Oh, I'm very sorry, chokofingrz! I totally forgot that you had already posted your contribution to the challenge. I have already awarded you your medal of honour in the first post.
Your ideas for helping beginners are good, Cristina. I didn't think about that. Of course, you don't have to write an elaborate essay about the movie if you're just a beginner. Answering the five questions Cristina mentioned will suffice completely. Anyway, the important part is watching a Russian movie. Posting about it in this thread only serves the purpose of letting everybody know about it. By the way, I've got exciting news! My new flatmate is a fluent Russian speaker from Kyrgyzstan, so I will get to practise my Russian a lot in the future! :) I'll tell you more about her in my next log entry. 2 persons have voted this message useful | ||||||

That reminds me, I have a Kyrgyz film, called Свет-Аке (The Light Thief), but I haven't watched it yet.

Has anyone else been having problems with the forum? I tried to post yesterday, but it
wouldn't work. I've only been able to log on and post twice in the past 3 or 4 weeks. I may need to drop out if it continues. I wasn't able to complete the April challenge because of it. 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

I have constant problems but I will be around for as long as it is possible. Hopefully something will be done (is something being done about those problems?).

I will also be around as long as possible, but yes, I have also had lots of problems with the forum lately, so I
have started posting at the polydog forum too. There are several people with an interest in Russian there, and it has got a lot of nice features. My number one forum is, and will always be HTLAL, but better safe than sorry. I want to have an alternative community in case this one fails, and I intend to back up some of my things there. 1 person has voted this message useful | ||||||

I agree. I am sure QiuJP meant it in the best possible way, but these days I am sticking intensively to my mantra that you can hate the politicians of a country and still love the people. Let us be careful not to bring up topics which might have political implications. I like feeling friendly towards everyone here.

There are several ways of looking at День Победы. Currently our
government using it to strengthen its position in Crimea, but that doesn't cancel the initial meaning of this day. It's quite possible that if the history went the other way there'd be no Russians and Russian language by now. I'm not saying you should celebrate it, but congratulations aren't doing anything bad to anyone. For me 9h of May is the day when the greatest threat to the very idea of Russia was finally eliminated. It has nothing to do with our government's actions. P.S. Спасибо, QiuJP. 3 persons have voted this message useful |
