This, of course, will be different depending on your area/mission and how you chose to do things. But here's a good example of what a day in the mission field was like for me.
6:30 am - Wake up and exercise
7:00 am - Shower/Get ready for the day/Breakfast
8:00 am - Personal Study
9:00 am - Companionship Study
10:00 am - Language Study
11:00 am - Lunch
12:00 pm - Go by former investigators/tract/contact
2:00 pm - Travel
3:00 pm - Visit member family
4:00 pm - Lesson with investigator, with member from family above
5:00 pm - Travel
6:00 pm - Back at apartment for dinner
7:00 pm - Tract/contact
9:00 pm - Back at apartment for daily planning
9:30 pm - Get ready for bed/journal writing
10:30 pm - Lights off
*Yes, we did a lot of finding work. (And yes, we spent quite a bit of time traveling. A lot of the areas in Sweden were huge.) We quite often had at least one lesson with an investigator every day, sometimes with a member. If we were lucky, we got dinner with a member family. Other than that, it was going by former or potential investigators, going by less actives, tracting, contacting, and my favorite - giving away copies of the Book of Mormon. Oh, and during my last transfer, we taught a beginning Swedish class.
*Every Monday (until 6pm) was P-day, every Thursday was district meeting (which, including traveling, took up most of the day), every Friday we had a weekly planning session lasting about 3 hours, and of course Sunday was church (Yes, you do work on Sundays). Once a month we had zone conference and once a month we had interviews with the mission president.
