I usually have lunch at the office with my colleagues. At 3:30 I have a snack again, I usually have some tea and biscuits. 
	On Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, I go to the gym after work.  When I get home, I have a shower again, I prepare dinner and I watch TV for a while. I like to go to bed as soon as possible, around 9:30.
	Thursday is different because I don't go to the gym. I go out with my boyfriend every Thursday. We sometimes go to the cinema or we go out for dinner and to have a drink. 
	On Friday night, I always go out with my friends, we sometimes go to a bar and sometimes we meet at a friend’s house but I can't be home late because I have to get up early on Saturday to clean the house.
 	At the weekend, I always visit my parents and I often visit my grandparents, too.
