Hi, my name is Clive. I live with my mother on a farm near Johannesburg. My sister Wendy lives with my father in Johannesburg. That’s not a problem at all because we see each other every weekend.

My day starts at about seven o’clock when I get up. My mother and I usually have breakfast at eight o’clock. After breakfast I walk to school and my mom drives to work. She works as a nurse at a hospital.

I have lunch at the school cafeteria. After school I sometimes go shopping downtown. However, most days I go straight home. On Tuesdays and Thursdays I play football with my friends. On the other days I study play the guitar or just surf the Internet.

In the evenings, I usually go to bed at about eleven o’clock. On the weekends I like to hang out with my friends, so I go to sleep much later.
