Your English

So, today was my first time at the dentist’s. I had one tooth drilled and filled. It wasn’t too much painful even without anaesthetic. I’m a brave hero and I’m proud of myself!

I even had the opportunity to study human behaviour at the dentist’s. As far as it was a children dental surgery, it was interesting to make some observations about children and their parents there.

For example, the fact that people are afraid of dentists seems to have its roots in the following situation:

There is a queue of children near the surgery, some of them are nervous, some are rather cheerful and calm. But suddenly a horrible scream comes from behind the door. Someone is crying. Why? They do something horrible to him! Mum, I’m afraid, I don’t want to go there!!

But there behind the door nothing happens. The boy who is shouting doesn’t let the dentist to do anything. He is just screaming, sitting on the chair. His mother is shouting at him. He is crying and going into hysteric. But it has nothing to do with pain.

A funny situation:

A boy has just had his tooth pulled out. His mouth is in blood, his eyes are full of tears. Guess what his mother tells him:

-None of this would have happened if you cleaned you teeth.

The very words he needed, I suppose.

Oh, what a difficult task I’ve created for us.

I spent all the evening shooting the video, but the result is very poor. I don’t know what to do, because my camera on the mobile phone doesn’t manage to create good videos. I think that the only way out is to create some presentation using pictures and sound.

And how are you going on with this task?

Hello! This is my homework. Sadly, I don’t have a video or photo camera and I decided to create an simple tutorial for beginners about how to create in Photoshop beautifull candy text effect.

In 2 hours I take the last english exam. Good luck for me!

So, it’s over – we’ve passed the State Examination. I would say it was rather easy – no one was going to give us low marks. Valusik and me have excellent marks, so we are waiting for congratulations

But it is very hard on our faculty to receive even a bit of pure happiness, without being hurt or humiliated. I don’t know why the majority of people working there envy happy students so much that they desire to do them harm.

Remember my words – I would never miss this place, no matter how hard my life will be. Because it’s hard to miss the place where all the good things are fake.

No, not all. The best thing I’ve received in the university is friendship. Valusik, and all the «diaspora» girls, if you’re reading me – I love you! Thank you for this day, which we’ve passed together!

Hey, guys!

Often I visit this site, read your posts, but at every turn I look aside by something.

This week was a very full! I went to the cinema twice. I watched a two movie, they were «Remember me», which I was looking forward to, and «Alice in Wonderland». I got a great pleasure! Also on friday I visited a concert of  chamber music. There a woman, Natalia Kalmikova living in Germany sang some songs based  on poems by Anna Akhmatova, Pasternak, Gumilev, Brodsky and many other European poets. She sang on russian, german, english, italian, spanish and french without an accent! I hope I’ll visit one more concert the program of the festival.

Also I want to ask you a question: «What do you think about internet blog or dairy such as livejournal, liveinternet, tumbrl, twitter, etc.?»

Waiting for your opinion

Good night!

Hi guys!  How are you?

Every day I think that today i will write something here – and every day I have no time. I had 3 exams this week and i have 6 or 7 exams next week, so I’m trying to prepare myself. But.. Actually it doesn’t work…

Yesterday we passed the exam of negotiation or  sales. So we had a really interesting exercise : to present some enterprise «business to business» as you are a seller there, one of their merchandise and to sell it for a buyer.  So we worked in groups of 3 – buyer, seller and  observer. I made a project of one of research agency ‘full-service’ in Lyon. So 1 hour of this work passed really fast.

And today i’m «home alone» So a movie, some cups of tea with honey and big T-shirt of my Sweety – they will make my night Oh, i haven’t chocolate at home…

Have a good night!

As I’ve promissed..

Her eyes are unlike stars
An alive fire fights in them
Once more usual evening has gone
But with her it’s each time another
Her reproaches are bulletins of a cool
Like the grass, which was cut in August
And if her words have no the drop of truth
She is divinely right.

Somewhere angels shout:»Forgive, goodbuy»
The soul thaws as a candle,
The grief has spread on heart.
I’m forever yours, you are no one’s.

Her shining eclipses the sun,
And blood freezes in her shadow.
Such happiness is expensively given,
Wreath, from anywhere you look.
Any jack in her big pack
Will fall as a victim of blind jealousy.
She is one and she leaves me
By the track, which was blazed long ago.

Somewhere angels shout:»Forgive, goodbuy»
The soul thaws as a candle,
The grief has spread on heart.
I’m forever yours, you are no one’s.

Её глаза на звёзды непохожи,
В них бьётся мотыльком живой огонь.
Ещё один обычный вечер прожит,
А с ней он каждый раз другой.
Её упрёки – вестники прохлады,
Как скошенная в августе трава.
И пусть в её словах ни капли правды,
Она божественно права.

Где-то ангелы кричат: «Прости, прощай!»
Плавится душа как свеча,
Разлилась по сердцу печаль,
Я навеки твой, ты ничья.

Её сиянье затмевает солнце,
И замерзает кровь в её тени.
Такое счастье дорого дается,
Венец, откуда не взгляни.
Любой валет в её большой колоде
Падет как жертва ревности слепой.
Она одна и от меня уходит
Давно проторенной тропой.

Где-то ангелы кричат: «Прости, прощай!»
Плавится душа как свеча,
Разлилась по сердцу печаль,
Я навеки твой, ты ничья.

Sometimes there are such days when it is almost impossible to imply positive thinking and positive attitude to life. Though I always try.

A lot of things can help me: a good meal or a good tea, a good conversation or a good hour in silence meditation, a good book or a good song. For example, this song helps me rather often:

And the singer – Israel Kamakawiwo’ole – is great…

First I heard that song in «50 Dates» movie, in the very end of it. But of course I had to hear it in «Meet Joe Black» – but I really don’t remember it from there. Though I love the movie.

It’s not a secret, that I like movie very much. Two days ago I was in cinema, looking the film «What are men speaking about» by quartet «I». Very funny comedy about relationships! I advise to all to look. Besides flashing jokes, an easy plot and excellent actor’s playing I was pleased by a soundtrack from Bi-2, especially «Her eyes» song. How I’ve understood, the text is something from Shakespeare and I undertake to translate it into English in the following post, without peeping in the original. It will be very difficult to keep the rhyme, so I don’t promise to do that, but I will try to transfer the sense entirely.

Hello, everybody! I need your help!

I am looking for tests to determine the level of my English and my approaches are unsuccessful =(

Please, give me advice where I can pass such online-test.

Suddenly they saw the girl not far from them. The dog ran to her and came back in half an hour. He told his master a sad story of the girl’s life.

Her name was Adel. She was born in a rich family, her father was a duke. But when Adel was a child, she met a horrible witch, who cursed her because of her beauty. The witch said: «In your future you will be in need, but no one will help you and no one will marry you.» When Adel’s father heard that curse he fell sick, because he had a dream of all his life to marry his daughter to the King. Adel was so upset that decided to leave her father’s house. She went away, wandered and was sheltered by a poor old woman.

After the dog’s story the boy was thinking for a long time. At last he exclaimed: » Why, but I am no one! I can help her! «

Today in the morning my groupmate who is married to an American brought me three books which I had asked her to buy for me in the USA.

They are: 2 books by my beloved Eva Rice (don’t try to recognize the name, it is unknown) and Alice in Wonderland.

I’m so happy to get them at last! And even more happy that I expected, because one of Eva Rice’s books is a guide to Enyd Blyton’s stories, who is said to be one of the favourite story-writers in England. So now I have 7 books ahead to read.

And – just look at it – what a magic Alice in Wonderland I have! It’s much better than the movie!!!

But he hesitated very much, as earlier he has never done any friends. He was very upset, went home to the mother and told about the girl. Then she gave him an advice: let the dog, who had an ability to speak, will get acquainted with the girl and transfer all words from the boy without a name to her and back. They were walking in a wood for a long time, looking for the girl and preparing the first conversation..

And once this boy was walking with his dog in a forest. And they saw a beautiful girl – she had a pretty face, long raven-black hair, and a slim figure. And she was so nice that the boy without a name decided to make friends with her…

Of corse the boy had a friend. But he wasn’t a man, but a dog. He was very kind dog with understanding eyes. And he had an ability to speak.

(P.S. my imagination is scanty today =(  )

Today I’ve received my headphones and talked to Ksya on skype to test them. i’m quite satisfied and I wonder if you are ready to discuss the idea of a scype conference in English.

What do you think of it? Do you have the opportunity to join us? (Do you have skype? Can you download it?) When to your mind it’s better to organize the conference?

Do you believe in magic? I do. And I have some magic places.. Places, where everything is so special, so lovely and mystic . I like to spend there time, but not very frequently, or they can become not so special, can’t they? But I want to tell you about place, where I have never been to. This place is real, let’s call it Magic-town. Why it is so special? Hm.. because of special people there Well, I know about Magic-town since 2005 or may be a bit earlier. Sometimes I thought (and still think) that there is no another place, where I know such quantity of people proceeding from population percent. I have started to communicate with all these people simultaneously, but later it so happened that absolutely with all of them I’ve stoped to communicate in very short terms. And now they again all, one behind one, come back in my life independently from each other. I’ve often dreamt of how I will go there, represented as Magic-town looks. All it comes back, so probably it is time of magic and executions of dreams?

Once upon a time there lived a family of two: an old woman and a young boy, her son. He was tall and strong, his hair was dark and thick, girls set their eyes on him. But none of them dared to speak to the boy, they were afraid of him, because he had no name.
