Not a lot about Ukraine

Hello again! Yesterday I said to you hello for the last time, but then I counted my blogs and it was less than 12. So I need to write something ano more time. I promise, for now its hello the last time... :)
I like my native country very much. Even though it's nor perfect, the best time I had in my life was while living there. What can I tell people about my country?
The first thing is that Ukrainians are really friendly and generuos people. They like to have guesta at their houses. If you want to go to your friend's house, you shouldn't give a call before that. You can come in without saying in advance and it will be normal. Usually there are a lot of different dishes when Ukrainians have guests. And they are unbelievably delicious! There is a special kind of soup called borshch. It's my favourite soup maybe because it's native or because it's really good :)
No I want to change the topic a little bit. The averege age of getting married in Ukraine is 19-23 for girls and 24-29 for guys. Right now there is a tendency that young people want to get their education and job before getting married, especially in big cities. In the villages young people still are getting married early. I think it's too early: 18-22 ( girls), 22-25(guys). At that age they are still dependent on their parents and are not mature enough to have children. On the other hand, how can we judge them? Everybody has a right to define the life highlights. When I was leaving the Ukraine, in the airport my father was really sad. I asked him 'why', he told me that he wanted to have the grandchildren. I smiled. Hm! I decided to study more. This decision made my father sad, but I promiced him he will get grandchildren pretty soon :)
Ok! I need to go. Yun is waiting for me. Even though I did not right anything special in my blog, I did not feel sorry about that. Why? I have no good thoughts in my head right now. Why? Because of the final? Probably... Anyway, thanks a lot for raeding that.

AHA!

Hello again! Hello one more time! And... Hello the last time here!
We are almost done. The holidays are coming, so pretty soon we can sleep as much as possible and do whatever we want.
It's unbelievable for me that the time is not going but running too fast. Remember the first day I came to the University on the 5th of September and now our EAP2 is finished.Almost! Not yet! ...We have to do well at finals but I'm sure we'll be ok, right?
I am thinking right now that there were a lot of happy moments while studying together as one big group. We had a great time and I really want to thank everybody for that. We'll have even better time on the next level, won't we? AHA!
I wish you, guys, to have a great holidays and all the best!
Believe in yourself and we'll be OK!
BYE!!! And see you tomorrow :)

My Brother



Hello here almost the last time:)! Almost as I should do one more entry so it's going to be 'hello' again... :)


I thougt today about the trees. There is a lot of snow on them. Aren't they cold? I think they are, but they should stay beside the road. They cannot move, so the only choice they have - just stay there and be cold. Poor trees...


Ye. Then I suddenly thougt about my brother. I don't know why? Because I missed him or... because I talked to him today. Anyway, my brother's name is Andriy, and he is one year younger than me. However, to tell the truth, he is much more smarter than me. Of course, because he is a boy, and I'm a girl :) He is very serious guy. We are different, even though everybody says we look similar.


We used to fight a lot in our childhood. The first time I was stronger than him, so I always was a winner. I enjoyed our fighting on that time. Later on, Andriy became stronger, and it wasn't really funny to fight with him then. So I told him that the gentlmen are not allowed to fight with ladies. Did it help? For sure, my brother was a real gentlman.


If anybody asks me if I would prefer to have sister instead of brother I would say"No, no, no. Never ever." In the future, I really want to have a son and a daughter. Ye, later, some day...
