Now it’s 7 o’clock. Good morning!
I always get up early. I don’t like sleeping long hours.
For breakfast, I usually eat porridge and drink orange  juice. One year ago, I didn’t know what porridge was. But my Russian language teacher told me that it’s a  very tasty and healthy dish.
After breakfast, I take a shower. Now I’m ready to work. I hope that today will be a good day.

Il est maintenant 7 heures. Bonjour!
Je me lève toujours tôt.
Je n'aime pas dormir de longues heures.
Au petit-déjeuner, je mange habituellement du porridge et bois du jus d'orange.
Il y a un an, je ne savais pas ce qu'était le porridge.
Mais mon professeur de russe m’a dit que c’était un plat très savoureux et sain.
Après le petit-déjeuner, je prends une douche.
Maintenant, je suis prêt à travailler.
J'espère qu'aujourd'hui sera une bonne journée

TRANSCRIPTION (explanation included)
These expressions of happiness and contentment span a spectrum of formality and tone. In everyday conversation, one might simply say they are "happy," "content," or even use the term "pleased" to express satisfaction. When the feeling is particularly strong, phrases like "I am genuinely happy" and "I am overjoyed" convey the depth of joy. In informal settings, a more relaxed approach may be taken with expressions like "on cloud nine" or "over the moon," indicating extreme happiness. For matters necessitating decorum, a formal approach may involve phrases like "I am pleased to inform you" or "I am delighted to announce," emphasizing the importance of the news. Politeness tempers the happiness in expressions such as "I'm really happy for you" or "That's wonderful news," demonstrating a genuine celebration of someone else's success. A touch of wit adds a layer of playfulness to the joy, as seen in expressions like "doing the happy dance" or "grinning from ear to ear." In more refined circles, the upper class might communicate their contentment with statements like "I'm quite content" or "I find myself in high spirits," maintaining an air of sophistication. For royalty, joy is conveyed with grace and dignity, as in "It brings me great joy" or "I am genuinely pleased," underscoring the formal nature of the response. Ultimately, the choice of expression hinges on the context and the level of decorum required for the situation at hand.
