About my work I work on the railway as a freight cashier. My major duty is accounting loading operations with railcars on the line stations and with coontainers on the node stations. Every client who wants to load their cargo must tender an application on the freight office. When this application is conformed the client may begin the loading. I monitor agreements of applications and every morning I give a request os necessary amount of railcars for every client and every station. Then I print previous day loading reports and fill out the accounting cards. Accounting cards start for every conformed application. When the said amount of rhe railcars was loaded the accounting card is closed by the client's and the head station's signatures. Then I prerare a bill for rendered service and give it to the cliet.

My favourite room The room in our house I like best is my bedroom. I lived there with my younger sister when we studied at school. It wasn't only where we sleep but it was also the place where we did homework, listened music, read books, watched movies, communicated with friends and so on. I have so many happy memories of times spent there: daily events such as having a cup of tea (we didn't used to do it at the kitchen) or watching serial together with snacks or homemade pizza. I remember how we made repairs after work year ago - it was tiring but funny occupation. So what does this special room look like? It’s quite big, but not huge. It’s big enough to have two beds, two tables and one wardrobe for our clothes. My workplace was comfortable it had notice board over my table where I wrote useful information like timetable, phone numbers, calendar and remember sticks. There were laptop and organizer for the office on the table. Near the table on the bedside table was printer. There is a large window and door into balcony so when the weather is sunny this room is a large light place. Another point is that it’s the warmest room in parents’ apartment. To sum up, I liked spending time in this room because it’s comfortable and nice place. Now I rarely stay at home for night and rarely see my sister but I have good memories which relate with this room.

Having a university degree Some people say that getting university degree is the best idea in your life. However, having a university degree has both advantages and disadvantages. On the plus side, you learn to make acquaintances and keep in touch with people. For example, you make friends, go out, play sports, have parties and many others. Another point is that you have bigger responsibility but not so much as adults. It means that you have to pay bills, do the shopping, cooking, cleaning, may be working sometimes but you don’t have to go to work every day. However, for every plus there is a minus. For one thing, you have to spend time at university and study some subjects which you don’t use in your life. What is more, at third course you can understand that you don’t like your future specialty and don’t want to continue your studying but you can’t give up it because you aren’t allowed to do it by your parents. And after your study you must work where you are sent for 2 years. Last of all, because you don’t work you don’t have enough money to do everything you want. The reality is that sometimes there’s not to do anything at all. To sum up, although some people think that degree helps you in your life, I think that you make a significant choice and can make a mistake which costs a lot of spent time. Nevertheless, if it is a true decision it will give you useful knowledge and experience.

My autobiography I was born in the east city of Belarus, Mogilev in 1994. Unfortunately, my parents had to work in the city so I mostly had lived in a village with my grandpa, grandma and my younger sister before I was 7 years old. Then I moved to Mogilev and went to school. I didn’t go to kinder-garden. Fortunately my mum taught me to read, write and reckon and I studied easily. My parents didn’t check my marks and I was responsible for my study. I liked studying so I didn’t have any problems. At the last years of school I could not make to decision which university and specialty I should choose. Eventually I did it when I passed the centralized testing and knew the results. I had good marks and chose promising specialty – logistics of transport. First I thought it was a good idea! However, my opinion was changed on the 3th course because I have understood that grade isn’t enough to get a good job. Next I started to get various new knowledge of different spheres. Now I am studying at BelSUT on the 4th course and I have done course of hairdresser, I have studied the cutting and sewing. I am learning English on the evening course and learning programming, economics, logistics, psychology, time management and personal effectiveness and many others by myself. I like reading books or some articles about interesting things when I have free time, for example, in train, bus or on a boring lesson at university. I like self-development and consider that it’s important part of my life. Thank you, university :)

My dreams for the future Hello everyone. My name's Anna, Ann for short. I'm 21 years old. At the moment I'm in my fourth year at university in other city and I often dream about my future. I have big plans and I'd like to tell you a bit about them. My most immediate plans are holiday plans. I'm going to work in my hometown with my sister. I'm going to spend summer at home and I very excited about it because I have friends there. When I return, I have to make a final decision about which job I'm going to choose next year. I'm still not sure - I might be a logistic or I might be a programmers engineer. It's difficult because I'm interested in creation of sites but I don't have knowledge enough. If I choose logistics I will have not so interesting job as a programming but I have degree of logistics. It's so complicated. Of course, one day I hope to marry and have children - ideally, before 30, but I can't plan when my boyfriend will want it because he doesn't think about in at the moment. In my dreams I see myself at 40 running a successful programming company with employees all over the world. We wiII create new sites and, who know how far technology will go, might something else. I’ll have a beautiful house, two nice children and, of course, a husband who’s as successful as I am. Who knows, we might live in Canada.
