Nicholas describes his daily routine which includes waking up at 6am, getting ready for school by 7am, walking to the bus stop, taking the bus to school, revising and using computers at school, walking home or sometimes getting a lift, changing clothes and doing his paper round, playing games, greeting his mom after work, and going to bed at 9pm. He also discusses debates with friends about poverty in other countries where he argues that children deserve a better future with access to clean water instead of having to walk long distances to find dirty water that could kill them.
