The electoral system you have described in your message is indirect multistage elections that are unfair, discriminatory and dishonest for most people living in a particular country. All of them have the right to choose the head of state!
Unlike indirect multistage elections, direct elections are the most democratic way of forming representative institutions, effectively expressing the will of voters and giving the opportunity to exercise the right to recall deputies who did not justify their trust.
An example of direct elections is presidential elections in Russia, which are also general, equal and secret.

Я работаю в маленькой фирме в Лондоне уже более десяти лет , потому что мне это нравится. Что именно мне нравится?
Во-первых, у нас веселый коллектив и мне нравится общаться с коллегами.
Во-вторых, у меня ненормированный рабочий день, я имею возможность работать дома в онлайн режиме , что позволяет мне заниматься детьми днем и работать вечером.
В-третьих, мне приятна и интересна сама работа.
Я занимаюсь всякими делами, включая маркетинг, финансовые операции, разбираюсь в разных мелких деталях.
К тому же, я живу довольно далеко от работы, и мне приходится добираться до офиса поездом целый час в обоих направлениях. Я люблю сидеть в поезде и читать книгу, погрузившись в свои мысли , не думая о домашнем хозяйстве, детях и так далее.
Если кто-то сможет исправить мои ошибки, буду очень признательна!

Oh, it's a very long list and I'm really sorry, that I didn't do all my tasks. We live in a 24/7 culture in which our task lists seem to be constantly growing and making us worry about unfinished tasks. I want to end all my to-do lists, but sometimes it's not possible. I'm a mother and right now I take care of my kid. I am on maternity leave and don't work now. My time is no longer my own and it's the worst thing as a mother, I think. But I single out the really important tasks from my to-do list and try to find the time for them. It's always my English exercises, a little bit of sport and reading new books. I hope that I'll have more time when my son gets older and my to-do list will have less tasks.

Since I have decided to learn English and to work seriously about it, I have learned a lot about myself.
Firstly, I must be very patient and kind to myself. Nothing can be done in one day.
Secondly - perseverance. Sometimes I get annoyed because I can't see me progressing and I want to give up. Each time I want to give up, I remember all efforts that I have made until now.
Learning a new language is not an easy task for me but I have learned a lot about myself. I learn how my brain works and I try to do better than I did yesterday. I can really say, I am proud of myself.

I was working in a Casino as a dealer in the early 2000s. We all collectively decided to jump by parachute. Before the jump we had professional training. When the day came, I was a little nervous because it was my first jump. I thought It would be my last one.
The plane took off and started to gain altitude. This hell machine was moving clockwise. I was sitting on the right side close to the exit. Soon, we opened the door and I was on the edge of the abyss. My breath caught every time the plane came in a new circle and wheeled in my direction. I thought it was trying to throw me off before it got to the right height, so I held on to the metal bench as tight as I could.
We got to the correct height. And the guide told us: “You should stand as close to each other as you can. I second delay is 100 metres to the side when you land. Squeeze the balls. I command you go out through that damn door”. And I went. We had trained a lot, so I grouped myself, counted slowly to 7 and while I was turned over several times by a stream of air, finally managed to pull the ring out.
When the rotating stopped I saw the whole beauty of the earth from a bird`s eye view. It was very quiet up there. I realized I was feeling my breath and hearing the wings of flying birds rustle. This extraordinary state didn`t last long and after a minute I started to fall down three times faster. The closer the land was the faster I fell. At the same period of time, I realized the ground left me under my feet. This meant, according to the training I had done, I was flying forwards with my back. I had to pull myself up by the cords and turn over to the approaching land. I was trying hard and when I almost did it the land said "Hello" to me.
It was a hard landing. When I woke up, the tiny stars still flew in in front of my eyes. Close to me, I could hardly make out a dark spot in the distance. While I was feeling for my legs, the stain asked me in a trembling voice: “Boy, are you alive?”. I looked around and recognized my companion as someone’s granny. In her hands was a hoe. Apparently, she had been busy with the garden, before I landed. I was lying in the middle of it, about 500 meters from the place where I should have landed. I was alive.0 votedFebruary 6, 20180My husband and I went to Germany
My husband and I were in Germany from February 6 to February 20 to take pictures of a steam locomotive. We left our home country at 7:00 a.m.. We arrived at Frankfurt airport at 14:50. It was 2 degrees Centigrade and cloudy. There was no snow. We bought snacks and some food in the supermarket. Then, we went to Berlin by express train. It took about 4 hours. The seats were wide and really comfortable. We checked in the hotel at 21:00 ( at 5:00 a.m. in Japanese time). I was very tired.
