Note to recorder:

Please, speak more slowly.

I think that my accent is terrible, and I get so confused speaking in English. I decided to learn the English language two months ago, and I get confused with the revision of Tenses and Voices. I am very worried about it. Anyway, I want to tell about Russian life from the beginning of my letter. How can I explain the condition of a Russian soul? I often don't understand it myself. We are so different. But I'm very strange compared to them. I love winter, but I don`t like spring. You're interested in why that is, aren't you?
How I can explain to the American girl that in our spring we get tonnes of impassable and crap? Our everyday life is not organized, but I love Russia in my heart. I really wish to travel around the world, but I want to live in my native land.
Our government has broken our education. Some children younger than me are almost completely uneducated. I think that the government wants to destroy us, but we will not surrender to them. I feel sad, which is why what I've written has been melancholy.

Oh, I didn't realize so many people had already recorded this! Oh well, I did it anyway. =P I skipped the word "impassable" because I didn't understand it. And I said "full of melancholy" at the end because I think it sounds better that way.
