A teenager in modern - Russia This week fifteen- year-old Anton Morozov from Moscow tells us about his daily routine. I always get up at half past seven. Then I have a shower and tidy my room. I have breakfast with my parents at eight o´clock. We usually have cereal, eggs and bread but we sometimes have pancakes with honey (it´s called blini). That´s my favourite breakfast! At a quarter to nine my grandmother arrives and my parents go to work. In Moscow students go to school in the morning or the afternoon. In the morning I often do my homework.

I´m never late. At the end of the day, I leave school and go home at half past eight. After that, I have dinner. Then I listen to music and download songs. My favourite band is Foo Fighters.
