- Little task, please check it The story below is kind of a home task. The point was to check the grammar and correct it. Because i'm not native speaker I guess the text still full of mistakes. But I can screw it up. Please, don't change sentences, words and constructions, just grammar. Thank you very much in advance! I’ve spent most enjoyable few days in Stratford-upon- Avon with three my friends. We decided to go there several weeks ago and I booked hotel rooms for us in the town. The hotel was really impressive from the outside, but bedrooms were rather small. We arrived quite late on the first evening because we've been working whole day and all we wanted to do then was to have a good meal and go to our beds. The next morning we got up quite late and ate a big meal at the hotel. We spent the rest of the day driving round the countryside and stopping now and then to have a short walk. On the second day there we managed to get tickets to the theatre and in the evening we went to watch one of Shakespeare’s plays. Earlier in the day two of my friends told me that they would rather spend the evening at a pub, but in fact we all thoroughly enjoyed the play and went to the pub afterwards. I saw a woman there whom I thought I had recognised – I suddenly had realised that she was one of the actresses from the play.December 5, 201390
- Why I want to learn English (some kind of an essay; I guess there will be a lot of mistakes))) I don't want to dwell on practical justifications of learning English or insist that the language of Shakespeare is more beautiful than the roses (in spite of that it is not much of exaggaration), or explain how inportant is a fluent English for journalist who I am. I just want to clear up the simplest idea. Each person in our holy Earth is looking for someone special, for soul mate, significant other or better half – you can name it as you want. And everyone knows the story about the city of Babel. People spoke the same language. They wanted to make a name for themselves so that they not be scattered over the world. But God confounded their speech. We are kind of put up on constant search. We are seeking for someone who would understand us completely, love us desperately, support us compassionately and need us obsessively. And our possibility to find this person is much more pale without knowing English. It’s not mockery or just a shot to being creative. The irony is, that a proof is based on my own experience. Recently I was trapped with in situation when I was stuck in a word, almost totally muted and confused. I fancied a guy very much, and I wanted to say so many things to him, to share memories, to become with him as a pair of two people who know each other the best in the world. I gave a shot, but it ended up in a mid-friendship. We were lack for words; we were lack for time, experience and space. And a language barrier is still an argument. I’m certain that falling in love for the first sight is a lame idea. People can’t have stores like in the falling-in-love montage of romantic movie. Let’s bring it down to earth, it doesn’t work. You should have too many lucky coincidences and circumstances, and hit the jackpot of success to make it work. You should not only able to say: “I love you”, but also to explain why. And if you could achieve it you will make friends even with dead. I want to become a conversational wizard.June 28, 201341
- About people in metro I like observing people in Moscow metropolitan while they are taking a nap (or "snoozing" - which word is more appropriate?). It's always some bouts of fun! There are oldies, weirdos, alcoholics, young mommies, youths and so on and so forth. Someone is returning back home after party, someone in on the way to work, someone just have nothing to do else. It's amusing when you notice a person who is tilting to one side, losing consciousness, or struggling with a drowsiness. Psychologists say that you can see someone's real face in the meantime at the time of he is sleeping. I have naps in the metro as well. I think underground has some kind of magical influence to people. You can fall asleep there in the train even you've just had a cap of coffee.June 24, 201340
- About passion to foreign countries Recently i met some french guys. They came to Moscow for the third time in a row! And one of the first questions i've asked them was; "What did you forget in Russia?" I spoke to them in astonishment: "You live in a beautiful country, in wonderful Nice. What kind of stuff grabbed your attention?" They say smth about russian people, they find them interesting and a quite crazy. Of course they mentioned russian girls. After i've met them i thought about my desire to foreign countries. And i figured out that i have 2 passions - France and UK. Exactly in such sequence. What about you? What about you guys, who learn extremely difficult to learn Russian?May 18, 201350
- Time management I can't spend my time rationally and i hate myself for it! I have to do my homework, read a book (exams are very soon), but i surfing the internet, reading twitter, watching "Friends' and doing nothing. How to force myself to do real work? I'm burn with desire to study, to be successful in work, but i'm so lazy. The lazyness is eating me inside. Every evening i promise to be clever, positive, active, but in the end i lay in my bed watching the episode about Rachel's kiss for example.November 22, 201240
