Benefits of the honey

The honey of the bees is mostly used to sweeten and to make some food, but besides being tasty, it can also keep us healthy. Although it provides few minerals and vitamins, it has a great variety of antioxidants.

1. It is efficient to treat skin wounds: The wounds are healed with bee honey, because it has healing and antiseptic properties, that help to prevent infections and accelerate the healing.

9. It helps to lose weight: A spoonful of honey every night helps to reduce weight because it causes metabolics changes and it liberates serotonin, allowing for a better rest (<--Not sure if that's your intended meaning).

Frustration

Today I felt frustrated when I heard that my boss was promoted. I am working for a big multinational company and our key message is that we should work hard. I am afraid if that if the new boss is hard-working, it will be catastrophic. I am afraid that our laid-back (or easy?) life will be over.

Literature.

Today I wrote olimpiada (?) of literature at school. I analyzed Nabokov's "Storm." I don't like "Lolita," but I really like "Storm." Nabokov uses many comparisons, as a literary trope and associations with mythology (<--not 100% sure if this last sentence is the same meaning that you intended). It is very interesting. I like to read books. I have read only foreign literature, but now, I understand that Russian literature is not worse and may be better :) I love Chehov, Dostoevskiy, Bulgakov and I like "We" Zamyatin very much. I hope you read books and have a good time.

my first page :)

Hello people! This is the first page of my diary. I have just registred on italki thanks to the help of my friend from the US who recommended it to me. I would be very happy to help those who need to improve their english since it is a very difficult and complex language.

Is it the right book?

To practice the language I decided to read a book. A friend of mine suggested Alice in Wonderland to me because it's a very smart and funny book. She was right, but it's difficult for me because I often confuse the different parts of the narrative and, sometimes, I have to read again to understand if I just read a nonsensical story or if I just didn't understand it perfectly!
Maybe it would be better to pick a different book?
Give me some advice!
