Дорогие косможители!
Летом
этого года я, в который раз, приехала в молодежный лагерь «Космос» для
проведения 10-дневного курса английского языка. Моими учениками стали студенты
различных факультетов Курского государственного университета. Ребята оказались
замечательными. Они не только смогли совмещать летние развлечения на морском
побережье с ежедневными занятиями, но и продемонстрировали недюжинные
способности в рисовании, актерской игре, сообразительности и креативности.
Думаю,
эти работы будут интересны всем, кто изучает английский язык или просто
интересуется им. Желаю вам приятного прочтения этих эссе, надеюсь, вам они
понравятся.
Муравьева Ирина, преподаватель английского
языка, г.Севастополь.

We were
inspired by “Kosmos”, so here are the poems we made here:
Very
long ways lead to the “Space”,
But
reaching this place
You
should just get the pace.
For
these 10 days
You
will get an idle face.
Look!
Your neighbor even lies in the sun with especial grace!
“”””
Here
salty wind refreshes our mind,
Here
the sea makes us so free
And
everyone feels
That
their life is complete!
“””””
So
the “Space” is the right place!
Firstly,
“Kosmos” is near the sea. Everybody likes the sea. We think of it when we sit
in our flats on cold winter days or run along wet autumn streets. The sea
brings us a new burst of life. It helps us to take things easy for a bit,
because nothing looks as great and essential as the sea. We can meet new people
here. We have already taken our mind off all worries and we are open for new
emotions and there are so many of them, indeed!
Anyway, we
come to the beach, immerse ourselves in the sea and the wavelength of our
feelings coincides with the waves, tenderly touching the sand. In the dazzling
sunshine we don’t even see the horizon, we don’t see where the sea ends and the
sky begins.
Thanks a lot,
“Kosmos”! We’ll come back!
Berdaliyeva Regina, Kurkova Svetlana.

We are
students of Kursk Crimea was a new
lease of life for us. And, what is more, our decision to join the English
program was our best bet, for sure!
Our summer
vacations at students’ camp “Kosmos” turned out to be very interesting from the
very first day. It was so fascinating that we immediately took our mind off all
worries!
During our
stay here, we made a lot of friends among the students from different Russian
cities. We had time on our hands, so we
could do our own thing. We participated in sports competitions, we went to
disco parties and concerts, we swam in the warm Black sea
and sunbathed. The sun was so scorching that we became as brown as a berry at
once! During our stay at “Kosmos” we visited such spectacular Crimean towns as
Bakhisaray, Balaklava , Yevpatoriya and climbed
the picturesque Ai-Petri mountain.
It was the best summer holiday we had ever had!

Before going
to the Crimea we felt worn out. Till our last
day at university we couldn’t take our mind off all worries and didn’t have
time on our hands to think of the upcoming vacations. We just wanted to get
away from everyday routine and immerse ourselves in peace and quiet. We thought
that at “Kosmos” we will be able to swim in the warm Black
Sea or lie on a beach in dazzling sunshine, reading slick fiction,
or going shopping in search of souvenirs, which cost an arm and a leg, or spend
time in local eateries.
But it was a
real surprise for us that at this place, which is a bit off the beaten track,
Russian students from different cities have such a wonderful holiday, filled
with various events and new experiences.
Today, on our
last day here, at “Kosmos”, we feel sad, because these amazing vacations end.
But at the same time, we have warm feelings and memories. We managed to get
away from it all and got a new lease of life here!
Lyubov Klochkova, Andrey Slaschev.

Every year, when summer comes, we look forward to
getting away from it all somewhere off the beaten track just to wind down and
take things easy for a bit. Everybody chooses their own way to relax. Students
of Kursk state university chose “Kosmos” which
is in the Crimea .
It was our best bet, in my opinion, to let our hair
down and do our own thing. “Kosmos’ is not just a youth camp, where you can
make friends and lie on a beach in dazzling sunshine. It’s a place where you
can learn a lot of new things and get a new lease of life. We had a scheduled
educational program in English. It was a real fun!
What is more, we went on excursions, took part in
sports events, went to concerts, disco parties, let alone, lying on the beach
and swimming in the warm sea. This summer we experienced scorching heat which
helped us become as brown as a berry – we’ll recollect all these things with
warь
heart!
But most of
allб
I appreciate people who we met here at “Kosmos” because human communication is
the most valuable thing ever!
Svetlana Zaytseva, Yekaterina Khromenkova

Unfortunately, I couldn’t be present at different places simultaneously, but I did my best to make it! I tried to enjoy every moment: dazzling sunshine, scorching heat, the cool sea, stinging jellyfish, white cunning seagulls, crazy drivers, 12-hour excursions, breathtaking views of the mountains, funicular railway, magnificent palaces, joyful waves, millions of photos, disco clubs, classic music concerts and English lessons and people will retain in my memory forever!
Though I missed my family and home, I know for sure that to say “good-bye” to “Kosmos” will be very hard. You know, rumors didn’t lie – “Kosmos” is really awesome!
Yulia Ivanova
I suppose the
title “Get away from it all to “‘Kosmos” doesn’t suit me As a matter of fact, I
have some problems. You see, I find it difficult to get acquainted with new
people. I’m not saying that I’m a shy or unsociable person. It’s just the
opposite! I’m considered to be the life and soul of the company; I make jokes
and make other people laugh. But this time, it wasn’t that easy! I convinced
myself that I had to make a good impression on other people to be respected.
But I realized that it was like this not so long ago. Recently I had a chance,
at least, to be spoken about. This fact gave my spirits a real boost. There was
also one more thing… It turned out that I couldn’t relax at all! Even when I
was having fun, a strange thought crossed my mind, for instance, that I could
run out of money or something like that… and the next moment I was run down.
Anyway, I got
to know a lot of people here at “Kosmos”, even though I realized this too late!
I can’t help mentioning Alexander, my roommate. We let our hair down together a
lot of times and it was a real fun. “Kosmos” is a unique place where I would
like to come again and again!
