My name is Elena. I'm from Russia.
I'm married and I have a son. His name is Denis. He is nineteen years old.
I work at the factory. I start work at quarter past eight and finish work at five p.m. (or o'clock??).
I 'm usually very tired after work because I have a lot of questions during the workday.
At the weekend I get up late because I'm a night owl and I go to bed late. On Friday night I usually sing a song about an irish drunken sailor. I don't know all thirty seven couplets so I sing just chorus ("What'll we do with a drunken sailor"??? ask I myself...). I think I do it very talanted )). But my family hasn't commented on my singing.

Oo-ray an' up she rises, oo-ray an' up she rises, oo-ray an' up she rises, ear-ly in the mor-ning!
That's fantastic. Five p.m." or "five o'clock" are both perfectly, equally good in writing. In spoken English, it would be natural to hear, "I start work at quarter past eight and finish at five." A.m./p.m. and so on can usually be dropped in speech.
Недавно, по ночам застреляла в моей голове песню из фильма "Иван Васильевич меняет профессию"!
..."Вдруг как в сказке скрипнула дверь! Всё мне ясно стала теперь. Сколько лет я спорил с судьбой, Ради эти встречи с тобой!..."
Anyway, you could say "I think I do it very well ))/ I think I give a good performance/ I think I do it with a lot of talent/ I think I am very talented". That might be better. This reminds me, I meant to do a Discussion question on Russian attitudes to night and sleep. It has always seemed to me that staying up late is more normal in Russia...
