There are many things to do around the house when my parents are away. I can do some of them. For example, I can get up on time. That's very important, because I do not want to be late for school! I can also make my bed, although I often don't do it. I have a lot of homework every day, and I go to bed late. I am so tired that I cannot get up early enough to make my bed. I can go shopping for food, but I prefer to eat at the noodle shop, as I am not a very good cook. But I do cook at home sometimes because it is cheaper.
I can wash the dishes, although it is the task I dislike most. I also dislike throwing out the rubbish, but it is better than washing up because it doesn’t take long to do. I can also wash my clothes. but I can't iron them. Although my clothes are clean, they look a bit messy. It's all a lot of work, but I am happy that I can look after myself and that my parents do not need to worry about me very much.
