The things I like less in my University life

                    

Every person imagines that university life is a kind of new step in life and it sure will be better than the previous one. Entering the university is one of that steps. I have already done it and now I am a first-year student. Yes, there are many things I like about my studying at the university. Though, there are also some negative moments. I can't say that there a lot of them as I have just started to study here amd may be I don't knoe all peculiarities of university life, but I already have something I don't like.
When I was a school girl I studied hard and had so little time to relax and do what I wanted to do. I thought that it was impossible to pay more attention to learning and it was impossible to have less time thaan I have those times. Now I can surely say that it is possible to have NO FREE TIME AT ALL. And that is the first thing I don't like about my university life. It's awful. I have forgotten how some of my friends look like, what pleasure cinemas' attending makes, what tasty food is in Mc. Donalds', what fresh air is outside in the evening. Oh no, the fresh air I remember. However, I breath it only when I return from my lessons in the evening. And that's all. I want this free time, but I don't have it becase of the second thing I like less in my university life. 
This thing is A LOT OF home tasks! I am not a robot, really. Sometimes I want to stop doing anything and start shouting, because I am already tired but I still have so much work to do. From time to time I think that home task is a magic thing which never ends. I HATE doing a lot of tasks. My friends go for a walk, spend time with enjoyment but only I stay at home all the time and do my homework. It's unfair.
And the last thing I don't like is that there is not many boys in my faculty =( Why is it so? It's easier for me to communicate with boys than girls. However, there are only several boys who study with me. Mpreoverm some girls are so strange that I can't even imagine how to speak with them. 
So, before entering the university, think twice because people lie. Studying at the university is not a s bright as they describe it. There are some negative points. However, I should say that some things are not very serious (like about boys) and it is possible to live with them. On the other hand, some of them can't be ignored and they destroy my psyco =(.

Script "The Georgian family"

http://titanpad.com/9SjFCeFbUE

In picturesque Georgia there lives a family. As you can guess, all of them have a hot temper, so relations in that family are not simple. Father likes to watch football, grandmother is a fan of the Brazilian soap-operas and young boy always invents something strange. So, here is an ordinary day of the Georgian family.
Father: Score a goal! Come on!...Yeah, we did it! 1:0, our boys are going to win.
Grannie: Oh, watching your stupid football again! Could you be quieter, please (irony). My head aches because of your shouts!
Father:Do not bother me! or do not you see that we scored 1:0?
Grannie: I don't care about THAT score. I want to watch my favourite "Silvia's cry" and that awesome Pablo!
Boy: Wah, damned, you are shouting again! How long will it last? (passing them)
Grannie: The soup is already cooked. Are you going to eat?
Father: Of course, ashh! (irony). I'm soo hungry, I want to eat my favourite...ram
Grannie: The ram will be served later. (Grannie brings a bowl of soup)
Grannie: How is the soup? Tasty? Isn't it too hot? Isn't too salty?
Father: Ah, Did you put here some hot spices? My mouth is burning!
Grannie: (with sympathetic face) Do you feel unwell, my dear?
Father: I guess something is going wrong...in my stomach. WHAT DID YOU PUT IN HERE?
Grannie: Actually, not really spices, but a rat poison. (slightly smiling)
Father: WHAT?? Grannie, are you back to it again?(coughing)
Grannie: Ha, everytime the same words! Maybe you already invent something different. And stop dramatazing! Nothing dreadful is going to happen to you.
Boy: ( from the other room) Ahah, what an attagirl my grannie is! Dad, don't take it too seriously. (smiling)
Grannie: (takes the remote control) Give me this! At last! (switching the channel, watching "Silvia's cry") No, no, noooo! what are you doing? She is your daughter!! Poor girl! Padre, tell her!! How long will it last?
A bell rings. Father creeps to the door, opens it and notices a girl who is wearing nothing but Nike running shoes and a sign around her neck.
Father: (becoming gray-haired for a moment) AH! Who are you? We did not call you!
Girl: Good afternoon, I am a representative of the "Thick and thin" company. (Boy appears at the moment when a girl turns her sign which reads "If you catch me, I'll be yours)
Boy is running out of the door like a shot and screams "Oh, Saint shish kebab, she has come to me". Father closes the door and goes to the lavatory. Boy enters the room and notices his Father on the bed.
Boy: Oh, father, look at me! I have lost 5 kilos! It's because of that girl. Now I have another goal. I'd like to become keen on semantics. Can you help me, my wise lion?
Father: What do you want me to explain you?
Boy: Father, what does word "irritation" mean?
Father: ok, my dear boy, sit down here. Dad will explain you....(looks at the grannie watching Brazilian movie and then, throws down the remote control) - That is, my boy, irritation!
Grannie: What happened? God Almighty! What on earth is going on? Again this naughty sonny-in-law!! How bored I am with you!
Boy: Assssa. Now I understand. And what is aggravation, father?
(Father comes to the grannie)
Father: Keep silence, woman! Ashot is going to make things better. I just have to hit the TV-set and it will work.
Grannie: Ahhhhhh!!! What have you done, idiot ??? Let one twist your arms!! Where are my Pablo and Silvia, Padre, Juan, Julio? I curse that day when you married my daughter!
Father: And THAT is my boy, aggravation! Did you see that?
Grannie: My goodness! In this bedlam I completely forgot about shish kebab. (moves quickly outside)
Boy: Ok, I see. You're so intelligent, father! And what is frustration?
Father: My boy, what was your last weight? Will you check it again?
Boy: Yes, for sure. But I don't see any connection between my question and your request. But I'll try. (standing on the scales). Oh, my God, I have put on weight! It's a frustration!
Father: What? My boy, just take it easy...my Mika is the most courageous and handsome man! Your "osh-kazan" is your pride. Just look at your father: I'm in a good shape! I love you in the way you are...(hugging him)
Boy: But I was trying to lose weight It was my dream!
Father: My son, you should remember that your beauty is in your roots. Our family is very proud of you. You are our gladness!...(hugging him)
Grannie: (returns with skewers). Oh, piping hot!! Grandsonny, don't get upset! Here is a piping hot shish kebab!
Boy: Ok, grannie. you seem to be right!
Father: Take this shish-kebab, my Mika! This is the best solution in this way.
Boy: Ok, let's eat!!!

Ах, Мэри!

Окончен бал. Погасли свечи.
Ах, Мэри, вот и дом родной.
Сегодня принц произносил ей речи.
Но кто теперь увидит, скажет: "Ой!"

Достав глаза свои вставные,
Их спрятала она в комод.
Осталось зубки вытащить и ныне
Не узнает ее народ.

Ведь изменилась. Стала чуть другая.
Парик сняла и стала лысой.
Еще нога же костяная.
И уши уж давно не слышат.

Секрет окрылся нам сейчас.
Не должен знать его никто.
Красива Мэри только час:
Когда на бал идет. И всё!

Three little witches

It was an autumn night
The gloss of stars was rather bright
This night three witches solemnly came out.
Beautiful costumes. Oh, pretty children!...Why do they shout?

The time to walk away and play
The time to make the people pray
Three charming ladies holding a broomstick
Fly to the moon to give a scary kick.

Long skirts, a crazy hair-do. They are so nice!
I love, love, love the witches in disguise
Their dark and crazy, sweety thoughts...
They're real ladies, who love forget-me-nots.

Halloween is just the only happy day
When pretty ladies gain the horror fame
"So",- say the witches, - "When shall we meet again:
In thunder, lightning or in rain?"

What a strange night!

Once upon a time there lived a little girl. She was a princess for her grandparents and they loved her a lot. The family lived in a small house which was situated in the ordinary village.
So, the girl's room was upstairs. She liked it a lot, because there was a big window and before sleep she used to look at the night sky and count the brightest stars.
It was autumn. Everyone was preparing for such a horrible, but at the same time funny holiday. It was Halloween.  The girl used to decorate her house in a special way. But her grandparents were against decorating it with pumpkins. They seemed awful to them and very scaring. Only in the girl's room the pumpkin was placed. It was a kind of fun for the girl, to create a "Jumping-Pumpkin", as she called it. Co, she placed a candle in the pumpkin. It was great. The girl couldn't keep the joy of her creation.
The night before Halloween the girl looked at the stars and fall asleep, as usual. The "Jumping-Pumpkin" was standing on the table. But in the morning the trouble happened. There had been the girl's favorite ring on the table. But in the morning there was nothing. It has disappeared. The girl decided that the Pumpkin had stolen it.
So, in the evening of Halloween she wanted to look at the Pumpkin. She knew, it would be the result. She would expose it!
But, at the same time, the girl was scared a lot. It seemed fantastic that a pumpkin could become alive and steel her ring. But there were no any other ideas and it was Halloween, the night when everything seemed real.
In the evening she lighted the candle, put it in the pumpkin, put the other ring on the table near the pumpkin and went out of the room, instead of going to bed. But she didn't close the door. She was staying in front of the room, in the absolute gloom of the Halloween night. Everything was scaring. Every sound, every rustle, every blow of the wind were making her tremble. But she continued to look at the Pumpkin. She believed that she had to wait a little and she would expose this insidious robber.
And suddenly the raven flew in the room, caught the ring and flew away. The girl was shocked. She couldn't spell a word. "Oh, my God!", - she thought. - "The raven was my Halloween strange guest who had stolen my ring!"
And that moment the Pumpkin smiled to the girl and the candle blew out. "What a strange night!" - the girl said and went to bed.

Contemporary art


Contemporary art is the whole set of the artistic practice which emerged in the second half of the 20th century. Contemporary art can sometimes seem at odds with a public that does not feel that art and its institutions share its values. In Britain in the 1990s contemporary art became a part of popular culture, with artists becoming stars, but this did not lead to a hoped-for "cultural utopia".
There are a lot of kinds of art. The most interesting for me were the following.
  1. NanoArt – it’s a new kind of art which is connected with the creation of sculptures of micro- and nano sizes. It is also possible to work with the black-and-white photos in the graphics editor, such as Photo-shop or others. NanoArt is a 3D- art which renders the atmosphere of the picture by means of color and scope.

  1. Twisting is a technique of making sculptures using balloons. The process begins with the creating outlines on the paper, then the artist makes a former from the light materials. Then the outlines should be braided with the balloons and we can see the masterpiece.


  1. Kinetic art is a tendency of the contemporary art which is connected with the wide usage of movable constructions and other elements of movement. In many cases the movement is made by the changes of the lighting. The movement can be included in different ways: by fluctuations of the air quality, electromagnetic force or simply using the engine. Movement of the object can be supplemented by different effects such as illumination, sound, light show or a motion picture.

  1. Animation is a kind of animated cartoons. Animation has a large audience and recognition throughout the world. It is used in television series, films, video, video games, commercials, and internet-based releases, and represents most, if not all, genres of fiction. It is characterized by the heightened attention to the details: every trifle can have a great sense for the spectators. 

  1. Nail art represents the skill of nail-painting. Firstly this kind of art was used by Afro-Americans but soon it interested all other women. Modern nail-art consists of several kinds and tendencies which are characterized by different kinds of putting the picture on the nails.

  1. Piercing is a kind of art which means an art of puncturing your body in attempt to decorate it. There are a lot of variants of the possible piercing such as piercing of the nose, of lips, of ears, of the tongue, of the novel and even piercing of coccyx and brain-piercing.

  1. Body art is another art to decorate your body. In a wide sense I consists of make up, tattoo, mandy (bio-tattoo with the usage of henna) and bodypainting itself. It’s not enough to make beautiful pictures on the body. The artist should make an entire image.

  1. Visual poetry is a genre of the contemporary art which is situated on the joint of literature and traditional modern art (painting and graphics).

  1. Installation is the art of individuality. It is one of the tendencies of the contemporary art which traces its roots to the surrealism. Installation shows multiple meaning of the things around us, shows their hidden senses and traits.

  1. Computer design is an area of design itself where computer is used as the tool for industrial design and projection.

  1. Stamp art is the name of one of the areas of the subject collecting of postmarks and signs of the post payment which are devoted to the art, masterpieces of the world's culture, paintings, sculptures and other artworks. 

  1. Modern dance. This conception unites many styles and trends of dancing. The dominant point there is the spirit of freedom and there are no taboos and bans.

  1. Photography is a really great component of the contemporary art. It gives an opportunity to imprint many aspects of life which are invisible for people. Photography can also refract the reality and make us take it and see in the absolutely new way.

  1. Stuckism is an international art movement. Although painting is the dominant artistic form of Stuckism, artists using other media such as photography, sculpture, film and collage have also joined, and share the Stuckist opposition to conceptualism and ego-art.

  1. Fire Art is a term used to describe a piece of art that uses active flames as an essential part of the piece. It has a direct impact on its surrounding by consuming materials and by throwing off heat and light. It is an active medium, constantly moving and appearing to be alive. There is an inherent perceived danger to fire.

But what I liked most among numerous kinds of contemporary art is pin-up. It was born in 30th but now it is modernized and shows us real masterpieces. Pin-up arose due to the advertisement of Coca-Cola and Lucky Strike. This kind of art represents nice photos of the girls who are dressed in beautiful dresses, charming blouses and skirts, their make-up is perfect and they are the embodiment of a good taste, beauty and youth.
I believe that pine-up girls, who are the models for the artists working in this trend, are those who tell the world about the new trends in fashion. These photos are made in retro-style but models are dressed fashionably and they are still like the etalons of the contemporary beauty.
