Transportation
The underground is the most popular transportation in Moscow. I think the underground is much more popular than other types of the transportation. The least popular transportation in Moscow, I think, is the tram. As concerning myself, I always prefer to use the underground. It's the fastest way to reach any point in Moscow. Many people drive to work. But I don't think it's the best way to get to work. There is the traffic in Moscow often, so it's impossible to predict how much time you will be driving.
In future, I think, the private transportation will be getting less popular. The population in Moscow is increasing and the cost of having a car is also increasing (expensive parking, costly fuel, etc). Maybe, riding a bike will be the most popular way to get to work in the future. But there's the necessity to create appropriate infrastructure.
As regarding long-distance travels, we should usually pick whether a plane or a train. What would I pick? It depends on the travelling distance. I'd prefer the train if the duration of the trip not longer than 4 hours by train. Otherwise, I'd pick the plane.

Punctuality
I think it's very important to be on time. it's a basic principle that shows your good manners. You'd agree it's pretty rude when you make someone to keep waiting and it gives a bad impression about you. Of course, when there is a good excuse for being late (traffic, for example) it's alright. It's easy for me to accept it and be waiting for some time.
But if someone could not organize himself/herself to be on time, I'd feel a little annoyed.
In my turn, I always try not to be late. A while ago I had a habit to be sometimes late, but several years ago I decided not to do it anymore and now I always come on time.
Some people wear the watch to be on time, but I don't think it works. Nowadays everyone has a smartphone, so you can always know the time. People usually are late because the couldn't organise their activity to be on time. For example, a person knows that he might be late, but leave the home too late.

Healthy life
I think that healthy life means having both physical and psychological health.
When one wants to improve the physical condition they need to go to the gym, eat healthy food, sleep well, not to drink alcohol and so on. Everyone knows what they need to do.
For example, fast food is known to be unhealthy. But most of the people eat it every week. The same is about going to the gym. Everyone knows that it's a very useful thing, but many people can't make themselves go to the gym regularly.
When we talk about psychological condition healthy life means no having stresses and being happy with the current life. One should take everything easy. If today something goes bad, it's not the end of the world. Tomorrow the situation will change.
The important thing here is having new plans and goals. When you have something to reach it's easy to dismiss unimportant things. And you can be delighted if you get closer to your goal.
Living the healthy life is not easy. One should have healthy habits in their life.
But if one really wants to do it there are no problems to obtain it.

My happy purchase
I think that my the happiest purchase that I've made recently is the season ticket to games of the basket team "CSKA".
I'm really fond of basketball. It's great when you can visit all games your favorite team. There's the wonderful atmosphere at the stadium. I really enjoy every game. Moreover, CSKA is one of the best teams in Europe. Every time I know that I will be watching the good performance.

New knowledge and English
English is the most popular language in the world. It is not the most speaking language in the world (I know it is Chinese), but the knowledge that there is English texts, videos, audios, etc is incredibly important. If you want to learn a new language the best educational resources are in English.
If you want to learn a new technology the best resources are also in English.
Even people who are the guru in some technology likely to have their lessons in English rather than in their native language. So if one wants to learn new things it's undoubtedly important to be able to understand English speech. If there is the necessity to share your knowledge you should speak English that way that people understand you and your ideas.

How I'd resolve a conflict between me and a roommate who is always very loud at night?
So, I think I would probably try to speak with him about my dissatisfaction.
Maybe he thought that he did not irritate me.
Probably it would be successful.
If it would not help, then I could write a complaint about this situation.
I think that the complaint would definitely improve this situation.
At the worst I could try to find a new room or a new roommate)
It would depend on conditions of using this room.

My flat
I am currently living in Moscow.
Now I rent a 1-room flat quite near to the city center. There is a living-room, a kitchen and a bathroom there.
I've been renting this flat from the May of this year. Previously I lived in the university dorm.
I like my current flat. It's very clean, cozy and bright.
Also, I need only 25 minutes to get my workplace from my flat. It's wonderful!
If I could I'd rent a 2-room flat. There would be more space there.
But now, because I'm living alone, I think that my current flat is the optimal choice for me.

My home town
I was born in Bishkek, USSR. But i lived there for three years and then i moved to Bryansk.
So, I consider Bryansk as my home town.
It is the town where I grew up and lived for more than 14 years.
Bryansk is a small town if it is compared to other Russian cities.
I think that the most interesting part of the town is forests.
There are many forests in Bryansk and you can enjoy them in your free time.
You can go in a forest for a picnic.
Bryansk is known in Russia as the town where is good metallurgical production.
There are many factories in the town. Many people in Bryansk work there.
I had liked Bryansk, but when I started living in Moscow, I changed my opinion.
I think that Moscow is much better for living. If you have an opportunity to live in Moscow you should do it.
