My school days and his school days seem ........................well.................remar kably the same, hahaha, in general ways.

    Come in, it is cold outside, get warm, have tea or coffee, and toast, Rest and tell me about you. I'll help you and you can help me. Friends far away and close at the same time. My door will open to you. "When happiness arrives at the door, always give happiness a comfortable chair." I have made the original sentence more clear for translation, The words are from the 1999 movie "A Christmas Carol" (based on the novel of Charles Dickens 1843).

    Теперь Вы знаете как учителя в русский школах пытаются научить биографии этого великого поета русских школьников, которые не интересуются литературой. Вот видите, я Вас также заинтересовал, что и заставило Вас заГУГЛить информацию о Пушкине А.С.

    I hope, my last two posts explaned you some our traditoins and sense of humor our school teachers
