My typical day
is: I wake up at 7 o’clock in the morning, I have breakfast
with my family and then I go to school. The school starts at
7.55 and finish at 12.50, but it finish at 12.05 in Saturdays.
During the week, when I arrive at home, I have lunch with my
father because my mom has to go at work. After lunch I go to
sleep and when I wake up I do my homework or I have to study
if I have some assignment the next day. If I don’t
necessarily have to study, I usually spend my time surfing the
net or hanging out with my friends. Usually I eat at 8 o’clock
pm. After dinner I watch TV or a film. I go to bed at 10 or 11
o’clock, but if there is an interesting film to watch I can
even go to bed later.

A Greek student’s day
First
and foremost, the majority of students live near the school.
Our school is located in Vrachneika which is a suburb of
Patras.
As a 17
year-old student, I wake up at half past 7 and I have my
breakfast (a bowl of cornflakes). As soon as I’m dressed, my
mum drives me to school (most students walk or go by bus to
school). Our school lessons begins at 8.15 (our schedule
starts on Monday and ends on Friday). Every lesson
lasts
45min and after the end of every lesson we have a 5-10min
break. School ends at 1.50. Some of our subjects are Maths,
Physics, Chemistry, Greek language, Ancient Greek, ICT,
History, English, Latin and some others.
When
lessons end, every student goes back home. I personally have
my lunch at about half past 2. Then I relax for a few minutes
so as to pull out the day’s pressure and stress. Moreover,
Greek students are supposed to attend lessons at tutorial
colleges which comprise a huge drawback of Greek education.
As a student I need to attend such lessons. So, I take the bus
to go to the city center half past 3 (15km far from Vrachneika)
where the lessons are conducted. I spend approximately 3 hours
in the tutorial college, including returning time.
When I
come back home (at about 7) I play for an hour basketball
(some play football, and girls play volleyball) with my
friends and then I do my homework which takes me 2 hours. Then
I just chill out and watch TV for a couple of hours. Finally,
I have light dinner and at 12 I go to bed.
Now,
when the weekend comes I have of course more time to relax and
entertain myself. I usually go for a coffee either with my
friends or with my girlfriend (boyfriend). Also, I spend a
little time playing basketball, as I mentioned above. Apart
from that, on Saturday night my friends and I go either in a
club or to the cinema. But this Easter, all I want is visit
Italy and meet you!!!

Every student’s typical weekday is about the same.
