1. Daily Routine: Past vs Present

Last year, my daily routine was very different from my routine now. Last year, I woke up early every day and went to school from Monday to Friday. After school, I studied for two hours and sometimes I played football with my friends. At the weekend, I visited my grandparents or watched films at home.
