Male Female

My daily routine is quite monotonous. I wake up at different times each day, as I tend to sleep in. After getting out of bed, I head straight to the shower to do my skincare routine, which takes a significant amount of time, sometimes up to an hour. I know it seems long, but I can't help it, especially since I have to go to school. I don't eat breakfast in the morning, just grab a coffee and some water. When I get back from school, I have breakfast, or maybe it's more like lunch at that point. After that, I focus on studying, doing homework, and attending tutoring sessions, which usually takes me into the evening. In the evenings, I try to relax and read a book, but I often find myself working on my agenda until late, sometimes even past 8 p.m. However, this isn't always the case. Honestly, I'm not a huge fan of my routine because it feels repetitive and boring. I don't enjoy the predictability of it. But that's life, I guess. I can't skip my daily skincare routine, both in the morning and evening. So, I'm just trying to adapt and make the best of it. That's my daily routine.

Actual audio transcript (What native speakers are likely to hear):

My daily routine is reallyul monotonous. Every day I sleep in and the time when I get up is always different. As always, I grow out of my bed going to the shower to do my daily skincare routine. It takes a really long time. It can be up to 30 minutes, sometimes even an hour. And everyone said to me that it is always really long. However, I can’t help then if I’m going to school. I don’t have breakfast in the morning. I just grab uh, a coffee and drink water. When I come back home from school I have my breakfast, but maybe it is more lunch then. And um, as last I called backfast as always, I study, do my homework, some tutors, all of that is going to the evening. Consequently, at the evening I can read the book. I’m actually trying to rest at the evening to do all of my agenda to um. 08:00 p.m. never. Nevertheless, it is not regularly like that. Honestly, I’m not into my routine because it feels boring and monotonous. I do like when everything is repeated each day. However, that’s our life. I can’t miss my daily skincare routine at the evening and in the morning. Therefore. Ah, I’m just trying to cope with it. That’s all. My routine each day.

The person that immediately comes to my mind is my English teacher, Miss Fenera. Despite that she looks in her mid-40s, she could easily pass for someone who is in her mid-20s.
