I am going to write about myself. My name is Nastja. I was born in Podolsk on 24 August in 2004. Now I am 14 years old. I am a pupil. Soon I hope I will be a student of a university. I have not decided yet what university I want to choose. When I was a child, I was playing with animals all the time. May be I will be a vet. May be exactly at that time at 10 p.m. in five years I will be doing an operation of a poor animal and I will have saved it by sunset. When I was ten or eleven, I also liked baking. Once I have been baking a cake for my mother since morning. When my brother came home in the evening, he asked me why I was so tired and why I wanted to sleep. Of course, he did not want to sleep! He had not been working like a horse all the day. Baking is a hard work. That cake was wonderful, fortunately. I have not made a choice yet. Soon I will do it. I know for sure I will do everything to achieve an aim. I will have read all books by the exam time, I will enter the university I want and I will work where I want.
