If I won first prize in a lottery
If I won first prize in the lottery, the first thing I would like to do is to buy a gift for my mother, something about she always wished. And then I would start to think what I can do with money. It depends on amount of it. If it’s not a large sum, I would organize a party for my friends, because it’s very important to keep a good and cheerful mood. I would also make presents for all my good friends and relatives because I love them and I’m glad when they are happy. If the sum is large enough to buy an apartment or a house, I would do it without any delay because I would need it after graduating from the university. Then I would buy everything that is necessary to develop. Then I would buy a car, a cottage. Also I would buy some less significant (important) things like books or engineering techniques, and so on. If I had all the enumerated things, I would go for a journey. I think that needs of a person grow with increasing of his possibilities, so I could imagine a lot of applications (использования) of money. But at this moment I think that my present financial position is enough for me.
A day trip.
Once I had a trip to village Konstantinovo, a motherland of great Russian poet Sergey Yesenin. It was a wonderful and really beautiful place. Konstantinovo is situated on a high picturesque bank, where a magnificent sight appears from. There were very nice cottages and streets, a lot of beaches and bushes [bu:] (кустарник). And I also liked that there were a lot of wattle (плетёных) fences. I visited a house of Sergey Yesenin. It was very interesting to look how his family lived. The manor (особняк) was a log house (бревенчатый) and situated in the centre of village. I also visited a house of Lidiya Kashina, who was the prototype of the main heroine [hәrәuin] of Yesenin's poem "Anna Snegina". There was an interesting planning of a building. There was one central room with stair and other rooms were displaced around it. In the village there is a museum exposion devoted to work of a poet.
And, of course, there was a wonderful countryside. Oka river has a very beautiful bank there. There were also hills from which I could see unbounded spaces of fields and meadows. I was admired of the Konstantinovo and I thought that if I lived there I would write poems too.
Relationships and marriages.
For a long time marriages were inviolable (нерушимый). Weddings made in churches and marriages were considered to be made on heaven. Nowadays people don’t consider marriages to be so serious and there are many divorces at present. As for me, I think that marriage is a very responsible step because you must care about your wife or husband and honor of the family. You should pay attention to one another so that people live in harmony and take a care. Marriage is a serious step in life and requires a lot of courage and responsibility from the person who makes such a decision. The majority of couples think that the desire and passion in love are enough reason to turn a new unknown page in there future.

You also need to have a good job as a source of profits to keep your family. And, of course, you must be not too young for a marriage.
To my point of view young couples who decide to marry early don’t have enough consciousness (осознание) to realize what they are doing. Only some young people can say that they are ready for a long relationship with the beloved one. I think that an optimal age to get married is 23 – 25 years old.
I hope that my future marriage will answer all my wishes and I will have an enduring happy family.
Five senses.
All people have five senses: sight, taste, smell, touch and hearing. Let’s see what possibilities we have due to (благодаря) them.
Sight is the sense that gives us much more information than other four. It helps us to orientate ourselves in space, to discern (различать) different objects, to watch what is happening around us. Sight allows us to read, to write, to work on a computer and many other things which are very important for us. Taste is a less informative sense. It allows us to enjoy taste of food or to determine whether it is tasty or fresh. Smell allows us to determine a freshness of provisions. It helps us not to poison ourselves by something bad. It also allows to enjoy pleasant smells and to determine unpleasant harmful substances like gas. Touch allows us to feel warm and cold, to discern hard and soft and so on. With its help we can feel discomfort and pain that keeps off danger. Hearing allows us to hear what is happening around us, to communicate with other people by conversation, to listen to music and so on.

Of course, this is only a small part of possibilities that our senses give us, so they are very important for us. And it’s a pity that some people are devoid of (лишены) any of them.
Recent changes in my life.
The main recent change in my life is my entering the university. It caused many other less global changes. Of course, the first of them is a change in my way of living. I had to move into a hostel. Firstly it was a bit difficult to be completely independent, but later it became easier, more pleasant and even fun. But it is a little strange for me that now I’m a guest when I arrive home, but I can’t say it’s unpleasant.
Secondly, I’ve got many new friends. I’ve never had such a broad sphere of communication although I’m not too sociable person.
Thirdly, I have acquired some duties like cooking and washing and I need to be more responsible to people. In the nearest (ближайшее) future I'm planning to earn on the side (подрабатывать). Most likely as tutor.
And, of course, the main thing, for which I entered the university, is study. It changed too: now there are no so many boring and unnecessary lessons which I didn’t like at school. I can’t say that all the subjects now are very interesting for me, but in some measure I’m interested in all of them. I like my study and all my university life at a whole. I think I’ve made right choice.
Being alone for 100 days.
If I had to be alone for 100 days I think I would be depressed. I hardly can be alone for a long time, I almost always need dear people next to me. So I would never start such a trip by myself. But if I had to do it, on being sad and crying I would have a time to think about my feelings. I would take some things with me which would help me to go through this horror.
Firstly, I would take my mp3-player. I can't live without music. I would also take a photo album with photos of my loved people.
At third, I would take with me books which I wanted to read for a long time but did not have enough time or possibility for it. I would take a paper, pens and pencils to write down my reflections (размышления): who knows, maybe I would to be a founder of a new direction in philosophy after being alone for 100 days.
And, of course, I would take some items for maintenance (поддержание) of hygiene ['haid3i:n] and some clothes. That's all. But I hope that I will never have such a voyage.
