A day in the life of a university student


1. Watch the video until 1:10 and complete the text below.

Hello everyone,

It’s Alina and I'm back with a new video and no, this is not a joke, I did actually get up at 4 a.m. that day. I sometimes get up at 4 but not every day but yeah I'm just a ________ person so mornings are my more productive time and as always I get out of bed __________ because I know otherwise it's just not gonna happen. And then I just quickly go to the bathroom to wash my face and get dressed for the day to just feel more ready to start the day and be productive and the next thing I do is always make my bed because if I don't make my bed I know I will fall back into it and then I do my make-up to look less sleepy and just a little bit more __________ . And I wasn't feeling too productive that day so I decided to just quickly pack all my things in the bag and go to the library because the library is my more ____________ spot so I put in my EarPods and grabbed my bag and then I went on to put on my coat because it is super super cold in the morning especially here in Cambridge. It is always pretty __________ but at 5:00 a.m., trust me, you want to wear a big fluffy coat.
