My Daily Activities
Everyday, I usually wake up at 4 am. I keep my bedroom neat. After that, I do subuh prayer. Then, I’m going to take a bath. I feel very fresh after take a bath. I wash my clothes if I have enough time and if I have schedule on campus at 7 am, I prepare my self to go to campus. After finish activities on campus, I go back to my house in afternoon. Then, I do ashar prayer and take a bath. In evening I do maghrib prayer and task. Honestly, when I’m become a university student my time for sleep is not have schedule. Sometimes I sleep when tired.
