My name is Anastasia and I would like to tell you a little about myself. I am 20 years old and study at the Department of Culture at Saint Petersburg State University. I like to dance and sing. I took modern dance lessons when I was a teenager. Now I'm doing stretching. As for vocals, I didn't do vocals professionally, but I do it well, and at least people say I sing well. Also, my hobby is handicraft, especially scrapbooking. I <s>lI </s>love printed photos and making photo albums. As for my work experience.

I know what it's like to work in a camp, rehearsing until the morning and having sleepless nights. I understand that camp is a vacation for children, not for you. And I really want to make vacation for children unforgettable.0 votedJune 16, 20201
- Mis vacaciones en la ciudad de México hasta ahora Lo primero: ¡Hola todo, y gracias por leer esto, mi primer entrada. Pues, ahorita he estado en la Ciudad de Mexico por 10 dias, tratando de mejorar mi vocabulario, estudiar la gramática, hablar con los mexicanos, oir el español hablado, etc. Vivo con una familia, pero no tengo clases ahorita; es inmersión absoluta. Y después de estes 10 dias, creí que practicar escribir más es completamente necesario (por eso estoy escribiendo aquí así), así como de oír más el español hablado para mejorar mi comprensión. Y otro problema: pienso que ya sé la mayoría de las reglas gramaticales, pero no tengo suficiente vocabulario para usar o para entender a otros. Entonces ¿me recomiendan ustedes algo para aumentar mi vocabulario más rápidamente? Vale, acabaré esta entrada ahorita, pero gracías por adelantado por ayudarme y por responder a mi pregunta sobre aumentar el vocabulario :)September 8, 201540
Wedding
I attended a wedding at 12:00 on April 12. Since the bride was my classmate, this wedding was/felt like a mini class reunion.
When I chatted with my classmates, we realized [that] we actually had graduated 11 years ago; time really flies! During the wedding banquet what most impressed me was that I actually got the bouquet, and it has long been held that catching the bouquet suggests an upcoming marriage for the person who caught it. While in Eastern culture I am of marriageable age,(NOT SURE WHAT YOU ARE SAYING HERE) I really do not want to live Orientals called " A girl should get married on coming of age" .
We need to comply with our oriental culture: girls need to study, get a job, and get married, maybe with the traditionally appropriate level of government assistance and planning (I'm not sure exactly if this is what you mean).
Asian women need to serve their parents-in-law, continue the family line, foster parents and other filial responsibility for others and live forever (huh? I don't understand). In contrast, Weserners have more freedom to pursue what makes them happy. If they want to marry someone then they just do it; most parents do not insist that they marry someone else, and because the government provides excellent support for the elderly, people do not have to worry about taking direct care of their elderly parents. Admittedy I have not contacted Westerners about this much, but I've heard most of those culture that those Westerners told me. (Not sure what you mean here again).0 votedApril 15, 20151Your entry was very confusing in some places, but here are the corrections to what I think you were trying to say:
About myself
Hello, my name is Ya-chih Cheng, and I come from friend Taiwan. I'm 32 years old, so I'm no longer a young girl.
I am not completely sure what you are trying to say here -> My major is nursing, and I have five more years of college, I have been a nurse in hospitals for 7 years.I have no idea what you are trying to say here ->,as every one knows shift stuff is sooo tired,so I require my nurse job last June 30th.
I am now back in school studying nephrology in Kaohsiung Medical University.
Eventually I wish to be a hemodialysis nurse.In my spare time, I like hang out with my friends to watch movies, go shopping, eat, and chat. Sometimes I love to be quite and stay with my cat. I am really interested in English, so I joined italki. I hope I can improve my level and meet some friends.

The only thing you definitely should not do is confuse American and British vocabulary and idioms, as that will confuse many native speakers.0 votedApril 6, 20150
