Summary for January: nothing but rest. Lots of rest and full absence of studying.
But I did received my 5/5 for my English without actual examination, so I changed my profile by moving English to the "Speaks" section. Looks nice though I'm not sure if it really should be that way, hehe. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

Well, do you know by now how long you'll be staying in the Moscow region?

It's not clear yet, hehe. I wanted to fly home on Sunday, but that plan
was rejected, so I think I can say that I'll spend this whole week here. Once I know more I'll write here :) 1 person has voted this message useful | |

I'm watching a lot of Olympics here, reading in Russian and sometimes getting to listen to music/ watch Castle (Eng+Eng). No German. Total rest before drowning in routine...

Began The Cuckoo's Calling in English. Trains are super-boring,
so I need to read a good book in order not to go insane. However if it'll be too hard for me to read English version (as it was with The Casual Vacancy), I'll switch to Russian transition... 1 person has voted this message useful | |

English:
18,4% of The Cuckoo's Calling with 90% (?) of understanding without dictionary (I used it from time to time and stopped at some point). Wrote short story with Swype and easy notepad using my smartphone. Looking it up in Microsoft Word and see lots of green underlining - no wonder that my grammar isn't good enough for the machine. As far as I can check myself, there are missed articles, broken sentences (typical mistake coming from Russian) and - so sad - wrong use of tenses (e.g. didn't realized). Phew. Big plans on making a bilingual (Eng-Rus) presentation about innovative chemical technology with no sources at the moment. German: A little of listening to the songs. A little of willing to go back to the learning the language. Waiting for German season of Полиглот to begin. Think I'm a bad team leader after all, a team need to have more constant leader than me with my changeable plans and all the stuff. Well, we'll see what will happen next. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

After a long and hard from the point of studying day I decided to forget about that presentation and watch the first lesson of 5th season of Полиглот show. Yeah, it's German season now, lads!
There are the second lesson which was showed earlier today, and I think I can take that one today too for the first one didn't really give me some new information. Stop. No, it's too late here and I should sleep. On the other hand... Well, the problem is that I do like Petrov's approach and I had waited for that season to begin way too long. So no sleep for a greedy one, hello, German! P.S. So nice to look at Любэ's singer trying to learn it ^_^ Ich singe! P.P.S. Castle and The Cuckoo's Calling on the English side. 1 person has voted this message useful | |

If you read my log for a while, you may think that I don't usually get to do what I had planned. So that's what happened yesterday - I didn't watch second lesson, no, but I figured out what to say in my presentation with a great help of a more educated person than me.
And I watched that second lesson just now. What can I say... For example, I was being sort of blind because I finally saw that "Whom?" is actually "Wen?" and not "Wem?" as I thought before. With my diction it really makes no difference, but in a written German that would've been funny, I guess. There are only the simplest constructions of the language, almost no nouns, and I'm pretty fluent when dealing with the most of these constructions, but not with every single one. I stuck when students were asked to say "He loves her, she doesn't love him". Yeah, that was no problem for these students (and most of them hadn't dealt with German the way I had) and they said "Er liebt sie, sie liebt ihm nicht" quite quickly. But I'll try to practice just as students were told to - take a couple of verbs and go hard on them. Though I think my dear university will kick these intentions out of my head, to be honest...
