Gurtang's notebook entry: Jul 17, 2010 It was a long break in my writing here. My absence was explained by an obligation to make a trip far away from my home-town for a week. I decided to make this note in my diary without being sure what to say. Having visited a big city I had got an excellent opportunity to practice spoken English with people from Europe. It became easier than I had expected. It has been found, that I have an any intimidating in phrases-building. I can fellow essential grammar, but there are many culture-traditional differences. Perhaps it's time to try the Skype like a training in spoken English.

Gurtang's notebook entry: Jul 08, 2010 It's said that the close you to a target, the more commotion you feel. It's not about me. Resistance is the most important moment in any deal, whatever you do. However, in our life are many things that can't be an important, that's why a man should keep own mind opened, that's necessary to prevent from disturbing in an important (sometimes extraordinary) situation. It's silly to say that a brave man is a man who doesn't scare anything, cause an one's braveness depends on a situation immediately. Acting like an insisted rock, that's hopelessness to fall under assault of life and circumstances. However, concentrating attention on the important things only, people forget about the mass of little deals, it's a danger moment when a man can mistake. My favorite notice from "Hagakure" by M. Sunetomo is: " Master Itei said that important thing should be though careless, but the unimportant things require an attentive!"

Gurtang's notebook entry: Jun 29, 2010 In fact, that's the third day of my post-graduate life. I have the four week for resting, when I will have to decide my future. There are only two ways: 1 - go to continue graduation; 2 - go to work I will try the both. The second fact is an reality that I will be enlisted to army in any case.:) My friends said that it looked desperately. I disagree. Today is the third day of my vocation, but I bored to my craft. Yes, I have much time for training and to learn the foreign language, but I accustomed to feel my necessity. Only now I/m beginning to understand that the phrase "There is nothing so labor like to do nothing" is proper at all. I need to be engaged, and I will.

Gurtang's notebook entry: Jun 25, 2010 Today was an especial day, perhaps the most memorable day. I graduated my college, and the college's leaders said me that I would get a red diploma tomorrow. That's not thing made me so impressed. This day I realized that it's a time to say a world of farewell to my friends (relatives). Our roads are going in the different directions, that's what I call the most important point in every period of a life. The most difficult for me to say "farewell" to the definitely friends. Having our feels very warm, we have to go ahead and unfortunately we will go with the different roads. I hope we will met again somewhere in a future.

Gurtang's notebook entry: Jun 18, 2010 Having the all exams passed, it can't help making me some satisfied. Now the sky is covered by the clouds, but sun shines so bright. I hope a rain will nor start in next two-three hours. I'm going to run my usually distance, and I wouldn't want to be caught by a rain. Someone would say that long-distance running was a way to spend a time meaningless. I like running, and that's almost not ,matter what is a weather. I ran even in winter, when it was a -30. Now it's +17 and I think that's a good difference. Running my way I usually listen the audiobooks, it makes the way more interesting. Sometimes that's unnoticeable that the distance end. The different people have the different habits, I'm satisfied by my own. In any case, whatever been said, I think sport is much better then passive life-style.

Gurtang's notebook entry: Jun 17, 2010 Today I gave my blood to the blood-keeping station. I do that every month since January 2009. Despite an advertise requesting to give the blood, in small cities like my hometown that can be a problem. There are many reasons, but most influences are next: blood-keeping station can't work for all times, and you have to reserve a day for blood-giving at once. It can be a very long time before giving-day come. Many people give the blood trying to take a part in the common obligation to save someone's lives. The bad investing in doesn't help to process. I mean, that doesn't matter for me how much money I will get giving my blood. It's more important to prevent people dying because of not only diseases but also disasters. However without cash, blood-keeping point can't afford to take a blood, that's a law. Sometimes it brings me a light sense of satisfied realizing my little help will be able to save someone else. The things like an international blood-keeping association lets me understand that in every part of world still be a people willing to help.

Gurtang's notebook entry: Jun 16, 2010 Sometimes the simplest things are enough to recover one's mood. For me that is a weather. Many people here complain that our weather is very changeable, and that's true. I like our weather because it lets me to fell the different kinds of a nature's condition. Sometimes that's rain which usually ends by a mist, but very soon the clouds can go out and we can see the sun shining to us. Today is a day of a changeable weather immediately. We had a gossip landscapes morning, a middle-soft moon and now it's a sunny evening. I like seeing the sun flashing from the sky to the fields, meadows. I definitely have an excellent opportunity to train this evening. Sometimes people should take a look at the simplest things that are around. Don't forget that world around us has a pert from us ;)

Gurtang's notebook entry: Jun 15, 2010 Today I received a refuse from the military University. I'm not alone with such problem. Many, many guys were refused to take in for an officer-course. Russian military reform will destroy the remains of our army.200 men will be taken in the military Universities only, that's nothing for a huge country like Russia. Unfortunately, I did all my best. That's mean I have to find a suitable place among the civilians. Perhaps I should try to become a introducer. That sounds pretty good! In one wisdom book is said that one's temper is always forged in a flame of his destiny. We can evaluate one according to the obstacles he endured!

Gurtang's notebook entry: Jun 14, 2010 This summer promises to be a very "hot" because of trying to find a suitable place to continue education. In the end of June I had to pass for 9 exams at all. Now is 14 of June and I still have 4 exams. In fact, that's not a problem, perhaps this summer will become like a "forge" for my term. The more obstacles we met, the much stronger we become. I think that's true. One wisdom man said that a good man could be recognized by the handicaps he had and went through. Unfortunately in this year I understood the good marks weren't a guarantee to get your goals. I'm not alone with such experience. In any case, time will show the all plot's turns what can be ahead. I'd like to wish a luck to everyone who has the same "hot" summer. It doesn't matter where are they from.
