About swimming
Swimming extracts about four times more energy than running for the same distance. In part it's because of the water resistance which, as opposed to the air resistance, affects substantially the result. Contestants of swimming even shave hair in order to slow down the resistance. A wet suit raises the streamlining and helps to increase the speed.
The speed is provided first of all with motions of hands. The legs play a less important role. The push with legs in crawl on the chest is necessary only for support for streamlining and not for forward motion, but swimming only with hands is tiresome because legs start pulling down and reduce speed.

When will spring come?
Even if today is Sunday, I was working all day. Now I'm very tired and it is already dark outside, so I am going to go to bed. I'm writing this small record because a few minutes ago I looked out of the window and have been surprised. I thought spring had already come, but it is snowing! It will be eight-eleven degrees below zero tomorrow.. :-(

Some people are so ungrateful. Why does it still surprise me?
I have a friend. He is learning Russian. I know his native language. It has enough common words with my native language. I know it's true. Once I told him that to calm him down. But now he is always using this fact when he wants to complain of the difficulty of learning Russian. He tells that our languages have few common words. He knows maybe just 50 words. He can't know that! It hurts me.. I always help him even if I don't have to do it. I give simple examples, explain his errors. I really try to help him. So, why does he always spit in my soul? Sometimes people are so ungrateful..

The American Russian
Four days ago I met two interesting people. They said me that they are missionaries of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints and came to my country from America for teaching English as part of their service. I was very surprised! They were speaking with me in Russian and I must say that their Russian was perfect because they didn't make any mistake and they had almost no accent. At first I thought they were Russian-speaking people, but then I realized that they are Americans because they were talking with strange pauses and one of them was talking to me looking at the sky. It was so nice! Their Russian was perfect! I couldn't believe it!
