Hello. Merry Christmas to everyone! On the eve of this long-awaited magical holiday, we decided to hear the voices of the past and let the festive atmosphere of other eras into the world of modernity. We are collecting poems from different poets who have written in different languages ​​about Christmas. As a result, a large audiobook will be collected, which will be, on one side, a retrospective and on the other side, an incredible source of a magical atmosphere charged with a centuries-old history of the holiday. We will be glad to receive any support for the project. Donations can be sent through PayPal to the email address lomonosov_2009@mail.ru

Hi! My Name is Michael, I’m sixteen years old and I live in Dublin. I am in in 10th grade at O’Connell Secondary School, I really like it there! I’ve got a lot of friends and the teachers are really nice, I really like my history teacher, she is so funny!

However, there are many rules in my school!
First, we mustn’t listen to music in class but we can listen to music in the playground. Then, we mustn’t run in the corridors, but we must wear a uniform. I hate the school uniform; I would rather wear my own clothes!

Another rule that I don’t like: we must do our homework! It’s something difficult for me because my parents are not here to help me when I come back home.

Finally, we must be polite with the teachers and the pupils, which I think is absolutely normal, this shouldn’t be a rule actually! But we have to be careful because if we break the school rules, we have detention!
