I think the
most terrible thing in life for my little brother
is getting up in the
morning. He
is almost
sick when
my mother
calls,
o'clock!
Get
up!
Herbert answers,
my brother. I don't like to go to bed
at night but I don't mind getting up in the
morning. I usually wake
up
before my
mother calls me. I jump
out
of bed
and go
into
the
bathroom
to
take
a
shower.
I
get
dressed,
brush
my
teeth,
comb
my
hair,
and
get
ready to go downstairs for breakfast as
soon as my mother calls.
But not
Herbert. He just sleeps. A military band
(

not
wake him up. I call him and say,
bed if you don't get up
immediately!
But he just sleeps. After
calling a few more times my mother has to come
upstairs
and
pull
Herbert
out
of
bed.
It's
that
way
every
day
with
my
little
brother.
Perhaps
some day he'll learn to get up on time,
but I really don't think so.

up
early in the morning.
