New perk for the Japanese workers!

Был только двенадцатый час в начале. Тишина громадных комнат, нарушаемая только изредка пением, доносившимся из нижнего этажа, нагоняла зевоту. Бронза, альбомы и картины на стенах, изображавшие море с корабликами, луг с коровками и рейнские виды, были до такой степени не новы, что взгляд только скользил по ним и не замечал их. Праздничное настроение стало уже прискучать. Анна Акимовна по-прежнему чувствовала себя красивою, доброю и необыкновенною, но уже ей казалось, что это никому не нужно; казалось ей, что и это дорогое платье она надела неизвестно для кого и для чего. И ее уже, как это бывало во все праздники, стали томить одиночество и неотвязная мысль, что ее красота, здоровье, богатство – один лишь обман, так как она лишняя на этом свете, никому она не нужна, никто ее не любит. Она прошлась по всем комнатам, напевая и поглядывая в окна. Остановившись в зале, она не могла удержаться, чтобы не заговорить с Мишенькой.

Adjectives that end with "-y"

“A family member that I'd really love to work with in the future is my cousin John, who is a few years older than me, and now has his own successful marketing company. I’m now in my final year of studying media marketing, and John has always been there for me, anytime I needed some advice or help with my studies. I guess you could say he has been like a mentor to me.




I actually had the pleasure of working with him during my summer holidays last year, which was a really amazing experience, and I got a lot of great hands-on working experience . 




As I'm studying media marketing, John's marketing company would be a perfect fit for me to put my years of study to use. I’m especially interested in social media marketing, and would love the opportunity to specialise in this niche market. I have also discussed this with my cousin, and he is also very interested in breaking into this market in the future.




If this could happen in the future I really would be over the moon with happiness, and it would be like a dream come true. I think it would be an amazing opportunity, as well as a challenge that I would relish. I think I could learn so much from my cousin, as well as working hard to prove myself. I also think having him take me under his wing would be a great start to my working life.
