My Media Inventory




1)Good books can make a world of difference in our life. I think that without books life would be very meaningless. During all our life books are with us. When I was a child my parents read me tales and stories. I like to read books about nature and animals. I like to give and to get gifts. When someone makes me present books I feel myself happier. If I have free time I like to spend it with my favorite books. We can learn many interesting things from books. Books help us in self-education. Books must be our friends during all our life.


2) I’m very curious person. I always want to know the latest news happens all over the world. Newspaper is the best way to follow the news. It is a mirror through which we see the world. As I’m a football fan I always read football news. When I get bored I solve the crosswords and I don’t even understand that how the time was passed. Magazines are the integral part of my life. I have all numbers of Ok!, Dream and All Stars magazines. I like to read the interviews of celebs. Because I think interviews help us to know more about our favorite stars.







3) Music has always been a part of every culture. It has become a part of people, and who they are. I think that we don’t have to categorize the music that we listen to. Music isn’t something that we listen anymore, it’s who we are. I think that music is very important thing in our life, because we can be much more relaxed when we are listening to music. After a school day I come home and turn on the music player and listen to music. When I do that I forget all my problems. And I think that music will be existing for the last day of human kind.

4) Playing video games is my favorite occupation. When I play video games I feel myself like a hero of this game. GTA, Quake Arena, Need For Speed Most Wanted, Pes 2009, Madagascar 2 are my favorite video games.






5) Computer plays very important role in my life. I start my day with computer and end my day with computer. I play games, listen to music, do my homework and etc. The advantages of computer are endless for me. I can’t imagine my life without computers. It’s very important invention for us. Computer makes everything faster and easier. To me, it is like having a very knowledgeable friend to go to when I need some information or need to have some relax time.









6) There is no doubt that internet changed our life in a positive way. Now we can learn whatever we want with just one click. I contact with my friends from abroad, find and read different articles, watch videos, download my favorite mp3s and wallpapers for my desktop. I make a lot of friendships via internet.
