345-349 The 349th day of 2019 (Electricity) I think electricity is the most significant invention. I have no idea what stage of human development we would have been if the electricity hadn't been invented. I know that there was something like a mechanical computer and we could develop without electricity. Fortunately, electricity was invented and I am happy to live at the time of smart machines. And I am a little bit sad that I can't use the technologies that will be invented in the farthest future. The 348th day of 2019 (Elevator) Elevators are really helpful equipment nowadays because buildings become more and more higher. Sometimes we need to lift something heavy and it is difficult to do even on the first some floors. On the other hand, many people are so lazy that they use elevators instead of walking in not high buildings. It doesn't make them healthy and fit at all. As for me I always walk upstairs if I don't lift something heavy even when I live on the 13th floor. The 347th day of 2019 (Money) I just realized that I haven't written about such a popular topic as money. Maybe because my money status isn't OK and try to avoid this discussion. However today it doesn't matter and I am ready to talk about everything. I understand that money is just pieces of paper and the happiness is not about money. On the other hand, money is like a ticket for more ways to live. The 346th day of 2019 (Plastic window) The next thing came to my mind was a plastic window because I am sitting next to one right now. When I was a child I didn't know about the plastic window because in the USSR we usually had just wooden windows. After USSR was broken it was popular to set plastics windows. Now all new buildings are built with plastic windows. However, some people who are rich enough set wooden windows as they are more ecological.

350 - 354 The 354th day of 2019 (hot) Ok, as we can guess the next topic is about hot. When I was a child I didn't use to care about hot, because it was comfortable for me. Now I hate hot weather because I can't be productive and I feel uncomfortable. Thanks to civilization we have conditioners in our homes and offices and cars as well. Spending a lot of time in a swimming pool or river helps feel better as well. The 353rd day of 2019 (freezing) I think now is a proper period of time to talk about freezing. Some people hate when the temperature is lower than 0 degrees Celcius and some of them feel OK. I am from the first half of the people and I always try to warm myself putting more cloth on and walking faster. Now I have a useful habit to take a cold shower every morning before having breakfast. It helps me not to catch a cold but it doesn't help me feel warm outdoor. The 352nd day of 2019 (Rain) Well, if we talked about snow why shouldn't we talk about rain? Rain sounds not so optimistic, but in my childhood, I loved walking under rain. Now it is not so happy activity because we care about our close and health. Anyway, I still don't like to take an umbrella with me. I bought only one umbrella in 2017 because I was going to travel a lot in Europe in autumn time but I didn't use it. The 351st day of 2019 (Snow) Today is the 31 of December and it is just the first day we have some snow. People say that when there is snow it feels warmer outdoor, but I am not sure if I should believe them. I can't see any connection. I like snow because it's lighter outdoor and softer to walk. Additionally, it's a possibility for some sport activities like ski, skate, and board. The 350th day of 2019 (Stage of my new flat) Now I would like to talk about the stage of my flat's decoration. I have finished decorating the whole of the walls and the floor. Some ceiling is left to set in the future and some of them are going to be set next week. Now I am making some furniture like wardrobe and a table. The bed is already bought and standing in the middle of my room.

355 - 359 The 359th day of 2019 (Coffee) Coffee became a drug for me lately. When I was a child I rarely drank coffee and I was sure that it's harmful. Nowadays scientists say that coffee is very helpful to drink if you drink it not too much. I don't know how much is "not too much", but before I drank coffee, not more than once a day. Now I have a habit to drink coffee two-three times a day. The 358th day of 2019 (Tea) I am not good at tea and I don't know what sort of tea is better. I just trust my taste and drink what I want. When I was a child I knew just black tea and when I become an adult I tried green tea first. My preference always changes. Lately, I can drink different sorts of tea a day. The 357th day of 2019 (Vegetables) Vegetables are equally to fruit helpful for human health. I try to eat vegetables at least ones a day. In my childhood, I didn't pay attention on having vegetables in my meals. that's why I always felt uncomfortable in my stomach. As soon as I realized how important to eat vegetables I forgot about problems in my stomach. The 356th day of 2019 (Fruit) Well, now it's a tendency to write about food. Fruit are fit to my writing as well because in Russia it is tradition to eat a lot of fruit at the New Year celebration. Mandarin is the most popular kind of fruit as a part of the new year present kit. Bananas and apples are really popular as well. As for me, I like pears the most. The 355th day of 2019 (Chocolate) I don't remember if I wrote a note about chocolate, but now after drinking a tea with some delicious chocolate, I decided to write a note. I love chocolate since I remember myself and now the love hasn't run out. However, now I don't eat so much chocolate at the same time. I prefer to eat a bit of chocolate with a cup of coffee without any sugar. Today I'm going to eat a lot of chocolate with some wine because today is the 31st of December and New Year is soon.

THE FINAL 365th day of 2019 ( not all notes had place in the post. They will be posted later) Finally! Finally! I am writing the last note of the year! I missed some days of writing notes but I wrote them in this big post. I hope the website italki will let me post so many signs and I will not have to broke the post into two or even three smaller posts. One year ago, when I wrote the first post of the challenge I planned to sum up this year and to make plans for the next year, but I am fed up of writing for today. I'm going to do it tomorrow. I want just to have rest, drink wine and wait for the New Year. Happy New 2020 Year!!! The 364th day of 2019 (Italian) This language I wanted to study not often. I even didn' make any attempt to do it. In 2017 I traveled to an island Sardinia and faced Italian speaking people. I realized that I wasn't ready to communicate with Italian people at all. Many of them didn't speak English and I could just day Bone jorne. The 363rd day of 2019 (Japanese) Well, it's not a serious plan to study Japanese, but I like its pronunciation. I guess it is difficult to learn Japanese and I need much motivation to be inspired learning this language. When I did karate I learned to count from 1 to 10 and some commands in Japanese. I have no significant reason to study Japanese so it will be just a dream for a while. I wish to visit sometimes Japan but it is as hard to do for me as to visit the USA. The 362nd day of 2019 (German) As I sometimes travel to Germany I would like to be able to speak German. I made some attempts to study it as well. I even started German courses but quit because of financial problems. I hope in the nearest future I will restart to study German. My dream is being able to talk with germans in their language. The 361st day of 2019 (French) There is not much to talk about the French. I can just say that I like the way this language sounds and I always wanted to be able to speak French. I made some attempts to study French but quickly gave up, because of a lack of motivation. Now when I am listening to french speech or the song in French I feel it would be good to restart learning this beautiful language. I hope I will have the spare time to study French and understand what singers sing. The 360th day of 2019 (English) Well, let stop talking about food and change the sphere of topics. I am sure I've already written notes about English but anyway let's do it again. Now I don't study at any English courses and don't read any student books. I dec........................................................

The 342nd day of 2019 (The last Sunday of the year) It is the last Sunday of the year and it is a day off. Today I have a lot of things to do relating to my new flat. I'm going to see a specialist who will measure the bathroom of my flat in order to make a ceiling with correct sizes. Then I'm going to check the parcel with bed linen if it is ok. After that, I will go home to have dinner and then go to my new flat again to set furniture. In the evening, as usual, I'm going to watch a movie in English.

The 339th, 340th and 341st days of 2019 (three in one) 339 It's Saturday morning and today I'm going to write three notes in one post because before I missed some days of writing. Usually, people in Russia have a day off on Saturday, but today is an exception because many compony prefer to work the last Saturday instead of the 31st December. The good piece of news is that today we have to work one hour less. After work, I will go to my new flat to set furniture in the wardrobe. In the evening I will watch a movie in English. 340 Let's talk about sunglasses. Many people feel uncomfortable when they have to look in front of the Sun. Moreover, it is dangerous for our eyes to get too much sunlight. Because of that people invented sunglasses to protect their eyes. As I am a driver the sunglasses are always in my car. It helps me to drive comfortably. 341 Today I would like to talk about speed camera detectors. I don't know if it is popular in the world using this gadget. As I live in Russia I can say that in my country it is quite popular. Almost every driver has this equipment that can warn you if there is a speed camera ahead. I have the detector in my car and I can be calm that if there is a speed camera I will have time to slow down.

The 338th day of 2019 It's Thursday and these are my plans for today. At work, I am going to participate in a competition of assembling and disassembling a gun. I have a chance to win because I have the experience to win and I am ready to take the first place again. After work, I will go to my new flat to fix some parts of a wardrobe. Then I will exercise my back right there. In the evening I'm going to watch a movie in English.

The 337th day of 2019 I haven't written notes for a long time because of crazy last two weeks. Now I must catch up with my challenge in writing notes every day. As italki let post just one note per day I have to write several notes in one post. At work, I have time to write notes on my smartphone, so there is no excuse. It would be useful if I find an application that will write notes listening to my voice.

The 336th day of 2019 (Weekend) It's a new weekend again and these are my plans for today: As soon as I write this note I'm going to have some oatmeal for breakfast. Then I will read some pages of the student book for about 30 minutes. After that, I will drink a tea and go to my new flat. Today I'm going to set some shelves in the wardrobe. In the evening, as usual, I will watch the TV-show in English.
