My Family
Let me introduce myself. My name is Vladimir Ivanov. I was born in Yekaterinburg
in the family of lawyers. My family is the most precious thing for me,
because this is where I find love and understanding, and support.
Our family is quite large. It consists of four people — my parents, my younger
sister and me. My mother is an in-house lawyer at a big enterprise. My father is
a judge. He works at court. My sister is a schoolgirl.
After school I decided to follow my family tradition and chose the profession
of a lawyer. I am a first-year student of the Ural State Law University. I study
at the Institute of Justice. My dream is to become an investigator.
During the week I am very busy getting ready for lectures and seminars, so
I like to have a rest on weekends. I like our late dinners with my family, when
we all gather round the table. We talk, and joke, and have fun, because we are
all friends. We share our problems and secrets with each other, and my parents
often give my sister and me good advice.
In summer we go to our “dacha”. In fact, it’s just a small cottage on a small
plot of land, but we like it a lot, and like to work in the garden, planting, digging,
gathering strawberries and tomatoes.
I do sports. Tastes differ, and different people do jogging, swimming, diving…
But I adore playing tennis. My sister is also a tennis player. On Sundays we go
to play tennis together. Sport helps people to become strong. It helps us to be
more organized and better disciplined in our daily activity.
I am happy to have a loving and supportive family, and I hope that my own
family will work on the same lines.
