Some facts about me Hello, my name is Victoria! I'm a student of the Financial University under the Government of the Russian Federation and, at the same time, I study the law at The State University of Management. A lot of my friends asked me about the reason why I decided to study both subjects at the same time, why do I need it, why did I decide to start it on the first curse, why do I study English so hard. Well, in fact, the answer seems to be obvious for me. In the modern world it's especially important not only to have an education but to be well-educated and broad- minded person, as well. There were two reasons to apply for a second education: first, it was a kind of my dream to be a lawyer but I wasn't sure whether I could do this or not; second, I realized, that the low is closely connected with the risk management that I study at the Financial University. You know, when we're teenagers we are full of dreams, expectations and desires, especially the desire to succeed, but fast pace of life day by day makes us feel exhausted and depressed. That is why we're usually done up after hard working day or after time spent with the family, and forget about our dreams. So I believe that now, when we're rather young, vigor and have enough time for releasing our dreams it's high time to do it or at least just to try it. As for learning English, I believe it to be an open secret that any successful company has a kind of international connections that is why if you desire to succeed, to make a good career, the importance of learning international language is obvious. What is more, every culture, every country has its own peculiarities which are easier to know during the conversation with native speaker on their mother language. I believe that most of us while being a teenager was dreamed of living somewhere abroad, studying in Europe and so on. And I wasn't an exception. However, its an open secret that living in another country alone, without any relatives and their support, surrounded by new, strange people can be very difficult and it takes time to get used to all of it. That is why, if you are serious about going abroad why not to start with short-term courses, try yourself in living independently and to meet your needs so that your you can decide whether you're ready to continue such education or not. That is why I decided to take up language courses in the UK this summer.
