Note to recorder:

If possible, female American accent. Not too fast but not too slow either...

We all have lockers in America. It's very convenient because we can keep anything we want in there and we don't need to cary everything around. I usually put everything I need for the next two or three classes in my bag and I leave the rest in my locker.
So, in my locker, there is all the books and binders I don't need. There are also some pens and school things in case I have forgotten my pencilcase at home. I always keep some tissues for when I'm sick and a few bars of cereal because I am sometimes hungry in the day.
Sometimes people decorate their lockers and make it very personal, but there isn't much decoration in mine. There is just my timetable and a picture with my friends.

Rarnyr, thank you very much for taking the time to do this recording for me. But I'm sorry but the quality of your recording is not very good and some passages cannot be heard at all. Do you think you could redo it making sure the quality is all right? ... Really sorry about that second request...

I am not sure your second try worked because I don't really hear any difference... The quality of the sound in our recording of My locker (2) is much better though. I don't know where the difference comes from.
Thank you anyway! :-)
