Sally :    My name is Sally Roberts. I am 15 years old and I am from Lincoln, the capital city of Nebraska in the USA. I live with my parents and my brother.  We are just four people, two dogs and a cat.

Every day I get up at quarter to seven, have breakfast very quickly and then I have a shower while my sister is having breakfast. My sister and I take turns to use the bathroom, that way we don't have to waste time waiting.

Our school is about 12 miles away from our home. We go by bus. The bus picks us up at ten past eight and the ride is just 20 minutes, so at about eight thirty we are already in the school premises.

I don't mind going to school.I don't get top marks, but I manage to pass all my subjects. The only subject I am really good at is P.E.Sport is my passion. I play it, I watch it and I read about it. At university I will get a degree in Physical Education and then get a job as a P.E. teacher.

I am in the swimming school team, we train every day. Next summer we are competing in the swimming state championship. I hope we will get a lot of medals.
