별짓

어제 사서 감추어가지고 온 귀걸이를 아침에 내밀었다
아이 뭘
쫑알대며 받아서 걸어보는 너의 귀가 조그만 나비처럼 예뻤다

점심때 함께 식사하고 나오며 네 신발을 가지런히 돌려주었다
아이 뭘
신을 신는 너의 두 발이 꼭 포유동물의 눈 못 뜬 새끼들처럼 귀여웠다

오후에 가게에서 소프트아이스크림을 사들고 뛰어와 너에게 주었다
아이 뭘
아이스크림을 베어 무는 너의 입술이 하늘붕어처럼 사랑스러웠다

아이 뭘...
내가 별짓을 다한다.

Dear Russian language learners!

If you travel to big cities in Russia - Moscow, Saint Petersburg or my native hometown Ekaterinburg (by the way it's absolutely beautiful and clean) you will need to buy a ticket (or a token) to use it. When buying a metro ticket you will absolutely need to use Russian language. 
Piece of advice: check online what type of tickets exist at the moment, plan which one is best for you and go exploring! 

Ваш преподаватель и поклонница поездок на метро,

La banlieue est trop souvent associée à la violence et à la drogue... Elle a pourtant bien d'autres visages : c'est la terre d'accueil des peintres du XIXème siècle, le terrain de jeu des amateurs de bière et le lieu de prédilection des randonneurs !

So, what exactly is a Mistake Book? It’s a notebook where you log your language mistakes using a structured approach. Each page is divided into three columns:
•	Column 1: The Mistake – Write down the mistake exactly as you made it, whether it’s in speaking, writing, or grammar.
•	Column 2: The Correction – This is where you write the correct version of the sentence or phrase.
•	Column 3: The Explanation – Briefly explain why it’s a mistake. Keep it concise—just enough to remind you of the rule or reason behind the correction.
For example, if you wrote “I have went to the store” instead of “I have gone to the store,” the explanation might be: "Use the past participle ‘gone’ instead of ‘went’.’"
