Columbus Day
.
On the second Monday in October American people celebrate Columbus Day.
As you know, Columbus was an Italian explorer who discovered the New
World in 1492. Three hundred years later they organized a ceremony in New
York City to remember the discovery. First they called the new holiday
Discovery Day and celebrated it with parades, banquets ['bæn kwit] and
dances. Later, in 1869, the holiday got a new name - Columbus Day. Not all
Americans like the idea of celebrating Columbus Day. For a lot of Native
Americans (Indians) the discovery of America by Europeans means the
beginning of a very sad period in their history.

Lena - the best friend of mine. We have been friends for a long time, since kindergarten, and almost never quarrel. We have a lot in common with Lena: we learn in the same class, we live in the same house, we have common interests. For example, we both love dancing and doing choreography, often discussing dance performances. Even to her, and I like the same music, and clothing tastes, we are very similar. We are always interested to one another, there are common threads of conversation. What is Lena I like the most? The fact that it is very responsive to the people, always ready to help, if you ask, or if she sees that you need help. For example, when I was on duty in the class one (as my neighbor's party got sick), Lena came in and began to help me. Together, we have coped with the cleaning quickly enough. I also like my friend-developed sense of humor. She knows how to make people laugh even when he has a bad mood. Lena - a loyal friend. She knows how to keep the word and keep secrets. These qualities, too, I really like. I even learn from his girlfriend some things - for example, do not take offense at trifles and honestly admit their mistake, if it was indeed. And Lena taught me beautifully plait braids in different ways. Me and my best friend often walk together, talk about what interests us. In school we also go together. Soon, my girlfriend is a birthday, and now I come up with, what kind of gift to give her. I would very much like to see our Lena lasted many, many years and will never end!
