So, Joseph, are you ready to begin our day? I'm fully ready, let's go. Youssef, let's start from the beginning, from the very first moment. In. What time do you usually wake up today? Good question to start with. I usually wake up early. I love mornings, I wake up at six o'clock. Good morning, Loli. Six o'clock? Wow, that's very early, Youssef. I like to sleep a little more. I wake up in 7:30.
7:30 is also a good time, but tell me. How do you wake up? Do you use an alarm clock? Yes, of course, the phone is the alarm clock. I set the alarm on. At 7:30 the phone rang and I. I open my eyes with difficulty. I know that feeling; the sound is annoying in the morning. I also use the phone; when it rings, I sit down. The bed for five minutes.
Five minutes, what do you do in these minutes? I just sit and think about the day, saying to myself, "Good morning." Good morning, Joseph. Today is a new day. So get up from there. bed. This is a nice, quiet start. I don't do that. Get up, because I always feel like I'm late.
What do you do immediately after getting out of bed? First thing I do is go to the bathroom and wash my face with water. Cold water helps me wake up. Cold water is very refreshing; I also wash my face with it. I brushed my teeth with a toothbrush and toothpaste for cleanliness. Very important in the morning. Of course, brushing your teeth gives a feeling of freshness.
After the bathroom, go to the kitchen. The kitchen is. My favorite place in the morning. Why do you prefer eating in the morning? (Not the food itself). Exactly, I love coffee, I can't begin. My day without coffee... the smell of coffee in the morning is life. I completely agree with you, coffee is essential, but. Tell me, what kind of coffee do you drink? I love black coffee without sugar and without. Strong, hot milk, and you? I'm a little different; I don't drink coffee immediately. I prefer tea in the morning, a large cup of. Tea with a little milk. This milk tea looks delicious and calming. Do you eat breakfast with tea? Yes, breakfast is a meal. It's important to me that I eat eggs, usually boiled eggs or. Fried with bread, of course. Wow, a healthy and nutritious breakfast! I sometimes don't eat. Breakfast is just coffee and sometimes I eat something light. Like a piece of biscuit or a banana. Bananas are good and quick to give you energy.
Think with us, friends, what are you doing in. Do you drink coffee in the morning like Lolly or. Tea, like Joseph, do you eat eggs? Think about it. Your answer.
Okay, Lolly, we drank coffee and tea and ate. Breakfast is now, time for clothes. Yes, I need to change my clothes. I'm taking off my. Sleep and wear work clothes. Do you choose your clothes quickly or do you take your time? long. Honestly, sometimes it takes me a long time to open it. The closet, and look what I'm wearing today, this shirt. Is this what? This is difficult sometimes. I'm a simple man, I have shirts and trousers. If they are similar, choose a white or blue shirt. And black pants, and it was over in just two minutes. You're lucky, Youssef. I love colors and I love. The change is after I get dressed, then I'm ready to go out.
When will you leave the house? I leave at eight o'clock, a quarter of the workday begins. It's 9 o'clock, I need time for the journey. Do you drive to work? No, I don't have a car right now. I use. Public transportation: Take the bus to the station. The bus is close to my house. And what's the bus like in the morning? Is it crowded? Oh yes, it's very crowded, lots of people go to. Work, university, and schools. Sometimes I can't find a chair to sit on, so I stand all day. The road. May God help you, standing there tired. In the morning I go in my car, but the problem is. The streets are congested with very many cars, and everything. People are in a hurry. Yes, morning traffic is a problem everywhere. The journey takes you. I listen to the radio or podcast for about half an hour. Time flies when you're in the car. Listening to podcasts is a fun idea, Youssef. Very useful, like our friends who are listening now. for us.
Exactly, upon arriving at work, what do you do first? Why don't you get to the office? I arrive at the office and say good morning to my colleagues. And my colleagues, this is important: smiling and greeting. Good relationships at work are indeed important. Start working immediately. I'm practically sitting at my desk, turning on the device. Open the computer and start reading your email. Emails. Reading emails is always the first step. I do that too; sometimes I have. Morning meetings. Meetings. Do you like meetings, Youssef? Not always, sometimes meetings are long. It's boring, but sometimes it's useful to know what. We will. I work a lot on the computer writing reports. Contacting customers is important; time flies at work. When I'm busy.
When do you take a break? Lunch break. Our break is at 1 PM. I eagerly await this hour; I'll be hungry. very. What do you usually eat for lunch? Do you prepare [something]? Home-cooked food. Sometimes I bring food from home, like salad or. I eat sandwiches, and sometimes I go out with my friends to buy [something]. Food from a nearby restaurant. Going out with friends changes the atmosphere and rejuvenates the body. For the second half of the day. And you, Joseph. I usually eat a light sandwich and drink juice. I don't like heavy meals so that I feel sleepy. Too much food makes us very intelligent. We feel sleepy after lunch, we go back to work until. Five o'clock. 5 PM, time to go out, time of freedom. Yes, it's time for freedom. I leave the office feeling tired. A little, but I'm happy because I'm going home.
Are you going back home? Directly, or are you going somewhere else? To another place? I usually go straight home, but sometimes I'm going to the supermarket to buy some. Essentials: bread, milk, fruit. Shopping after work can be tiring sometimes, but it's essential. I sometimes go to the gym. Before returning home. Wow, you have the energy for sports after work! I try that exercise relieves mental fatigue and stress. I'll run a little, lift some weights, then return to. Home and a clear conscience. This is great. I prefer the comfort of home when. The first thing I usually do is change out of my work clothes. طبعا ملابس البيت مريحه وواسعه وماذا. What do you do next? I'll sit on the sofa for a bit, relax, maybe browse. I'm on the phone talking to my mom or sister. Talking to family is a beautiful thing. It removes the day's fatigue.
Let's ask our listening friends, think for a moment. What do you do after work or school? Do you prefer sleeping, exercising, or watching TV?
We're back, Lolly. What about dinner? You cook in the evening. I love cooking, but not every day if I. I'm tired, so I'll cook something easy and quick, like pasta. Pasta is easy and delicious, everyone loves it. Yes, and sometimes I make warm vegetable soup and you Joseph, are you cooking? I. I am not a skilled cook; I help my wife with. Setting the table or washing the dishes after eating. Help is very important, Youssef. Well done on your participation. There is something great in the house.
After dinner, how do you spend your time in the evening? Evenings are my special time; I love watching TV series. Or I sit in front of the television and watch movies. An episode from a favorite series. This is fun. I love reading before bed. Hold on. I read a book in peace; reading helps me to. Relaxation. Reading is a wonderful habit. I read sometimes, but. Watching TV is easier when I'm tired.
When do you go to sleep, Loli? I try to go to sleep early, but I don't always succeed. I usually go to sleep at 11 o'clock at night. Eleven o'clock is a reasonable time; I usually go to sleep at that hour. It's 10:30 because I wake up at 6:00. As I told you. Is it true that you wake up very early before going to sleep? You are doing something specific. I prepare my clothes for the next day and make sure that. The alarm goes off and I say goodnight to my family. I also wash my face again and brush my teeth. Go to bed and that's how the day ends. A long day filled with simple events, but this. Our routine is our life; it gives us order. It's true that sometimes we feel bored with the routine, but. It is important for us to get our work done.
Let's summarize what we said today, Lolly, in a few words. Very simple for our friends. Excellent idea, firstly, waking up. I wake up in the morning, and then in the morning I wash up. I drink coffee or tea and eat breakfast. Thirdly, going to work or school. By car or bus, fourthly, work. I talk to my colleagues on the computer. Thirdly, for lunch, eat a sandwich or salad. The sixth rest stop is the return. I went home to rest and change my clothes. Fifth, in the evening, cook dinner and eat with the family. Seventh, relaxation: I watch TV or read. Book. Finally, sleep. I sleep at night to begin a new day. New. Simple words, actions we use every day: Wake up. Eat, drink, go do work, come back and sleep. Try, my friends, to use these words. To describe your day, talk to yourselves in the language. In Arabic, say, "I'm drinking coffee now." Now going to work. This is excellent training; don't be afraid of making mistakes. Just talk.
