My Favorite Day

Some days are important than the others. These days can change your life. The events from this days can be positive or negative, big events or small ones. Of course for each person they are different. I would like to tell you about my little event from my life.

Last Spring I and my friends went to Seattle on the USC 12. USC is the main music event in our state that held several times in a year. On that event come top Dj’s from around the globe. So we went to see “Chemical Brothers” and “The Prodigy”. These bands are legends in the Electronic music, and both are from Britain.

The show started from 8 p.m. and ended at 4 a.m. This was amazing show. There were around five thousand people dancing in the WAMU theatre. WAMU theatre is very good place for such events because it is huge building that can hold up to ten thousand people in it. It’s located right in the center of Seattle near Quest Field.

From the last essay you remembered that my favorite music band is “The Prodigy”. So that was my night because I was on their live show first time in my life. They started to play from 2 a.m. till 3 a.m. That was my best hour of my life. I was jumping and screaming the words of the songs in the crowd. While I was doing it I hold my camera in my hand and recorded the show. In the middle of the gig some guy accidently knocked my camera out of my hand. The camera flew straight into the crowd. I was stunned. In that moment I did not care about the camera, but about the video I was recorded. So in couple minutes my camera turned back to me and I was really shocked by the fact that the camera turned back because I don’t expect that somebody can pick it up in such a mess. First, I look at the camera but nothing was wrong with it. Then I checked the memory card, but the video did not survive.

On the next day I was little bit upset about it. Well that was my little event from my life. This event is very important for me because I am listening to “The Prodigy” more than half of my life. Before that day I have never thought that I can be on their live show. I believe that it wasn’t the last time I saw them live. I would like to be there at least one more time.

The results of the quaterfinals

The crazy perfomance of Lionel Messi against Arsenal, Bayern Munich closed the door for Manchester United, Moscow can't do nothing with Milan and derby between two French clubs were the highlights of the Champions League quarterfinals.

The best player of the last season Lionel Messi scored four goals and killed the Arsenal 4-1 (6-3 aggreagate). Now Barcelona will play with Inter Milan in semifinals. The Italians won Russians by 1-0(2-0agg.) and got the ticket with no problems.

Louis Van Gaal's(Munchen coach) Bayern lost to Manchester United 3-2 but the goals on the away stadium gave them the pass to the semifinals. Manchester United had a great start. The team from England scores 2 goals in the first seven minutes, but the German team proved to be a big club in history just like their opponents from the UK.

Bayern will play with Lyon(France), who lost to Bordeaux in second match (0-1), but classified due to aggregate score(3-2agg.). As we know, the final game will take place in Madrid this year.

Descriptive Essay, Draft 1

Right now my life is very busy. I am a full-time student and a full-time hard worker. And this is continues almost year and a half. When I came to USA I thought that my life here will be not so hard, but it’s all good I’m young and I have a lot of energy.
I don’t know what is going on with climate here, but I know that this climate is not for me. For that short period
of time that I live here I was sick a lot of times. Maybe this is all because of my really busy schedule. I sleep six hours and this is not enough for me. My plan for near future is to change my job on something easier, part time or something. Maybe after that I will fill better.
Today I feel really bad. I have a toothache and I need to make an appointment to the dentist. When you sick or something bad happened with you, you can’t work or study as good as you can. I know everything about this situation because it is follow me last half a year.

Fabulous Champions League Quarter-Finals first leg on Tuesday and Wednesday night.

Arsenal 2:2 Barcelona
Inter 1:0 CSKA Moskva
Lyon 3:1 Bordeaux
Bayern Munchen 2:1 Manchester United
Every team show really good soccer and each team worth to be in the Quarter-Final. The scores of the games are fair in my opinion.
I have watched only two games out of four, Bayern Munchen vs Manchester United and Inter vs CSKA Moskva. The team from Moscow was really lucky that they missed only one because it can be 3 or even 5:0. Inter madу lots of great moments but the ball won't go through the gate. That's why all players of the CSKA must to say thanks for this to their very good goalkeeper. CSKA defended the whole game in Italy and they have not create any attacks, but I think that it would be another game in Moscow because they would play in front of their fans and on their motherland!

Champions League is the best soccer tournament between the best soccer clubs in Europe. The last winner is F. C. Barcelona.
