My Room

B1

My room is my favourite place in the house. When I walk in, I see my bed straight away. It's a big, comfortable mattress and it's right next to my nightstand.

On my nightstand, there is a lamp that gives off a soft light. There is also a bookshelf next to my bed. I love reading before I go to sleep.

Across from my bed, there is a wardrobe where I keep all of my clothes.

I have a lot of shirts and pants, so I need a big wardrobe!

Next to my wardrobe, there is a dresser with a mirror on top. I like looking at myself in the mirror before I leave the house.

In the corner of my room, I have a cozy armchair where I can sit and read or watch TV.

I also have a small table next to the armchair where I can put my tea or snacks.

In front of my bed, there is a sofa where I like to relax and listen to music.

There's a cabinet under the sofa where I store my CDs and DVDs.

Finally, I have a shelf on the wall where I display my favourite photos and souvenirs.

My room is my own special place where I can relax and feel happy.
