Summer holidays are the longest and the funniest vacations in the year. We’re always looking forward to the summer vacations. And when they come, we put our school backpacks aside and completely forget about boring school life. It’s time to have fun and take a rest!
This summer the weather was great! It was neither too hot nor cold. At the beginning of June (early in June), I decided immediately to enroll in the swimming pool, because I am fond of swimming. Dad insisted that in addition I should sign up for karate hobby group. He believes that every man should be able to stand up for himself. I also think so, therefore I gladly accepted the offer. My sister enjoys dancing, and we enrolled her in the dance-club.
The whole June and half of July I was engaged in the hobby circle, walked and ran about the street with friends. From time to time I did the homework that teachers assigned for summer vacations. At the end of July we went to the sea with my parents. We sunbathed, made tours and talked with strangers there.
In August, they bought me a summer camp voucher for 10 days. Camp is the most amusing place where I happened to stay. Every day we were doing something interesting and fascinating. We walked down the hills, went hiking, did rock climbing. From time to time we learned to draw, play the guitar and the synthesizer. But what I liked the most - gatherings around the campfire. We sang songs, told horror stories to one another and heated ourselves at the fire there.
Перевод
Летние каникулы – самые длинные и веселые каникулы в году. Мы всегда с нетерпением ждем начала летних каникул. И когда они наступают, мы оставляем свои рюкзаки в стороне и напрочь забываем о школьных нудных буднях. Время веселиться и отдыхать!
Погода этим летом было замечательная! Не было ни слишком жарко, ни холодно. В начале июня я решил сразу записаться в бассейн, потому что я обожаю плавать. Папа настоял, чтобы я записался еще и на кружок карате. Он считает, что каждый парень должен уметь постоять за себя. Я тоже также считаю, поэтому с радостью принял такое предложение. Сестра моя любит танцевать, и мы ее записали ее на танцы.
Целый июнь и пол-июля я занимался в кружке, гулял и бегал на улице с друзьями. Время от времени я делал уроки, которые нам задавали учителя на летние каникулы. А конце июля мы отправились на море вместе с родителями. Там мы загорали, совершали экскурсии и общались с незнакомыми людьми.
В августе мне приобрели путевку в лагерь на 10 дней. Лагерь – это самое веселое место, где мне удалось побывать. Каждый день мы были заняты чем-то интересным и увлекательным. Мы спускались с гор, совершали пешие прогулки, занимались скалолазанием. Время от времени мы учились рисовать, играть на гитаре и на синтезаторе. Но что мне понравилось больше всего – посиделки у костра. Там мы пели песни, рассказывали ужастики друг другу и просто грелись у костра.
The closest to us are our parents. I love them very much. I see them every day. They are people of old school. They think that business is always before pleasure. I am not a couch potato, but sometimes it is so difficult to work. When it is spring, I want to walk and play, I do not want to study. We have come to an agreement. When I come from school, I have dinner and go for a walk. After that I come home and do my homework, wash dishes and help my mommy about the house.
Then there is the question of fashion. I want to have fashionable clothes. My parent say that the clothes and the singers I like are awful! The youth fashion is Greek to them. That is why we quarrel sometimes. But we can deal very well. When they want to give me an exiting present, we go shopping together, and they offer me to choose what I want. When I receive guests I wear the clothes my mother gives to me. My mother sews and knits very well, I like to wear her presents, becauce she buys fashion magazines.
The same with music. In my room I can listen to the music I like. When guests come to my parents, we listen to the music they like.
But in spite of this, I love my parent very much. And I try to do all my best not to make them upset.
