What are You Like? • What time in the morning would you get up if you could choose? If I could choose, I’d get up at 10:30. 2. What are you like in the morning-chatty, friendly, grumpy or totally silent? It depends- sometimes I am really chatty and other times I can be terribly silent. 3. Tell me about your typical routine in the week and at weekends. I usually get up about 6 in the week, but at weekends it varies- it depends on what I need to do at that day. I go to bed about 10 in the week and often at weekends too. I can never get enough sleep. 4. Do you think China is becoming more of a 24/7 society? Yes, I think China is so keen on shopping that people want to do it any time of the day or night. But you could argue that for some people it is really necessary, so why not?
