ABOUT MYSELF

Let me introduce myself. My name is Kostya; I was born on the 8 of June 1984 in Nikolaev. Now I’m a pupil of the (ninth) form at the secondary school. Among the school subjects I prefer humanities to sciences. Especially I like History. Probably it because I’m good at it. It’s interesting for me to get acquainted with ancient customs and traditions. Besides studying History gives me good opportunity to get to know more about my country many years ago and nowadays. Indeed school teachers think that I’m industrious and hardworking, though sometimes it’s hard to get through to me. The others think that seldom I can be lazy and a little bit insolent (наглый). A good friend of mine thinks that I’m just that kind of person to spend good time with, that I’m sociable and friendly. Some of my classmates try to convince me that I’m a snob but I don’t share their opinion.

I think I spend much time with my friends but much more time I spend with my family. I’m sure we are a friendly one. My parents consider me to be lazy because I sometimes I can’t help them. Nevertheless they always praise me and say I’m hardworking.

Anyway I like being me. I believe that I’m a mixed up kind of person. Surely sometimes I can be lazy but I always try to do my work properly and in time.

Indeed if I have drawbacks I seem to be trying to do well. I feel people that surround me love me the way I’m.
