Nice to Meet You!
Hello! My name is Emily. I am 19 years old and I am from Canada. I am a university student. I study Biology at the university. I live in a dorm on campus. My roommate’s name is Anna. She is also 19 years old and she studies Chemistry. We are good friends.
I have got a small family. I have one brother. His name is John and he is 15 years old. My parents live in Canada. They visit me sometimes.
Every day, I wake up at 7 a.m. I have breakfast and then I go to my classes. My classes start at 9 a.m. and finish at 3 p.m. In the afternoon, I often go to the library. There are so many books in the library. I like to study there. Sometimes, I go to the gym.
In the evening, I relax in my dorm. Anna and I watch TV or cook dinner together. We like to make pasta and salad. On weekends, we sometimes go to the cinema or visit friends.
I am in the university Biology Club. We meet every Wednesday. We talk about science and do experiments. I also like to read books and listen to music. My favourite music is pop.
That is a little about me. Nice to meet you!
