I have my own player on my desk. There is a lamp between our desks. Of course, there are two beds in our room. We go to bed at 10 o'clock every night. But in the morning we must go to school and our Mum wakes us up. There is a big warm carpet on the floor. There are a lot of books on the shelf. We like to sit on the carpet and read interesting books. You can see many posters on the wall. Jim collects them. I like teddy bears. You can see them on the shelf, on the table and on the floor. There is a big wardrobe at the wall. You can see my teddy bear on the wardrobe, too. We like our room very much.
