I do my homework yesterday morning. I read books yesterday afternoon. I watch TV last night.

Sometimes I’m late, only one day or two. On weekends I get up on 7:20. I like doing my homework and playing games and read books. I go to my grandmother’s house after class. We go to the shopping mall with my father and mother to have dinner. Then I go with my grandmother to her house. I stay there for one night.
