Hello! This time my challenge is to go to the neighbors and give them something. Since quarantine is still held in our country I was ready for this challenge - face mask, social distance. My neighbor and friend Vanya lives three floors higher. He was my "victim" :) Since I already sang a song on the subway I wasn't afraid to go to a neighbor :) I took some candy, cookies, and a couple of face masks in case he needed them. I knew that he was returning home late at night so after waiting I went to him. And to be more precise - I went by elevator :) When I knocked on his door, a face full of surprise and misunderstanding appeared in front of me. When Vanya asked what happened, I gave him sweets and masks and said: "Do not be sick!" He was so surprised that he just stood still, saying nothing. When he realized that I had come with good intentions, and even with sweets, he smiled and said: “Come in. I also have something for you!”...

Hello! I want to show you a video that will help you in public speech! This video by  Nate Woodbury . Here's the video: Why do you need to watch this video? 1. This video is very beautiful As soon as you start watching videos, you like everything - shades, colors, shooting quality. You can immediately see that the video was shot by professionals. If you want a beautiful picture for your eyes, then here it is! 2. Live video Very often I see videos on the Internet where the image is shown and at the same time the person behind the frame says something. I don't like these videos. I want to see people, how they talk, what emotions they experience. If you have the same opinion as me, then this is the video you want! 3. Expert opinion In such a case as public speech, it's very important to hear the advice and recommendations of an expert. Therefore, I believe that this video is very important for viewing by those people w...

Hello! This week, I completed the following challenge: call a friend and arrange a prank for them.  Well, this time's gonna be a little different :) I will tell you my completed challenge on behalf of my friend. The same friend whom I called and made a rally! "Hello, my name is Sasha. I have a friend called Dana. And she is a very cheerful person. And yesterday she did such an amazing thing that I want to tell you about! I had lunch when she called me. I thought she called to find out when we go for a walk on the promenade. And with a smile on my face I picked up the phone. I heard her uneven breathing, then I heard her cries: "Sasha, I have very important news for you!!!!" And she began to tell me that she needed to leave for Moscow. And she will live there. And that, most likely, she will never return to Novosibirsk. At first, I was silent for a long time, trying to understand whether everything I heard was true. Then I asked ...
