Morning Routine

I usually get up at 7 am. Like (1) After waking up, I brush my teeth and take a shower. Then, I dried (2) blow-dry my hair. Then I put on my clothes before eating I eat a simple breakfast. I usually eat fruits and rice cakes. Sometimes, I eat (3) yogurt. I usually leave at 8 o'clock. I commute to my workplace by train.

Hi James,

Allow me to share some comments about your writing.

(1) I substituted your "I wake up" with "After waking up" because "I" is used twice before and after the comma. Although this is not a grammar mistake, it sounds repetitious. 

(2) I assume that you use a hairdryer. If this is the case, we can use the verb "blow-dry" for that meaning. I also noticed that you use "dried". This is ungrammatical because you have to use the simple present tense (i.e. dry) for actions that recur on a regular basis. When you use "dried", it gives the impression that you dried your hair only once in the past.

(3) There is nothing wrong with your use of "yogurt"; however, I just want to share that "yoghurt" is more common in British English. The choice is yours. 

I hope this helps.
