Hello,

I’m writing to wish you a most enjoyable first working day at a new place!

P.S. A minute ago I  tried to start a new page, but failed – and here it is, specially for you! I feel proud, though it turned out to be VERY easy (I hope in a week’s time I’ll feel awkward reading my confessions of being totally ignorant in manipulating the blog , but I’ve never felt ashamed to learn and to show my ignorance))

So,  good luck for tomorrow!

      Are you going to Karelia again? I can’t believe it! Lucky you! This world isn’t fair – and I’m sitting at the computer in a totall mess after the flood))

    my new phrase for today “kill or cure”

    • Ashanina говорит:

      I liked that ‘almost’)) and I like alliterations in English – they sound nice. Last time we used ‘brown as a berry’ and now I’m really ‘hungry as a hunter’, though it’s too early.
      Have a nice day and I’ll keep the fingers crossed for you!

    • Ashanina говорит:

      I hope you’ll find good friends here too – I ‘ll open a page “Discussing the latest films, books etc. I liked”
      Take care! Lots of love (as usual))

  3. Olya говорит:

  4. ira belka говорит:

    Hello to all, who’ll read this.
    Thahk you for inviting me to this blog, makes me feel so special:)))))
    First day of work is stunning.
    I’ve seen short funny sketches of “Monty Python” at youtude (it’s a group of british comics).
    Some are very funny, if you manage to go through their inglish:))))))))

  5. Anna говорит:

    Thanks for you care) ! Today we are together in a new pleace, it looks as we are newer bееn separate!
    Have a nice day! Hoop i’ll make lots of good fotos))

  6. Olya говорит:

    I love our new place, and we can have our English class here on Wednesday)
    p.s. Ira, I also like Monty Python))) especially their “meaning of life”

  7. Ashanina говорит:

    And I’ve never heard the name, as usual(( – but i’ll find MP at Youtube))

  8. Ashanina говорит:

    Olya – I’ve made the ‘new film, etc’ page – what films should I see next?

  9. Olya говорит:

    Hello))
    Our first working week has already finished))
    All of us like this place and atmosphere!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Here are some of phrases about footwear:

    Lace-up ankle and calf boots look feminine with high heels and pointed toes.
    Winter boots take inspiration from hiking footwear. (“hiking” means here military style)
    Thick platforms are seen as well as a sky-scraping wedge.
    Sports-inspired fringed tongues become a key styling detail for women’s winter footwear.

    Have a nice weekend)))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))

    • Ashanina говорит:

      I’m happy you liked the new place. I know you liked the atmosphere just because you created it! And you are a great teacher – I could understand everything in your footwear article. But I don’t like lace-up shoes, they don’t look feminine at all. Sometimes (or most of the time) they look vulgar to me.
      Thanks God tastes differ! But when I like a person, I start liking everything about them, even lace-up shoes))

  10. Ashanina говорит:

    http://totemi.ru/catalog/section.php?SECTION_ID=247 – I wanted to send the link directly to Ira, and then remembered about the blog. I love lots of items of their jewellery collections.
    Enjoy!

  11. милeди говорит:

    Большое спасибо за замечательную возможность оставлять комментарии на Вашей странице!

  12. Ashanina говорит:

    Ira,Olya – welcome back from Sziget! I can’t wait to hear/see your funny stories. I hope Ira’s purse is with her this time))

  13. Виктор Евсеев говорит:

    Интересная тема, продолжайте. Иногда нахожу ответы, которые получить самому просто не хватает времени. Спасибо!

  14. Anna говорит:

    Hi! I came back from Kareliya and have lots of photos) I is interesting, if i could to put some photos somewhere in this blog? Or possible to write comments only?
    I hoop to see A.L. in our new office. So, pls., if you, Anna L’vovna will be soon in our new place, pls., pick up my textbook. I left it lust time at your home.

  15. Ashanina говорит:

    Anya, welcome back! Your book is with me)) – when I’m at your place, I’ll bring it. I hope to see all of you in your new office soon (and your pics – I have to change the hosting to display them and soon I’ll have another site, too)
    Have a nice day,
    lots of love

  16. кyкyшка говорит:

    Просто отлично – очень интересные мысли. Разжевано специально как будто бы для меня :)

  17. Ashanina говорит:

    Just another word for you. Shress.When I saw it, my wild guess was it was smth like an ugly dress (a combination of ‘Shrek’ and ‘dress’, but it was completely wrong)) it’s just an article of clothing that is a mix between a shirt and a dress. Best described as those frilly tops that girls wear over jeans or tights and often wear boots along with them.

    Vanessa looked great in her bright green shress and matching boots.

  18. Olya говорит:

    I liked this word (combination of shirt and dress)
    today I also saw shirt/jacket hybrid for men, but they didn’t have special name for it)
    my phrase: “However, don’t go overboard with styling as the mannequins should be used to simplify the look – keep the message simple”

  19. Olya говорит:

    working weekend hello))))))))))))))))))))
    my new words:
    ascendancy
    rendition
    and my favourite – inherently

    looking good but still feeling sad,
    Olya

  20. Ashanina говорит:

    Olya, thanks for keeping me in shape with words))
    I can’t imagine you feeling sad for a long time, so, I don’t feel worried – they were just nice words meant to make me smile))
    ‘Ascendancy’ went far away from ‘ascend’, but I can see it as a result of ascending.
    What meaning of ‘rendition’ you meant isn’t quite clear, that’s why I like seeing words in context.
    ‘Inherent’ requires prep. ‘in’, if needed, e.g.
    - Dance is also an inherent part of the culture.
    - Surgical procedures have many risks inherent in them.

  21. Ashanina говорит:

    Just another funny newly coined word – mascary

    when a person wears a scary amount of mascara.
    Have a nice evening – I’m sure you won’t look mascary))

  22. Anna говорит:

    Hi! I like this mascary- it is funny))

  23. Anna говорит:

    My favorite phrase at the moment..”the greatest thing I ever learned – to love and be loved in returned”

  24. Ashanina говорит:

    The very last thing I did yesterday was writing my response to Anya’s phrase. I must have forgotten to press the ‘submit’ button, because it’s gone.
    So, Anya I love the phrase, because it’s not just a phrase but ‘to love and to be loved in return’ is the most exciting feeling one can experience in life. And if someone has learned to control the process they must feel v -e-e-e-r-y (as Olya puts it) proud!
    Have a nice day!

  25. Ashanina говорит:

    Now I remember my initial comment – I thought that this feeling of control might be just another illusion – ours is a maya world. I believe so.

  26. Ashanina говорит:

    Masha! I opened the page to congratulate you on this unreally real event – your son is going to school! It’s so touching that I feel happy for you. I do hope that he’ll like schooling and the school and all the experience it’ll bring!

  27. Ashanina говорит:

    Ira – this post is for you.Today I’ve come across not the German variant of “свиной грипп” we discussed one of these days, but ‘Swine Flu’(Also this week, we’re looking to hear from anyone who has experienced Swine Flu during the holidays and would like to share their experiences with us.)

  28. Olya говорит:

    hello))
    how are you)
    we have loooot’s of work now, you can’t imagine!
    but i always have time to read your blog)
    by the way Siedah Garrett used wrong form of verb “have”, didn’t she?)
    it’s a typical mistake for russian as well) when there are many nouns and one verb many people connect a verb just with the last noun (not with all of them)

    my words:
    get high
    get loose

    much love))))))))))

  29. Olya говорит:

    morning hello)
    a nice phrase with our special terms:
    ‘Detailing becomes essential with small pleats and gathers creating an innocent movement to sheer fabrics against flowing satin edges.’
    have a nice day))))))))))))))

  30. Ashanina говорит:

    Olya, thanks for your nice comments – they always make me happy))
    I got a message about your comment just when I was going to share two links with you – here they are:
    - http://demiart.ru/forum/index.php?showtopic=45810 – I got fascinated and inspred when I saw that forum (but it requires registration);
    - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bw7mQZHfFVE (it’s also in Russian but very inspiring. I think Anya will like it.
    Have a good week and hope to see you soon.
    Say hello to the girls.

  31. Olya говорит:

    i’ve just seen the phrase: winterize your wardrobe)

  32. Ashanina говорит:

    Word formation is a topic we discuss too little – why do we deprive ourselves of this pleasure, I wonder…

  33. Olya говорит:

    night hello)
    my new word for today
    treatise:
    When white and black come together the result is an intriguing treatise on modern dressing

    I’ll go to sleep while the going is good)
    I know that it doesn’t suit here much, but I wanted to use it somehow)
    have a nice weekend)))))))))))

  34. Olya говорит:

    working sunday hello)))))))))))))))
    new word
    app:
    The iPhone has added an app that allows users to finger-paint without getting their hands dirty.
    and I liked a phrase:
    Nostalgia is a key factor in brand messaging. The clearer your brand message, the stronger the connection to your product and your consumer.

    • Ashanina говорит:

      Working SUNDAY hello?!! – Isn’t that too much?
      I was 200 metres away from your office yesterday, but didn’t dare to disturb you. I miss you a lot!
      I wonder what ‘app’ stands for? I like the idea, anyway. I spent about 30 minutes finger-painting last week and got my hands ve-e-e-ry dirty))
      I don’t know how to finish the message- can I wish you a day-off after the rush is over and success at the exhibition?

  35. Ashanina говорит:

    Hello, again ! The blog has moved to lovenglish.ru – you are all welcome there!
    Do you want your page to be something like a closed forum or everybody is welcome?

  36. Артур Конев говорит:

    Я подписался на РСС ленту, но посты почему-то в виде каких-то квадратиков :( Как это исправить?

    • Ashanina говорит:

      Добро пожаловать туда!
