I was invited to Lyceum No. 6 to meet with the students who are in the journalism club and publish the school magazine. It was a good opportunity to visit my old school.
Some of my teachers are still there. I stopped by to see my English teacher, Irina Gordienko.
On Press Day I got a diploma from Mayor Igor Kutsak for developing routes through the sites of famous Kursk residents.
Also, a gubernatorial award shared with designer Tatyana Shakhova. Presented by Deputy Governor Oksana Krutko.
It was my first time in a hot air balloon. The flight was organized for journalists in honor of City Day.
I woke up at 4 a.m. for this. The flight path was unknown — the balloon flew in the direction the wind was blowing.
We landed outside the city 50 minutes later.
I used to be amazed at how newspapers with only one or two reporters were created, until I found myself working for one myself.
In fact, in addition to the staff, there are always many freelancers, as at Moskovsky Komsomolets Chernozemie.
At a coffee shop on Profsoyuznaya Street in Moscow, I met 95-year-old World War II veteran and Hero of the USSR Sergei Kramarenko. The pilot fought alongside Ivan Kozhedub.
I wrote about the register of children's camps and the results of inspections of shopping centers in Moscow. I also read five-minute news segments on television.
The editorial assignment was to learn to dance. Everything was fine - my partner's feet weren't trampled.
The main thing here is the invisible dance of photographer Alexander Kozhokhin. A master will always find a favorable angle...
I analyzed Vladimir Putin's address to the Federal Assembly at the Manezh. I prepared commentary from political scientists for this purpose. I was also scheduled to speak on the same topic on TV.
I called the deputy commander of the cruiser Moskva to ask about how the sailors were celebrating their professional holiday. I wrote a note and then aired the same topic on the TV news (for the second time).
Live broadcasts from Vechernyaya Moskva are very unusual, and we, the correspondents, are drawn into this.
