Autobiography
The first page of my life
I have never believed in fortuities, and I also have had no great faith in fate. That's why everything that happens with me I can call the synergy of these two oppositions. And indeed because of such a fateful fortuity I came into being at that time, when many people wait for miracles and fulfilment of their dreams, wishes, and hopes. On the second day of 1989 the world smiled me for the first time and folded me in its arms, together with strong and soft embraces of my mother.
The period of my pre-school life I remember vaguely, but many recollections are very vivid: “the first love”, “the songs on the chair before the guests”, “the costume of crazy rabbit at the performance in the kindergarten”, and, of course, “child's dreams”, which long to be fulfilled…
It has always seemed to me that the whole world is just mine, that it was created just for me alone, and the only business of all other people is to watch me. And even at that time all the affords to rise above the crowd brought me great pleasure. I had different ways to do this: used “recondite” phrases, dressed and behaved creatively different, performed wild deeds. In my opinion, exactly such actions and fantasies prompted my creative potential in the future, and created such a person, as I am today.
The second page of my life
During this period were born all my basic behavioural points and personal characteristics. The feeling of responsibility for myself, my actions, my close people started developing for the first time. Such words as “family” and “friends” took on new meanings in my mind, from the level physical (vocabulary) understanding to the level of spiritual.
At the time of the upper school I understood that there is a clear division of roles in society. It had been difficult for me to determine my role until the second year of the university. So deep emotional experiences took me out of the state of a sanguineous euphoria to the state of a choleric depression.
But still I think that I have come through the period of my personal development with dignity. This period can be characterized in the following way:
- In 2002 I finished Donetsk Regional “School of leaders” (amounting to the “Golden Twenty”).
- In 2003 I finished Game Educational Programme “The Academy of Success” (under the jurisdiction of Donetsk Regional Administration).
- In 2005 I received a graduate certificate of “Children and youth creativity centre” of Petrovsky district, Donetsk (as a vocalist of variety song ensemble “Zadorinky”).
- In 2005 I finished Donetsk school of general education #100 (with golden medal). I was marked as one of the best 11 school leavers 2005 in Donetsk. My favourite subjects at school were geography, chemistry, music.
- I actively participated in creative life of my school, my district and my city.
I express special gratitude for training and developing in me positive thoughts and qualities to my form-masters (Starinets L.M., Gordienko I.A., Mikolaenko A.G.), to school teachers, and especially to Plakova I.V., who has developed my creative, leadership and organisational potential.
The third page of my life
The story on this “page” hasn't been written to the end jet. But now it came the time to sum up and make conclusions.
Analyzing the whole aggregate of experience, information, skills, contacts, and, finally, knowledge that was given to me by the student years, I come to the conclusion, that rationality, timeliness, and concernment are the main principles, which I take with me out of the university walls.
DonNTU has taught me a lot of things (previously unknown, but very important): the ability to say “no”, “to be in opposition”, to see a true nature of a person, to understand much of the principles of an individual existence in society.
Recently I was asked: “Will I have good or bad memories about student years?” Of course I would tell lie if I told you that there was no negative moments. But I know for sure that I won't recollect them, because only good things always leave in our memory, and there was a lot of them. My beloved group “05b” at the faculty of Human resources and labour economics and all its members are true friends, dear to my memory teachers… eh… All this is indelible…
01.09.2005 - is a day, when I became a student of Donetsk National Technical University, faculty of Human resources and labour economics. For these five years I have fulfilled the duties of group monitor, have actively participated in creative and scientific life of the university:
- for 4 years I have been a member of the Trade union;
- participated in student scientific conferences;
- performed during some combined and thematic concerts of the university;
- for 3 years I was an editor and a journalist of a students' newspaper Polnyj Abzac;
- simultaneously study at the faculty of Polish (under the jurisdiction of DonNTU);
- I am also a member of international student organisation AIESEC.
At the present moment, having a great tiredness of studying and huge wish to work, I know that I will miss…
The pages unwritten
I don't like looking ahead, so I won't write much.
I move forward with “Napoleonic” plans. I'm sure that I will find a job to fall in love with and to self-actualize with a help of. By means of travelling I would like to make the acquaintance with the world's culture. I dream about big and close-knit family.
