We roleplayed Kirill's upcoming interview. It was very interesting because we both come from a software development background! Due to Kirill's firewall I sent him our session transcript afterwards through email. Hope you do well. Thx Kirill.

You are doing well, you are strong with an intermediate level with one foot in advanced. What you have learned you have learned very well. You speak well but with limits and you need to practice speaking more. Practice is key. It's half of learning. Pronouncing is good, you need more words, more vocabulary. You hesitate when you speak because you don't have the vocabulary. The grammar is good but there is more. Not a lot more, only a little more. Language is part of culture... what are you planning to do about that? I'm waiting for you to tell me jokes in English. Continue the good progress!

    Fools and Roads As I've told earlier, I've decided to write about all I see, and reviewing photos on my iphone gives me additional topics to say about. I get photo of something because this "something" inspired me, i had some emotions (positive/negative), and that's why i've took photo) And this photo is linked only with negative emotion - here I lost my wheel, riding on a car across this chuck-hole. Me, like most of russians, like car racing - not sport, but just fast riding on public roads - overdrafting speed limit twice or more. It's prohibited, but nobody follows speed restrictions, and police mostly doesn't care about this. Our police is one more interesting topic. And in region where I live, Moscow region, roads are really good (comparing to other distincts, where it's only possible to ride fast only on jeeps and tractors). And i'was driving, road is normal, with patches, but we accept such quality of roads. And at the last moment I saw hole in the asphalt, and i had no time to neither stop, nor come round, and my right wheel falled to it. And falled totally - car sat on the frame, and it was very unpleasantly to stop to 0 from 120kmph in one moment. And there was a story to eject a car from there, suspension leverages were broken, light alloy wheels were cracked, tyres were killed, and it took much time to recover a car. And after a several weeks i went again this route and saw our road services finally resolved this problem - installed self-made stick there and marked with red tape! We have a proverb "Russia has two problems - fools and roads". And what roads do you have? Are roads problem of your country?

    Ostankinskaya TV-tower story Hi, All! Decided to write here about all I see. Yesterday I went (by work questions) to Ostankino, region of Moscow, when Ostankinskaya TV-tower located. This is one of highest free-standing buildings in the world, and it inspires me - it's beautiful. I can't resist myself to avoid taking its photos! It's about 500m of height, it's unbelievable, that this giant is made mostly of concrete and it is installed on a only 3m-hight concrete base! It is a greatest engineering solution! Concrete by itself is fragile and not flexible, but there was discovered clever option to make it acceptable for such usage - concrete is preloaded by tens of steel wire ropes inside the tower. Ten years ago (+\-) inside a tube where these ropes and telecommunication cables were located there was a fire, and a lot of equipment was broken, and these ropes were fused. And there was a real chance for it to fall down! But concrete, that lost preload, outstayed, and in several years ropes were restored, and the tower is on its place! If you plan to visit moscow, you can visit observation bulb (thickest bulb in the middle of it), if the weather will be fine, you'll see great picture of Moscow from ~350m height. I have never been there, but going to do that. Who is goint to visit that place with me?

    Problems with my English Hi all! My name is Kirill, i'm living in Russia, and Russian is my native language. Unfortunately, studying at school i didn't pay any attention to English (it's a mandatory discipline in school). And now I work in well-known American company, but my knowledge is based mostly on English technical documentation reading. Who can help me to enlarge my vocabulary and give me oral practice?
