Hey guys
How is your Russian comming? Mine is going well. been so busy no time to blog but i just had to today. its been along time so i needed to write.
ok so not many tips except music tv books and speaking with people. so i guess i will talk about what i am thinking about the most. its september and its getting colder. the leaves are changing and i can almost feel the frost in the air. before we know it winter will be here. I think of snow hitting st basils cathedral and i hear russian music playing in the background. i feel pride as i wear my russian sweater listening to the Acapella version of the russian anthem which i will link at the end of the post.
I love the blini i make and the fillings. the ukrainian music haha. the golubtsi and i lately am starting to be russian. i told my mom the other day in the resturant. this isnt stroganoff its simply beef cooked with no sauce on noodles and sourcream. i say there is no such thing as perogies they are and ALWAYS WILL BE VARENYKY! only polish say pierogi all russians ukrainians belarussians say varenyky because they are boiled not pies.
i love listening to the russian news some of which makes me happy i can understand. listening comprehension is still not my strongest point and i need to work on that allot. this summer i got to spend with 2 lovely russian girls from st petersburg my favorite city! whenever i go back to my old russian books just to see my progress i learn something new. i love the feeling of that interesting surprise. like the different between я учу русский я учу русскому one means to learn the other to teach. google gets this wrong often.
my favorite song at the moment is ukrainian
Їхали козаки із Дону додому
awesome song.
tell me what you enjoy about russian culture. i plan to blog more but my life is busy with 3 jobs and volunteering trying to make my way in this world. lord help me get to russia i would be happy. also started to learn ukrainian but i mean kinda been picking up since i started russian 4 years ago. 4 YEARS OMG i cant belive it its comming up so fast. well hope to write more soon when it isnt bed time for me. 5 am tomrrow lord help me. bye for now write back to me wanna hear your progress
