Hello everyone! This is the iTalki account of my sister whom I'm borrowing it and who gladly gave it to me. Now we split it between two of us but I use it more often than she does.
Therefore, I need to tell you about myself. I'm George, 21 y. o. and I live in Belarus and feel pretty comfortable here. I'm learning English as a first foreign language. Though I want to learn two or three languages, I'm starting with English. That's all because I dream of becoming a tutor or a translator. This is my goal, this is why I take some time to read, listen and speak English every day.
The only thing I don't have enough of is practice, so I'm looking for English partners. In return, I could help you with Russian.

- IMHO About The Iron GIant "The Iron Giant" the cartoon doesn't have any cliche, whereas most contemporary cartoons do. The animation classified as 2D that makes it differ as well because almost every modern Hollywood cartoon is now in 3D. Each scene was drown perfectly, the plot makes you not to go away from a screen during the whole film. Moreover, it's the cartoon of my childhood. That's why I never regret spending spare time watching it.February 6, 201961
- The Point of Caffeine & Stolen Adverts 1. Since when do you care about me drinking coffee? Do you really think I do it for fun and good flavor? Oh no no no, you're all wrong man. I drink it to get more caffeine in my blood, because after getting some I feel like Flash and don't want to sleep for hours! I pay for such probabilities with harsh exhaustion though. Anyway, even instant coffee is appreciated in this purpose. 2. A colleague of mine got 2500 advertised booklets (I can call them adverts, can't I?) to deliver each to every apartment. One pile wrapped with plastic transparent wrapping weighed at least 7 kg and contained 300 booklets. It was too hard for her to distribute all of them, so she decided just steal them from special boxes called "supporting boxes" and bring home. She would be work her socks off if she distributed all booklets. I didn't judge her, because I understand that there's extremely huge amount of them and it's kind of overloading. But she must beware of being busted by her supervisor.February 6, 201950
- A Few More Thoughts During Today 1. Having bedtime never was such a big trouble. If I fall in bed before 2 AM, it's tough to fall asleep for hours. Therefore, to wake up, I need, figuratively, to be picked up with a crane or a kick out of my bed. As I get home, I want to do nothing but having a dinner and then a nap. 2. That's a good idea to write short thoughts here. You know, most of time I don't have any subject to discuss or write about, so writing thoughts that were in my mind during a day assists me to keep writing more often. 3. A barbershop has its own stock-taking system with that workers take a stock of their clients. Pretty handy thing, but such the system gathers too many information.February 5, 2019102
- Short Thoughts In My Mind During Today 1. Playing League Of Legends is much better while it's shining. In fact, Playing League of Legends is cool in any weather. (I especially want this to be corrected) 2. Today the building supervisor turned off that effing code of the doorstation. How did it interfere him? Despite he didn't do that for being such a mean man — I'm sure he isn't —, I'd prefer not to shake his hand any longer, because he made my job a bit more complicated. 3. Sometimes I find speaking English much harder than writing, listening or other activities. I feel that the speaking skill is pretty weak, whereas I formulate thoughts in my mind faster. What a paradox.February 5, 201950
- A Stalemate At The Printshop. Part 1 Two weeks ago I ordered three worksheets in a printshop, the sole one in the city I live in. The accurate instructions of what I wanted, as I thought, was given to typographers — I drew a model of how a page should look: 13 lines, 4 columns, sizes, arrangements, it generally supposed to be a chart — and I left the printshop with a relief. Two weeks later I came back. One of typographers brought me my order that look like a huge brick from afar because of gray-colored paper the worksheets were wrapped with. I decided to unwrap them and examine what I got though. Sadly, I got worksheets with tons of lines on their pages. They told me that drown 13 lines in the model meant plenty of them after a heading, but I even told nothing about any one. They also said that workers in every printshop would print pages the same way according to my instructions. To be honest, I didn't know that, so we misunderstood each other two weeks ago. <...>January 30, 201990
- Stalemate This text is too long, I'm sorry about it. ^^ Two weeks ago I ordered three worksheets in a printshop, the sole one in the city I live in. The accurate instructions of what I wanted, as I thought, was given to typographers — I drew a model of how a page should look: 13 lines, 4 columns, sizes, arrangements, it generally supposed to be a chart — and I left the printshop with a relief. Two weeks later I came back. One of typographers brought me my order that look like a huge brick from afar because of gray-colored paper the worksheets were wrapped with. I decided to unwrap them and examine what I got though. Sadly, I got worksheets with tons of lines on their pages. They told me that drown 13 lines in the model meant plenty of them after a heading, but I even told nothing about any one. They also said that workers in every printshop would print pages the same way according to my instructions. To be honest, I didn't know that, so we misunderstood each other two weeks ago. I trapped in a stalemate. Those worksheets weren't appropriate to accept them, so they needed to be remade. They didn't admit the huge mistake, and so did I. They usually understand 13 (or more) lines in clients' models as their desire to fill a page with a load of them, but I, as a client who visited them first time, didn't know that. To settle the horrible situation and go away from the stalemate, one of typographers suggested to pay for remaking worksheets with her own money, but she felt sorry about such a suggestion. It was showed up with her emotions: she got disappointed and annoyed. I didn't want to pay for remaking my order again for the mistake anyway. What do you think, who was right? I'll appreciate you correcting the entry and adding a few idioms. Thank you. :)January 29, 201900
