ABOUT MYSELF

Let me introduce myself. My name is Igor. I’m sixteen years old. I’m at 10-th grade. I’m tall, slender, dark-haired boy with blue eyes.

I live in Melitopol. I have a brother and a sister. My elder brother Sergey is twenty, he studies at the Melitopol Institute of Public And Municipal Administration of the “Classic Private University”, and he will be a lawyer. My younger sister Olga is ten, she studies at school. By the way, we have one more member of our family, cat Ryzhik. We love him very much.

My Mother is forty-two, she is a teacher. My Father is forty-five, he is a computer programmer.

My grandparents are already retired. My Grandmother likes gardening, and my Grandfather likes fishing. They live in our city and visit us at weekends.

I have many friends. We spend a lot of time together. We play football, volleyball, basketball. In summer we like swimming in the Sea of Azov.

Besides school, I go in for sports. I play tennis. I like it very much and sometimes I take part in different tennis competition.

Soon I will graduate from school and I have to choose a profession. However, I have many interests and hobbies, for example, sports, travelling, music, so it’s not so easy to choose an occupation. My parents want me to be a computer programmer, like my Dad.

But I’m not sure because I’m not very good in mathematics. I like computer games and communicate with people in different social nets and forums. But I don’t want computer programming to be my profession.

I’m fond of travelling so I’d like to work for a tour company. I dream to visit all countries throughout the world and to see all sightseeings and great places. I hope my dreams will come true!
