I'm fond of reading. Literature helps to form character and the world outlook. I have a lot of books at home. Ivan Sergeyevich Turgenev is my favourite writer. He is a famous Russian writer. His prose is very poetic. His style is perfect. His dialogues are interesting. He created a number of national characters in his books. Turgenev's descriptions of nature are delightful.

My brother invited me to his birthday party in Britain. I was very happy when I found out about it! The next day, I went to his place and we went to his house. I gave him a new picture, which I painted myself and I tried very hard. He was so happy that he immediately hung it on the wall. When we decided to go out one friend told a joke:
— Dear, what do you give on March 8?
- Oh, I don't even know...
- Then I'll give you another year to think about it.
We all laughed at once, it was a lot of fun outside!
