7. 13.08.20157 Yulya Kutasevich, 10 grade Gymnasia # 6 Gubkin, Russia Nobody’s Perfect – Something I’d like to change Speaking about this topic, I’d like to remember one famous joke: «Nobody is perfect, so I’m nobody!! » Such a pity, but it’s only a joke. In real life I’d like to change something in myself. For eхample, my relation to studying. I really understand that in future year I must pass a lot of exams, and they are will be very difficult. Because of it, I must spend a lot of time learning my homework. Also, I’d like to change some threats of my character. I’d like to be more patience and hardworking. I think that this changes in the future. Gymnasia #6, Gubkin My Book of Dreams, Happiness, and Peace

9. 13.08.20159 Yulya Kutasevich, 10 grade Gymnasia # 6 Gubkin, Russia Write on – the world is small I’ve chosen this topic because I have one interesting story from my life and I’d like to tell it to you. During the year I communicated with a person from Moscow with the help of Internet. Once I came to Moscow with my parents to visit our friends. I decided to go for a walk in the center of this beautiful city. And in Aleksandrovski Garden I met that boy from Internet. Our meeting was so unreal! I couldn’t believe it, because before that meeting I never saw him. That’s why I can say that our world is small. Gymnasia #6, Gubkin My Book of Dreams, Happiness, and Peace
