My homework
I had to translate the sentenсes from Russian into English. Here is what I got. :)
1) Yesterday Rita wrote a to-do list that she should do in February. She told me that she would be very busy in February because she will begin a new project. We talked on the phone for some hours and had time to talk a lot. We are friends for fifteen years. We studied at the college together.
2) Last year we decided to do a renovation. Before this we have done the renovation 12 years ago and I was afraid that this time the renovation would be so difficult as the last time. However everything was good! The designer had helped us with a lot of questions and we finished the renovation exactly that time as we had planned. We thought about design for about a year, and the renovation was for about a month and half. And now I live in the flat of my dreams.
3) One of my friends always enters in extreme travels. Last year he hitchhiked in Europe for some months. When he had told me about this, I answered, that I thought this is very dangerous. But he said that it was untrue. Yesterday we met and he said that he would go to Nepal next month.
4) I don’t like the New Year Holidays and I don’t prefer to celebrate those. In my opinion, they are overemphasized. Every year people are bustling and preparing instead to have a good rest or to travel. But my husband likes a New Year a lot. When he was young his parents always make a big beautiful celebration. He said that he was associated a New Year with a family and a happiness. Last year we decided to compromise: we celebrated the New Year in the travel.
5) Lately Liza and her friends have been making a hen-party every month. They have brought this tradition 5 years ago when they met together to celebrate her housewarming and decided to meet every month. They talked, drank a vine and cooked something tasty or knit. But last time they don’t meet so often because Kathy gave birth to a daughter and Margaret enrolled in the master's degree.
6) Lately he has been thinking about life a lot. I think that an accident severely affected to him and he rethought about a lot of things. He always talks about searching of a new job and movement.

The Christmas star
At the beginning of January I bought the flower – poinsettia, people call it «The Christmas star». It is really beautiful flower, but it is very capricious. It begins to lose its leaves, if it didn’t like anything. Sometimes I don’t understand what it didn’t like in this moment. It is very difficult thing, to grow poinsettia… Do you have this flower at home?

Photo hunting on the squirrels 2
Last weekend we went on to look for squirrels. On Saturday we went to Central Park of Saint Petersburg. Our friends told us that the squirrels often run on the trees. But this time we also had no luck. On Saturday we woke up and went to Peterhof again. And we saw them! The first squirrels were very fun. But one of them was afraid us. We gave them some nuts and took some photos of them. After that we went to the second part of the park. There were a lot of Totmits. And we found out that they liked nuts too. They sat on my hand and broke the nuts by their beaks. After that they took some nuts and flow out. We looked two squirrels near the firs in front of the park. One of them sat near my hand and made afraid the Totmits, who wanted to take her nuts. She snorted funny. The squirrel took nuts from our hands. She ate some of them, and hid others under the snow. I guess that she will forget about her cache on the next day, because she hides her meal in so different places… I think that it is impossible to remember all of her caches.
It was a beautiful promenade!

Retelling of Zootopia
This note will be interesting for people, who didn't watch this cartoon. I think so :)
This story is about a banny, who wanted to become a police officer. Nobody of little mammals were policmen before. Only predators and big mammals became policmen because they were stronger.
But still Hops finished the Police Academy successfully. She was employed to Police Department of Zootopia. Chief Boho didn't think about the bunny that she might be a good police officer. He gave her the first task: she had to prescribe fines for parking. And Hops decided to make a record in a daily results.
During the day she saw a fox, who tried to buy a very big popsicle to his little foxkid. But he forgot money at home. The bunny helped him to by the popsicle.
After some hours she saw them again. Hops learned that the foxkid was older that he must be. Also she learned that they made from that big popsicle a lot of little popsicles. After that foxes selled popsicles to humsters.
Next day officer Hops catched a thief who had stolen a lot of bulbs from a shop.
But Chief Bogo didn't appreciate this act and decided to fire Hops. In this moment Mrs. Otterton came to the office and asked Chief Bogo to find a free detective who might take the case of missing her husband. Hops took this case. Bogo was furious, but he gave Hops two days for the inquiry of this case.

Mistakes
Oh, I want to tell you about some thoughts that comes to me when I learn English. When I write my little stories, I so glad to see the results of my work! Usually I read my stories several times and think that they are written well! Absolutely right! And I'm so exciting about this! I am a Supergirl! I'm an interpreter! :))))
But when I see that somebody fixed a lot of my mistakes, I understand: I know this mistake, and this, and this... And I agree with that corrections... And I ask me a question: "Why I didn't see a lot of my mistakes earlier?" I checked my work not one time. And I know why people fixes most of my mistakes. And it's a shame. :)
Did you be at the same situation in your learning process?

Photo hunting
On the last weekend my husband and me came to the Park of Petergof. We wanted to give to squirrels some nuts and to take some photos with them. The weather was quiet and snowy. We took a bread, nuts and went out from our car. In front of the park we saw some footprints of squirrels! Yes! We thought that the photo hunting would be sucсessful!
We were looking for them about three hours. But we saw only their footsteps everywere near firs.
But I don't regret about this walk. It was in the beautiful park with snowy trees. It was snowing and it created magic athmosphere around us. We took some photos of ourself, gave some bread to little yellow birds - tomtits. And I was happy to take some photo of them! Also I like red birds - bullfinches. Unfortunately we didn't met them. But I think, my photo hunting nevertheless was successful!

I'm a photographer!
One day, when I was in Tver on New Year’s holidays, my sister asked me to take some photos with her. It was on 5th January. It was snowing. The temperature was about -25˚C… But I agreed. She dressed on her coat, and didn’t take her cap, because she didn’t want to spoil her hairs. I was in Columbia’s winter trousers and warm jacket.
We came out. It was really cold. My fingers and nose were frozen; my camera didn’t like this weather too. But when we came to the park on the bank of the Volga, I understood that our photosession would be interesting. There were some children only at the beginning of the park. They rolled down the snow hills on sleds. And there was nobody at the other parts of the park. It was beautiful: a snow, a park, a silence and snow river. It might be magic if it wasn’t so cold!
Next place that we wanted to visit with cam was a New Year tree on the Afanasy Nikitin’s square. We were surprised when we saw a lot of ducks under the tree. They were lazy ducks, who didn’t want to fly to the warm countries. They was sleeping, or watching us. One man gave them some bread. They was walking on his legs and asking some else! It was very fun. But we were frozen and wanted go home.
I don’t regret that I walked on that cold day, because it was interesting little journey and we have interesting pictures!

Saint-Petersburg_1
Last Autumn I moved in Saint-Petersburg. I have been here before many times, and I love this city. But now I want to describe my present feelings.
Before this Autumn I lived in Tver. It’s not very small town, with long history, and old architecture monuments. It is similar to little Saint-Petersburg. But all the same feelings are different.
Every day on the way to my job I admire rivers and buildings and beautiful old streets. I like the big area of this city. There are many parks, squares and wide streets. There is so much air above Neva… In the evenings all of bridges of Saint-Petersburg are illuminated. It is interesting combination of old architecture and modern light elements. Every time, when I drive on the Palace Bridge, I remember about summer event of Saint-Petersburg «The singing bridge». It was every night during this summer. The bridge was opened to the classical music.
It is young city compared with Moscow or London for example. But atmosphere of Saint-Petersburg so vintage and magic, that you may thing that it is the same ancient as the oldest cities of Europe.
May be I will not look around me a few years later. But now, I think that I’ll admire this city every day during long days of my life.

Sun eclipse
I have been watching a sun eclipse this day. It was amazing! I took two СВ and looked through them. The picture was very sharp. The sun hidden behind the moon for a half. It is very rare thing, and it is great that I saw it. I saw an eclipse some years ago, but it was not so big.
