“- Dream. Whether it is big or small, it always remains a dream! There is a saying: Dreaming harmless. And it really is! Dream decorates our lives! It makes it more interesting! But many stop at what is - a dream. Some set out to go to it.
Sometimes a person is very close to her dreams. Oh! Sometimes you need to work hard! And at this moment, when the target is nearly achieved, you start your way to your dream.

And just now I can tell with confidence that when there are sisters, sisters even twins are in general very much very cool, very fine, always is to whom to talk with, whom to joke with, whom to play. To have in general a sister, and in my case of two sisters is very cool.”
