№8.

My theme, topic #2.
I forgot one story, which happened to me last weekend, so I will write about the internet site. I use "Vkontakte" for 4 years. That is a very useful resource. That was copy of a Facebook at the beginning. But some time after, Pavel Durov, the creator added there music and video. I don't know about copyrights, but you can WATCH MOVIES, SERIES and LISTEN to MUSIC there of any kind and every time of day. Also there are some programs, which allow you to download the music and videos. Guys! That is a very bad, but you really can do it in Russia with no fear to be caught. That's amazing! It gives you a chance to get culturally literate. However, it takes your time for useless chating with uninteresting people - a kind of tax for education.

#7.Best trip.

Good morning everybody!
I'm going to tell you about my best trip ever. That was in my last grade in school, my mother take me and my sister to Italy. That was a tour with visiting Firenze, Roma and Venice. I think it isn't important for you to know, what pizza I've eaten, what pictures I took and what landmarks I've seen. I just want to share with you my expressions. It was winter, but it was just about 10-15˚, so it was a little cold. We walked the streets and we were seeing the anxiety, we were feeling the anxiety, we also felt the culture, culture everywhere. I thought I got in the 15th century, when Leonardo and Michelangelo lived and created, when all the city-dwellers were educated, intelligent and humanistic. When you see such an architecture, such paintings, you understand that Moscow is a kind of dirty. Here are no an architecture style, the streets out the Sadovoe Kol'tso are the hell, where your heart doesn't live. Well, that journey was one of the greatest. I want to repeat it.

#6. (David) Topic #3: Free Choice!

I'd like to talk about the army problem in Russia. Most young men must serve for one year. However, most of them, who must serve, don't serve. A simply not-serving is a crime, so people need to do something to avoid the law. It costs money - not big money, but it costs.
For many developed countries this situation seems to be strange - there are no problems with the conscription, sometimes there is competition on enrolling the army. All my life I was in thought that this problem is a part of a "Russian soul", and only a year ago I understood that that's just a part of the "Supply and Demand" theme. In most European armies there are a lot of benefits of serving - free education', an experiencing of management. In Russia that's very dangerous and useless year. That's why people in Russia don't want to go to the army.

№5. What's the most important for you in people's character? Which trades of character a person should have that you'll like him or her?

I met many people and with most of them I had a kind of conversation. There were some people who I liked and that I disliked. Analyzing my experience and the results of some parts of my life, i have mentioned some important features for me. 
The most important feature is the ability to imagine. I haven't noticed any interesting for me people who can't share with me something they imagine right now. It's important for me to know how the person is thinking, the way of dreaming. I don't like the people, who are concerned only about their life, their daily problems - they almost all are very boring.
And another one - is the sense of humor. It should be special - not dumb and not nonexistent - it should be wild and easy provoked.
In people I don't like double-dealing and egoism - when people are ready to betray you for a small reason.
