learnt was to ask the right questions. John had a very good sense of humor. He

was very frank and honest. A year ago John decided I was ready to work alone.

I have my assistant George now and we work on culture issues. We prepare

reports about cultural events in London and the whole England. George is smart

and he learns fast. George and I work together with a cameraman Sean. Sean

is already 50 years old but he is very energetic and funny. He is also our driver.

His Mini Cooper drives fast indeed with loud music on. Mini Cooper is our office

as we travel a lot. We start our work at 8 in the morning and usually finish at 5

in the evening. George and Sean stay at work until 6 or 7 in the evening. I can’t

stay longer as I have to be at university. We sometimes work on weekends if

there are cultural events that can be interesting. I really like my team George

and Sean! They are great!

My boss is an Englishman Henry. He is very strict but diplomatic man. I hope

Today I woke up at quarter past 6, had a shower and at seven I called for a taxi.

It took me one hour to get to the airport. At eight I was at the airport, met

George and Sean. We had breakfast together. We didn’t have to check in. We

checked in online. We got through airport security quite quickly. They X-rayed

our hand luggage, checked our papers and soon we found our gates. On the

plane we all had a nap. Our flight was short. It was one hour and fifteen minutes.


The plane took off at quarter to ten and landed in Edinburgh at eleven. There is

no direct train line to the city center so we took a taxi to get to the city center.

6 PAMOKA. AT THE AIRPORT

Many people dislike flying. Sean and George are such. Airports and planes make

them stressed. I agree that jet lag and lost luggage can spoil your mood but in

general I like planes, airports and travelling. I check in on line if I have only

hand luggage. I check in at the airport if I need to check in my luggage. At the

airport I try to get through security as soon as possible. I find my gates and then


enjoy coffee or visit duty free shops. Of course when the plane is late it annoys

me. I try to have a book or magazine with me to spend time. When the flight is

cancelled it is bad. It is important to have travel insurance. In such cases

insurance covers your expenses. The most pleasant thing at the airport is to see

the sign boarding. It means you show your documents to the airport employees

and go to the plane. Taking off and landing are not always very nice but they

are short. On the plane you can read, sleep, listen to music and have some meal.

When you reach your destination, disembarking starts. It means you leave the

plane and begin your visit in another country or town. Sean and George were

very happy when the plane landed. I was happy to see them smile again!

some people like eating junk food. People who lead healthy life style eat

regularly. They start with breakfast and eat every two hours. They don’t eat

snacks. They don’t drink Coca Cola or other soft drinks. They drink fresh juice

and herbal teas. Such people use lots of vegetables and fruit. They buy

expensive fish, meat and better quality dairy products. People who don’t eat

meat are called vegetarians.

I am not a vegetarian. I like meat a lot. I always eat breakfast. I know it is

healthy. I never refuse junk food especially if I am in a hurry. On weekends I

try to cook. I prepare soup, salad and sometimes steaks. In most cases Franco

and I like to go out for dinner. Of course eating out is more expensive than

Countries that are on the sea shores can have much fish and sea food. No matter

how different countries are they use almost the same crockery and cutlery. They

are plates and soup bowls, forks, knives, spoons. Chinese and Japanese people

use chopsticks instead of forks and knives. People drink tea or coffee and they

use cups and mugs. If they drink coffee from a cup sometimes they use a saucer

and went out to jog. I met Franco and we both were jogging for about one hour.

Later I returned home, took a shower, changed and again went out for breakfast.

During our breakfast Franco and I decided to go shopping.

I don’t like shopping. I hate long queues at the check-out. It is usually difficult

to find a parking place. Shops are usually crowded, it’s always hot and you forget

what you want to buy.

Anyway Franco wanted to buy a new pair of shoes, a jacket and some T-shirt.

Franco is very fashionable and wants to look up to date. He wants to prepare for

spring season.

Shopping was successful. Franco was very lucky to get everything he wanted.

We bought some food for dinner and returned home. While shopping we met our

10 PAMOKA. MEDIA

I hope that you remember my profession. For those who don‘t remember it I‘ll

remind. I am a journalist. I work for BBC.

More often I start thinking about the use of television. It is a very powerful tool

to get information. It can change a person‘s life in one day, however watching

TV becomes a bit of waste of time.

You can find all current information on the internet. Internet is available

everywhere. It is enough to have a cell phone and you can contact the entire

world by pressing one button. You can use Youtube for watching short movies


about history, travelling, cooking, and medicine, whatever. You can even watch

movies as long as you send them to your computer by internet.

Modern television presents itself on the internet as well. All soap operas are

available on the internet. Sitting on the sofa and watching TV becomes luxury.

People don’t have much free time. They are busy at work. They try to spend

their free time outside or going in for sports, travelling or doing something. They

simply don’t find time for watching TV. I think that the main audience for

watching TV is retired people. They have more free time and can afford that.

To be honest I watch TV very rarely. I even do not switch it on as some

background. I better listen to music and have some rest from big amount of

information.
