(This is a bit philosophical, sorry)
When I was 3, my mom taught me how to hold a brush and ever since that day, the brush is still in my hands. I have attended Art school for 10 years now and I feel as if art is not something I would like to do after school, it is my life. I love drawing people, every single wrinkle and every single stretch mark. We are so alike yet so different. When I sketch a face, I always start the same, but then my pencil moves to capture the shadows of the cheekbones, the emotion in the eyes, the hairline whether it is receding or still as full of hair as a teenager's head. I feel as if what I draw becomes me as if that is what I intended to do since the day my mom gave me that brush. My artwork. I want to do art. No, it is not enough. I want to live it, not just paint. I want to be in it, be the one who tells a story through each line and every colour. No words, just pictures, shadows, splashes. I want to live, breath, drink art; not just draw.

It might sound obvious but the person that has influenced m
life the most is my dad. Why? Well, though he was not my first life companion –
mother being the first one – he taught me a lot about life. Let me tell you a
little about him. He isn’t tall nor too handsome nor rich, yet this does not
prevent him from living his life to the fullest. He is an IT freelancer, and
being one he meets great lot of different people. His knowledge and skills have
gained him a lot of regular customers. They respect him for what he does not
for his looks. This was the first and at the same time the most precious lesson
I’ve learnt. It does not matter what you look like, what matters is who you
are, what you know and what you can do. I try to live my life by that rule.
1. I am going to the station to meet my friend. Her train arrives at 6:45 pm.

5. Our tour (finishes) tommorrow, so we're planning a party.

Перевод:
1. Если блюдо, которое ты хочешь попробовать, находится далеко, не тянись к нему через весь стол: попроси сидящего поблизости человека передать его тебе. Кстати, по законам этикета ты должен ухаживать за соседкой, которая сидит справа от тебя.
2. Некрасиво протягивать руку через соседа или придвигать к себе блюдо через весь стол.
3. Воспользовавшись общим блюдом, сахарницей, солонкой, тут же поставь их на прежнее место, не оставляя надолго у своего прибора.
4. Еду с блюда нужно брать в соответствующем количестве, помня об остальных сидящих за столом. На тарелку следует класть столько, сколько можно съесть.
<span>5. Встав из-за стола, не стоит сразу же спешить уйти; если тебя действительно ждут неотложные дела, предупреди о своём скором уходе </span>
