__{3}__ This notebook entry is dedicated to a video I've just seen on youtube.The video shows some views of my native city, St Petersburg. It'll never occur to people, that places they visit nearly everyday can be so beautiful. Actually, the video was made by a photocamera, and this fact makes it more magnificent. Well, this message is not such a big deal comparing to my previous entries, but I can't stand watching it by myself, alone :) The link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGC_fAkApY4

__{2}__ Hm… I’ve just decided to write another entry (the second actually), but there’s the one thing that gets in the way – I can’t think a theme of the entry; not to mention problems with the English language. OK, it’s better to share my thought about the things I like, otherwise the message will look like boring. Hey! Since when do I care about someone’s opinion? (It’s a joke, I’m really interested in it). Well, at the fact that none of themes haven’t appeared yet I’m going to choose the most popular, for instance, FIFA World Cup. Let this message be dedicated to the most common kind of sport. I confess you I don’t like football at all, but the news that FIFA World Cup 2018 will be held in Russia is very pleasant. Firstly, there’ll be a lot of new stadiums and so called “villages” for foreigners who’ll come to see the event. Secondly, the construction of them will lead to a developing of infrastructure and stuff. And thirdly, the Cup will provide a good image of Russia (I hope so). I’ve seen some videos that showed football fans of the other countries which competed to be entitled to hold the World Cup. It’s a pity that their countries weren’t selected… But on the other hand I’m very happy with the decision of judges. I don’t even bother whether Russia will win the Cup (an illusory hope that Advocaat’s wildest dream will come true is getting faint while the team’s playing), I just want to participate such a great happening . By the way, Russia will spend about 10 billion dollars to organize FIFA World Cup 2018, and Qatar that’s the host of the Cup 2022 will spend 50(!) billion because of its hot weather. I've just reread the entry and I think it looks very arrogantly. I tried my best to write it, don’t be strict! =)

__{1}__ I’ve been registered on this site since the 23d of August, but I haven’t written an entry so far. My mind tells me that it’s caused by my laziness, but I’m inclined to think that the reason is a lack of inspiration. I’m writing this post because I have free time. Actually, I have a lot of homework to do, but it’s late, and I shift this duty on tomorrow. My friends are busy, and even my parents are not at home, therefore there is no one to speak with me. Well, it’s the very time to determine a theme of this entry. I’m not a master in essay writing, and I think the text will be rather boring, but I have to practise. It would be wise to write the first post of mine about me. My real name is equal to my nickname, and I’m nineteen. I live in a very beautiful city called Saint-Petersburg (Russia), which is located on the Baltic Sea. My flat is far away of the centre of the city, and it takes half an hour to get to my university by a subway. Hm… of course, I didn’t mention that I’m studying at SPbSU of Information technologies, mechanics and optics, and my major is applied informatics in economics. I’m a second-year student now. I hope my future work will be related with information functions of economics, for instance, with a networked economics (I’m not sure this name is right, never seen this before) or data bases in banking. I have no special hobbies. But I like to spent my leisure with books. It usually doesn’t matter what to read. However, my schedule is very inconvenient this term, so I haven’t got enough time to meet my friends, not to mention reading. My favourite books are “The Lord of the Ring”, Neil Gaiman’s creations, and, of course, Harry Potter series (I have a lot of arguments for someone who thinks it’s just a fairy tale for children). I don’t like Russian classic literature, and the reason is the way it was showed at school: from the theory of literature point of view. But, I think, “The Master and Margarita” and “Quietly flows the Don” are worth the time you spend on reading. If I have enough spare time I watch the TV. I prefer fun TV shows, for example, “The Simpsons” or “Futurama”. I seldom watch films, but horrors and fantasy are very attractive for me. “Saw”, “The Prestige”, “Stardust” and “Pan’s labyrinth” are the movies I like to advise for people who search for an interesting and unusual films. OK, I have to get a grip on me! I hope I express my thoughts properly.
