"Nimed marmortahvlil"

Film "Nimed Marmortahvlil" on loodud Albert Kivikase raamatu järgi, mis jutustab meile Eesti Vabadussõja ajast. Selle tegelased on noored, kommertskooli õpilased, vabatahtlikus sõdurid. Film kirjeldab nende julgeid lahinguid, nende võidusid ja lüüasaamisi ja üldse nende meeleolusid sõja jooksul. Film näitab väga hästi kuidas sõda teeb poisist, kes on harjunud oma vanemate peale lootma vapra mehe ja sõduri, kes ei sõltu kellelgist vaimselt ja loodab ainult enda peale. On nii kahju vaadata kuidas sõda murdab imimesi. Kõik me saame aru, et mitte iga täiskasvanud inimene saab niisuguse ollukorraga hakkama, aga noorele kes pole veel lõppuni vaimuliselt arenenud on veel õudsem seda läbi elada.
Tahaks eraldi rääkida peategelasest. Sõjasündmuste kõrval keskendub film peategelase Henn Ahase tundmustele ja siseheitlustele. Ahas on tavalisest, vaesest maaperest pärit. Ja Vabadussõda teeb temal kahestamist. Ühest küljest on ta eesti rahvuslane, teisest küljest sotsialist. Talle toeks olev vend on punakaartlane ja isa kommunismimeelne. Raske olukord riigis on vastandanud raskele olukorrale selles peres. Rahumeelses olukorras me ei saagi ette kujutada kui raske on elada peres, mille liikmetel on täiesti erinevad eluvaated, silmaring, ideoloogia, veenmised, ebajumalad. Ja hoolimata sellest nad suudavad perekonnaks jääda, aga igaüks jääb ka isikuks, kes saab veel heasse usuda ja on valmis kõigile vaatamata võidelda oma keelituste eest.

The book review.

I would like to share my feelings about the Theodore Dreiser's book, Sister Carrie. This story is about a young country girl who moves to the big city where she starts realizing her dreams. The plot of the story centers on describing evolution and degradation of humans soul and personality.

Dissatisfied with her life young 18-year-old Caroline "Sister Carrie" Meeber takes the train to Chicago. where her older sister Minnie, and her husband Sven Hanson, have agreed to take her in. On the train, Carrie meets Charles Drouet, a traveling salesman, who is attracted to her because of her simple beauty and unspoiled manner. They exchanged their contacts and after a few weeks Carrie complains Drouet about the poor conditions and negative atmosphere in her relatives house. Salesman saves her from this hell and from a hard work, which is really backbreaking for her.
By the time Drouet introduces Carrie to George Hurstwood, the manager of Fitzgerald and Moy's – a respectable bar that Drouet describes as a "swell place". After that acquaintance her life changes dramatically...

I thoughtfully enjoyed this work. I admire main heroine for her courage and willpower, her positive attitude to a ruthless world around her no matter what happens, her wish to move along resist everything that life offers her, her desire to try something new. I really like how author makes antagonists resist each other, although trying to find similarity in their characters. I am really impressed by this novel and I can't say a word of criticism about it.

All in all, I recommend everyone to read this book, even if you are not a fan of this author, because it describes vital situations, which could meet us in our own lifes. It may help you to live through some crisis and realize that everything in your own hands.

Stress.

Tänapaevases täiesti hullu tempoga elus stress - on see, mis mõjutab meid iga päev. Stress on inimese organismi vastus vaevanõudvale või ähvardavale situatsioonile. Kõige sagedamini stress ootab just meid, õpilasi ja üliõpilasi. Koolis õppides te saaksite tihti kuulda kaebusi pea- ja kõhuvalude, higipeopesade peale. See juhtub kui pead mõned eksamid sooritada või lihtasalt ei oleme mõneks tööks valmis, võivad ilmuda ka isiklikud probleemid sõpradega või sugulastega. Kõik see takistab keskendumist.
Aga mitte kõik õpilased tunnevad suurt ülekoormust või stressi. Minul ei vedanud, seepärast olen üks liiga närvilistest. Ja tahaksin teiega jagama kuidas mina ise stressiga toime tulen.
Kõigepealt räägin natuke sellest, mis stressi tekitab. Selle vältides te saate ennast paremini tunda. Siin on mõned nõuanned.
Tee võimalikult ainult seda milles sa kindel oled. Õpi lükata ettepanekuid, millega sa ei saa hakkama. Tee endale vahetunde, jaluta natuke või maga, käi trenni, kuula natuke lemmikmuusikat. Proovi toituda paremini, väldi suitsetamist ja alkoholi tarbimist. Räägi oma sõbrale või vanematele oma mõttetest ja hirmudest. Ja kindlasti püüa teha üks kõik millised absurdsed stressisituatsioonid naeruks. Naer vähendab stressi.

How to reduce stress? | Letter for principal

Dear Sir,


I am writing to tell you about the things, that I had figure out studying in your school. Everyone knows, that schooling is really difficult process and all the pupils often feel stress. Some of them feel it from time to time, some get read of eat only after leaving the school.(Especially primary school students who are not used to cope with that.)
And now I am going to share my opinion about how to reduce stress.
First of all I would say that we need a little bit more time for the rest and of course the place where we can fully relax not to stay in that noisy, narrow corridor which is always full of children. Some of us have an extra lessons or even some hobbies or work too and it is usually necessary to have a look through your homework to feel more ready. Secondly, I would like our teacher inform us better what is going to be in our test works, because you really feel more confident when you know exactly what kind of exercises you have to cope with not waste the time learning needless facts.
And additionally I think that teachers have to be more understanding, because sharing your thoughts, fears and problems with him or her helps to reduce stress and to be afraid of nothing.
I am looking forward to hearing from you as soon as possible. Hope that you will agree and help me to make some of this suggestions real.



Yours faithfully,
Pakk Valeria

Essay | Intelligence or abilities?

Some people believe that intelligence has more to do with a person's potential than with their abilities.
I slightly agree with this statement. Intelligence is knowledge, experience, enterprise. Like three in one. And this three aspects are the components of success. And if you include efficiency and self-confidence it could be really the greatest combination.

But I have to say something in favor of abilities and talents. There is a tiny amount of people who have an amazing talents and all evidence to achieve their purposes. But the most of this not so numerous group of people get there results easily and just become smug and presumptuous. It is a serious problem, because that is why they become narrow minded, they will not move themselves and their business along.

So, no matter what, we definitely have to add a lot of hard work. This main component is extremely important. Without it neither intelligence nor abilities will realize your potential. And in contradistinction to intelligence and abilities only the hard work can make not really intelligent and not really talented person successful and only this person will truly worth it.

Funny Job.

One day homeless actor is visiting the zoo hoping to earn some money as a street performer. Whereas he starts to draw attention of a crowd, a zoo keeper calls him into his office. The zoo keeper explains to the actor that the zoo's most popular animal, an orangutan, has died unexpectedly and the keeper is scared that interest of visitors at the zoo will decrease.

He offers the actor a job to dress up as the monkey until they can get another one. He agrees.

So the next day the actor wearing the orangutan suit enters the cage before the visitors come. He found out that it is a funny job, he liked it a lot. He could have a rest anytime he wants, play and make fun of people and he attracted bigger crowds than the zoo ever did. However, sooner or later the people tire of him and he tires of just hanging on tires. Eventually, he begins to figure out that the people are paying more attention to the lion in the other cage. Not wanting to lose the attention of his audience, he piles in to the top of his cage, climbed over a baffle, and hangs down from the top to the lion's cage. As a result, this makes the lion angry, but the public loves it.

In the evening the zoo keeper comes and gives the actor a raise for being so willing. Well, this goes on for some time, the actor goes on annoying the lion, the audience grow larger, and his wages keeps growing too. Then one terrible day when he is dangling over the furious lion he falls. The actor is frightened.

The lion gathers itself and prepares to attack. The actor is so terrified that he begins to run round and round with the chasing lion behind. Finally, the actor starts shouting and screaming, "Help me, help me!", but the lion is cunning and quick. Therefore the actor soon is flat on his back looking up at the angry lion who says, "Keep your mouth closed, idiot! Do you want to get us both shut?"

Kaebus.

Lp. kaupluse juhataja,


Ostsin 2,12,11 uued mustad seemisnahast kingad teie kauplusest hinnaga 250€. Kahe nädala jooksul kõik oli korras. Aga ühel õhtul jäin vihma kätte ja kingad läksid kohe katki ja pealisnahk oli ära rikutud. Kui paar päeva tagasi tulin kauplusesse loodes oma raha tagasi saada, müüa oli valmis ainult kinke vahetada ja palus, kui niisugune probleemi lahendus ei soobi, pöörduda kaebusega teie juurde. Arvan, et niisuguse kõrge hinna eest, peab olema ka toode kvaliteet kõrgemal tasemel.
