How did I choose programming:
Life is good, if you see the purpose, see some ways of its achievement and will manage to think up your next purpose in an hour after have finished with previous.
Life: is a search of sense which is not exist; is a running from yourself; is a methodical self-destruction and attempts of to restore.
The choice of a speciality almost always occurs in such conditions. My parents saw two variants - Medical institute and Railway institute, while I was dreaming to be the cosmonaut, to make ten discoveries, to move the sister from my room.
It seemed to me, that Railway institute - not romantic enough for studying, and the Railway - not so cheerful for working. The youthful maximalism demanded to work at least in investigation!
I was thinking about profession of psychologist, and could study at Medical university, but I was not assured about my knowledges of physics and chemistry - so I didn't submit my documents at all.
The matter is that the physics and chemistry was taught badly in my school, and computer science, on the contrary, very good.
By the way, my teacher on computer science - Michael Romanovich Terovanesov, now is the pro-rector in Donetsk Institute of the Railway transportation.
I was really inspired by the computer science lessons, and have found out, that some schoolmates have already risked to enter a computer speciality in DonNTU. So I have chosen the purpose: DonNTU, CSF, Software engineering.
It was difficult to reach the purpose, because I didn't go on preparatory courses. But I have entered the university! Since then I believe, that dreams come true - it's just necessary to want it very much.

Childhood:
My mother - Margarita Aleksandrovna Panteleeva - is the chief of one of statistics service departments in the national enterprise "Donetsk Railway", the daddy - Gennady Aleksandrovich Panteleev - is the health officer of sanitary-and-epidemiologic station in Makeyevka. When they have met on a sea beach many years ago - they were only students, just like me, even younger!
I was born on July 30th, 1985. Three years and three days later (on August, 2nd, 1988) - my sister Alyonka (Elena Gennadievna Panteleeva) was born.
The age difference of my sister and me is small. I have apprehended the small child as an alive toy. Couple of years later, the alive toy became the harmful girl whom I should look after.
This period is characterized by lots of broken glasses and mirrors, broken devices (including my broken hand), and also brain concussions (basically concussions of mine brain, because it is impossible to fight seriously with small children even if they throw stools to your head). Arranging me of a brain concussion, my sister independently searched adventures on her own head. The couple of unsuccessful cases have balanced our chances (probably therefore both of us have chosen a trade programming with a three years difference).

School:
The comprehensive school of Donetsk #47 has brought some corrective amendments in my life.
Up to the sixth class it was frank laziness to study, it was more interesting to bring up my hamsters (and there was a whole family them), to run on streets, to jump on fences and to investigate nearby construction and waste heaps, and to receive from parents many reproaches in this occasion. I do not think, that someone from present friends will suspect me of similar children's hobbies.
Somehow I was occurred with an idea: studying isn't, and studying well isn't bad too! And what for that idea has come??
Since then infinite participations in Olympiads, debate on jurisprudence and other actions where pupils are obliged to protect "honour of school" have begun. That is surprising, I was better in Russian and Ukrainian language Olympiads.
I hope teachers wouldn't kill me if I notice: only lessons of some teachers were perceived as something greater, than 45 minutes expectation of the break-ring!
It is difficult to list all teachers, who influenced on my life. Therefore I shall tell about that one teacher, who has predetermined my choice of a speciality.
Mihail Terovanesov was my computer science teacher. I was so far from computers in the beginning of the 10th form. But because of my teacher I became interested in computer science and decided to take up this subject seriously.
Despite the big hostility to my school, the half of final evening was spent in tears and grief. Because I felt that exactly those people who were amicable to me (both pupils and teachers) will remain in the past forever. There were one exception - Dima Baltin - my schoolmate, and now groupmate. He is one of those people who amazes with the purposefulness, enthusiasm and their boundless positive attitude to all life.
I suspect, that leaving university will appear sad too. But there are such projects, as master's portal (where theoretically students leave correct coordinates), and such means of dialogue, as ICQ.

University:
Entering the university is like writing in clean sheet. Nobody knows your past, you will be such, as you want, instead of such, as old friends see you by inertia. It is wonderful. On the other hand, you are the absolute zero for all teachers. There are no friends too.
On the first course I had to spend a lot of time in my mothers office, using her computer, because I had not my own. There was my first computer in the end of the first course that allowed me to complete course-work on programming for pair nights.
New knowledges and skills came fast. It seemed, that we are almost super-programmers. It takes some time before students understand, that the program of university gives the major elements but does not prepare for real problems. At last you understand, that you do not know anything, and think, where you can find it out.
Two factors have been considered at the decision of entering magistracy. There was enough hight a mean score, that allowed me to study in magistracy on a budgetary place. And I did not wanted to remain bachelor. One and a half more years on meditations over the place in this life have seemed tempting prospect.
The problem of patterns creation automatisation always had interested me not as programmer but as tailor-fan. I had offered "Geometrical algorithms of clothes element synthesis" to the scientific adviser as my own theme. This problem is many-sided and it is researched by set of the commercial enterprises. Vitaly Vladislavovich Karabchevsky has agreed with my choice of a subject - and work has begun. First, that I have found out, when I had become interested in similar development more deeply, is an existence of set of paid analogues of a different degree of complexity, but it is another story.

Plans:
Searching of the life meaning has convinced me that it does not exist. Probably, it is difficult for such a great egoist as me to reconcile to any high plan of "creator" (the Universe / global reason) about my existence.
Thus, we have only one life, we have zero sense of it. What could we do all our life, on exclusively own desire?
I think, that the person should realize whenever possible (I also mean morally-ethical frameworks of a society an opportunity or impossibility) all the ideas and desires. Because they comes into his head, but they could never come at all.
Job and career have the direct relation to realization of ideas: they can be both means, and the purpose.
Result:
The plans, concerning all my life - to realize as much as it possible creative ideas.
The plans, concerning work and career, - to receive as much as it possible opportunities for self-realization, namely:
In half a year - to graduate successfully;
In half a year and two weeks - to get perspective and interesting job, to recollect the hobbies;
In 5 years - to get wonderful, and the main thing - my own, house (however, it agree an apartment), owing to perspective job, that was received before;
In 7 years - to be enough independent person to have an opportunity of a choice of any liked activity (well, I can continue working in programming, but no more just a programmer, but one of the main developers);
In 10 years - to rethink vital priorities once again ( because it is reasonable to doubt in vital program choice correctness of the 20-years student).
