II. About Myself

My full name is Vladislav Gulak. I'm fifteen, I was born 30 of January 1995 in Poltava.

My family is a family of three: my father, my mother, and I. Our family lives in Poltava. We have a nice three-roomed flat. Our family is friendly. I like my family very much. We have two beautiful dogs.

My hobby is skiing and playing different computer games.

I'm tall and slender. I have dark hair, green-curry eyes. And what about clothes I like to wear jeans and T-shirts.

I'm not very lazy, and I try to be a success in school. Certainly I and my friends talk a lot about our life.

I'm a sociable. One of the my friends is Denis. He is fifteen. Denis likes to listen to music, watch new films, discuss different topics and do many other interesting things. We often go to the cinema, cafes, pizzas and concerts. Denis is a good friend. My friend knows a lot of interesting facts about music, famous people and history. I am happy to have such good friend as Denis.

Like many other children when I was a child I went to a kindergarden. At the age of six I went to school. Our school is a four-storeyed building in the center of Poltava. The school-building is not very large, but there are many classrooms and specialized rooms for studying different subjects. We study Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Ukrainian, English, History, Geography, Biology, Literature and Jurisprudence. Chemistry and Physics are taught in well equipped science rooms. There are schemes and tables on the walls. There is good equipment for laboratory experiments in the labs. Record-players are widely used at our lessons. There is the Assembly Hall on the first floor of our school. We usually gather there to mark holidays. On the ground floor there is a gym. There dining-room is on the ground floor too. On the yard there is a workshop. There we are taught to use some tools and machines.

I want to be a business man - a person engaged in active business activities - private production, trade, provision of services.

Sometimes I like to stay home alone, especially when I need some relaxation. Then I listen music, watch television, doing homework or play computer games.
