I was born at New Year’s night of 1981 being a weak and sickly boy. Owing to thorough care I had quicly putted on weight and grown prettier. Early, during the end of the first year of my life, I began to speak. Except this I was an ordinary child loving mother endearment and sweeties. Recalling those days I remember I liked to recite poems in park hearing voices of moved adults.
I went to two kindergartens. First one was near my granny’s workplace and was called “Rucheiok”. In year 1988 we went into a new appartment and “Rucheiok” gave place to “Kosmonavt”. There I had met one boy called Dan and we became friends. Both we had a reputation of inventers – frequently we brought wires, batteries, motors, little lamps and other electrical stuff from our homes, putted them all together producing buzz and blinking which enraptured other children.
When I was six I began to attend comprehensive and musical schools simultaneously. Some pedagogue drew attention to my absolute hearing and intended me a future of a great musician, but my initial enthusiasm dashing to pieces on solfeggio granite was quickly degenerated into a full indifference. In seven years I will get the violinist diploma in spite of the fact that all the time I was a mediocre pupil. In the ordinary school I liked physics, math and biology – interest in humanities was born many years later.
Soliciting my father one day I had got the programmable microcalculator. Spending long hours pressing keys I observed magic-blinking digits. Those days I fall in love with programming. Realizing my passion parents put me to computer circle where I began to study Basic for Zx-Spectrum computer. In that teenage lifetime period I also went to Judo section, young seamen’s club, studied English with a private tutor.
At age fifteen I started to feel bore and realized need of some radical changes in my life. So I decided to go to Israel for studying (I got this chance because my father is Jew). It took a year to convince my parents to let me go. First years were very impressive and exciting. After school graduating my educational programme was complete but I decided to stay in Israel. So I began to serve in Army. Carefree life of Israeli soldier letted me to join the university. Keeping in mind my school success in physics I chose to study this subject by correspondence.
After discharge I worked as a security officer continuing to study university cources. My life became measured and borring again so I began to miss parents, to feel nostalgic for my homeland, native language and mentality. In several months I had returned home. Before I had got Ukrainian passport I already continued my study in DonNTU to be a software engineer. Soon I began to work as a programmer accumulating my professional skills. After bachelor’s degree receipt I continued my study taking master’s course. At that time I was keen on distributed systems and they became the subject of my MPhil.
On graduating from the university I plan to work as a software engineer. With any luck, I could have built my own bussiness of writing and selling software products. Also I plan to marry, to start a family and to live a simple life of an ordinary human.
