My childhood

- Well, is it time?
- Already?
- Let’s look, maybe there is not so bad?
- I don’t know? I am afraid.
- Fine, I shall go first.
          I was born on the 8th April in 1986 at 11.50 in my native town Gorlovka, and in a 5 minutes there were two of us (my brother and I). My mother was happy. When my father got to know, that his wife gave birthed twins, he was very pleased and surprised. He ran away from maternity home and had forgotten to know are we girls or boys. In some days my brother (his weight was 2.100) and I (2.150) were home. We were surrounded with care of our granny, mum, daddy and great-granny. My mummy, Natalia Sergeevna, is a children's doctor. She treated and protected us. My daddy, Valery Vladimirovich, is a teacher of history and law. He brought up us.
          When two fidgets were 3 years old, our parents decided to give us to the children's garden "Spring". My brother stood and courageously waved his hand to our parents. I cried and couldn’t see anything. That’s why I seized a big white button of a mum's jacket and didn’t wish to meet with my new large family. I was very sad in the garden. I didn’t understand why I am here, instead of been at home with my great-grandmother. She was an ideal for me since the childhood and remains it for all my life. Every summer holidays I spent at the house, which belongs to my granny. In the village I had many friends with whom we played and got grazes. My "pupils": chickens, ducks, rabbits and pigs waited for me at home. But all good comes to the end some time…
          In the summer of 1993 mum has brought us to school №20. It was a real test for me. I was afraid I wouldn’t be accepted because I am a lefthander. I answered the questions, wrote a sentence by right hand and with tears on my eyes I went home.

School

          Here is the 1-st September. A woman in a green suit with an unforgettable smile on her face stand in a cloud of white bows. It was my first teacher Svetlana Aleksandrovna. Our "second mum" has led us to the country of knowledge, she taught us to write, read, draw and appreciate the beautiful. In high classes we had very good teachers. Everyone tried to impart interest to his subject. Entertaining laboratory works on physics, biology, geography, chemistry, open lessons on English language, creative evenings devoted to the Ukrainian writers and poets, theatrical performances of elder pupils - here is a school life. I tried very much and learnt all lessons with special diligence. Unfortunately, any subject didn’t involve me. The physical training was an outlet, and I participated in city sports relay races. Our school was humanitarian and practically all graduates became students of institute of foreign languages. Years flown imperceptible and the time to define with the future profession came. The humanitarian sciences did not involve me, but I also was not delighted in exact sciences.
          Well here is the 11 class. My brother and I decided to enter the railway or technical university. We had a tutor, because we wanted to improve our knowledge at mathematics. Vladimir Mihajlovich taught us to love and to understand this science.
          In 2003 I graduated from school with a "gold" medal, and soon we have entered the ATU and DonNTU.

University

          It was rather difficult for us to enter DonNTU. A great quantity of specialities with the unusual and not understandable names, attractive descriptions of faculties in prospectuses for entrants - everything was so beautifully and fantastically. My brother (Fesenko Anton Valerievich) and I have chosen speciality EAPU at first. Everyday preparation, the experiences, the first rating tests and here is the first failure - I have not entered. The following step was an interview on FCТI and again I have flown by. Thanks to support of my brother and parents I haven’t stopped on "reached".
          ATU has accepted me with open embraces. My brother and I have been enlisted at once on the speciality chosen by us after interview in mathematics. On one hand I was very happy, but on another I was sad. That’s why I have decided to use the last possibility and enter DonNTU by general examination on speciality СSA (FCITA). The miracle has come true!
          The student's life has prepared the next test for me. Our small school with brilliant floors, red and yellow sofas, pictures, children's hand-made articles in mirror cupboard, flowers and lemons in corridors, museums, seemed for me usual earlier. From this "small paradise" I got to a higher educational institution. Sad long corridors, grey walls, fuss, indifferent relation of people to things surrounding them and to each other - here is reality. But, fortunately, it was only the first impression.
          New conditions, hostel №2 - all was unusual for me. The first session has ended for me not so successfully. As they say, better luck next time. Persistence and diligence helped me to overcome arising obstacles.
          When the time has come to choose the theme of scientific work, I had difficulties. From the second course I was engaged at one scientific adviser. On the fourth course I have passed to another scientific adviser (docent of sub-faculty AT Konstantinov Sergey Vsevolodovich). After delivery of baccalaureate examination, I entered the magistrates. As a result of long and painful thoughts my scientific adviser and I have formulated a theme of master’s works: "Development and research of digital system of automatic control of an alternating voltage". Now I work over this project.

Plans for the future

          Now I wish to write master’s work. Then I shall try to defend it. And what will be in the further, I don’t know. What my life will bring me, and how many errors shall I do? As one russian poet I.L.Selvinsky has told: "Any life what would it be - is the world of the missed possibilities". I shall try to lose them as less as possible and to accept all gifts of destiny with gratitude.
