it's waiting for me. the chinese friends made me a guitar out on the theme is this so i started playing the seven string guitar i played it quite well he played it well to some level that i started when i was about ten years old. he saw me in the park it was a sunny day she was too shy to approach me i saw him in the corner of my eye there was some sentimental song playing in my mind i'm trying to remember it now but i can't something sad for some reason maybe it's because i'm leaving the city for the whole summer and won't see him until lot of people was. drawing the picture making jam nobody expected it to in that way through a good. dozen

. there were no passenger trains so we walked to let a grat. we couldn't recognize. is that though tape was crisscrossed over

all the windows all the shop windows are blocked with sandbags one step down but they left some of the statues like the bronze horseman that is is that even that was also covered with sandbags will double. so we could recognize our own city in a day the whole city was locked down. this street seventy eight my last friend left leningrad. at least mom and dad are with me we're not going anywhere we will stay until the end. i know this war will be over soon they said on the radio that it won't be for long. we are a big and strong country. i know it will be over soon i will see him. he will be back and we will be happy. to read your school

love and the first bombs hit house number one hundred nine on next the prospect of those though and my dad's factory still like the germans wanted to bomb everything the most costly well way station and the train tracks leading to moscow. they were dropping bombs everywhere there were so many casualties when i heard about it i rushed to my dad's factory and met my geography teacher the head of the bed at home but he knew my dad well video they had served in the imperial army together he told me of your father's alive don't worry about him that's yet to get. told me there was no place to escape to so they just had to carry all those bombay exams had lost their legs or arms more to. be somewhere on the front now fighting the fascists he must be really close the germans are already in the outskirts of leningrad. and i haven't got

a single letter from him how was he is he wounded i still dream about. three of them when there was a fishmonger next to us on rubenstein street for word world war three take up several kinds of study trying to tear through the rubble with the sure pyramid server traveler crap were on display what are the words the shops were always full of goods the rule of only you knew from the moment that you one day mom went and saw that all the shelves were empty who you. think disappeared like that in a flash. but after that they started the food rationing. this is terrible were threatened with starvation we only have one hundred twenty five grams of bread but soon we'll only have bread crumbs a famine is coming

a real one. there hasn't been a single day that i felt full you leave the table still feeling as though you want to eat. mom asks me are you full i say of course i am. because i don't want to upset or. i don't think we can survive we will never eat properly again. at least we still have run mom makes flat bread from it it's not very filling but at least you feel as though you have something in your stomach for a little while at least. for the for the well dad brought us to rhonda that it's what's left over from making some flour oil spill they used it to feed it to cattle to run the it was very difficult to chew but mom tried to make it edible. jelly. she boiled it as much as she could tell it but even adding charcoal. it was

still tred full to eat but there was nothing else so that's what we had to do polish on walking along rubenstein street. we all have russian cards to build but given these bottles of syrup they called it was sort of like sweetened water with real cool would you well someone dropped the bottle you threw up out of the awful no it smashed i'm also to into the ground and shoo a woman i swear this happened i saw it with my own eyes. the people were crawling around trying to lick what they could off the ground with the words used to warm this is what the seeds did to people feel the ship of the.

media in november they bombed the day of ski warehouses the fire lasted for a few days it was awful the fire was huge the whole of leningrad could see it if it was the main storage place for all the food in the city. they bombed it so much that the entire storage facility was leveled to the ground zero good people were eating the earth because it had small traces of sugar in it i tried to eat it as well but i couldn't it was nothing else to eat so many people ate that dad brought home some glue were afraid at first but then mambo that and it turned into jelly we ate it with vinegar that's what saved us. i just want to cry cry and cry some more i have such a heavy heart i'm sick of everything. even of life.

starvation and famine everywhere and people keep dying sleds carry the dead through the streets from morning to night leningrad population has decreased dramatically almost two million people have already died. i visited our neighbor today her father died yesterday she was wrapped in a sheet and taken away in a sled. my only distraction now is my books. but we delivered books that the wards had quite often and i would read to the wounded soldiers. who did a little there's a bill once i went to one ward and said what should i read which they said anything but nothing about war yet he still but so i decided to read pushkin see if getting any get into them at that was a good he writes about a duel and that you are one of the soldiers said you promise to read nothing about

war but these two have just shot each other up well that was quite awkward. and the hospital today i wanted soldier told me that if you had died they would have told me by now. neither food nor letters can get through this siege just be sure to survive i will wait for you i have all your pictures my most treasured possessions. in the sky i did my first royal from a window with arctic air to me go and this is where the sphinx is going to be same . here in my sketch pad. we had to cover the sphinx as with wooden boards. to a sketch about that but then we had called the view from the article to me window.

today is my birthday today i thought folk dad brought two small frozen any ends and a hundred grams of raisins his whole ration. mom cooked noodles and mixed oil and bull down eons with. the noodles were lovely and grease. the ne and completely had the taste of grease the first course was jelly made from. mom brought home one hundred fifty grams of meat today what a pleasure it was to eat just a little meat i tried to make it last as long as i possibly could it was such bliss i just want to eat eat and eat but most importantly we are still all together and ana my mom dad and me. another spring in leningrad i used to love it and now i hate it so much it brings no love anymore only death.

starlit nights just look like a mass grave. another summer without you. for a whole year i haven't received a single letter from you. i know you cannot be alive anymore i will never be happy again. in the spring asylum. in april all the people of leningrad went out to clean the city streets we were expecting an epidemic because the dead were everywhere and there was a raw sewage flowing past houses because the sewage system was not working. so we told everybody to go out and clean up the city and everybody did. that even those who could barely hold a tool in their hands went out to break up the ice. leningrad

became so clean it was a real joy to see it. in may the trans started working again. i will never forget this day i can't believe dad is gone. news of his death was too sad and. even today this morning we talked about him thinking he was alive remembering different things about him. we were happy that he looked relatively well. it turned out though that by then he was already gone. i cannot believe he's gone it can't be how i wanted to be a mistake it's hard it's terrible we didn't even say goodbye. a few days ago i broke my mare into pieces i was waiting for

a disaster and my fears came true in the most horrible way. i cry all the time. there was nobody with it was buried in a mass grave. gentleman i guess you almost. got to see it even the few hundred a day come across it honestly i'm going to miss it faces i'm going to still go to the messages that we've got people coming in that are littered with criminals we've got people from it who knows where in the world this is the united states i'm very tough by the way you know sure i was worried that they may not know what they live

on mars you know mars. so we pick up things like rand. turbans prayer rugs so when we know they do they're coming from the middle east taking time chasing. concentration camp. we've got it as if the white house is not even want to disclose the fact that he's a stranger. live

. we speak your language of the law and out of the. news programs and documentaries and spanish what matters to you breaking news a little turn it into angles couldn't stories. or you hear. the choice at all to spanish find out more visit actuality on t.v.

dot com. my mom was very ill. one day your dad said we were not going to the bomb shelter. that night there was incredibly heavy bombing. it was a direct hit on that very shelter and everyone was buried underneath here nobody survived more than. a few people were too exhausted even to remove the rubble and it was so cold. the temperature was still certain degrees below zero. and it didn't get any better but if you read the mud the entire month of january february and march it was so cold thirty to forty degrees below should we could never even at the fire go out water would freeze

instantly. we took the sleds over to but couldn't prospect we put little buckets on to the sleds that there was a hole in the ice close to the riverbank. although sometimes we went there to get water. it was easy to lose the buckets when we climbed back up the embankment i.q. the water would splash over the rim of the buckets will be any pulling those sleds was very difficult because the ground was completely frozen yellow. but still we kept going and taking those two buckets back home that we dragged. water and use it to wash there was nowhere else to get it and. the bombing is not as bad as the starvation and. i'm sold then. starvation has caused mom stomach to swell she's in the hospital. i will not

see her again. the doctors say she won't survive. my dear mom i can't leave you i don't want to live without you i'm all alone. mommy. childless i spent new year's eve of nine hundred forty three alone it was very difficult. we had three separate apartments joined by a long corridor but all of them were empty because everyone had been evacuated so i was alone in the three apartments stairwell use it with all boards. as it was dark because we had no electricity. no electricity no water. there was no heat. and we had no firewood either yet wolf. the worst has happened

i am sick i can't stand up and i'm freezing they're breaking up wooden houses and leningrad outside it is thirty degrees below inside it's only minus ten. water freezes in doors every day go by tram to the demolished houses i just have the energy to carry a single small plank i'm not using the firewood just in case mom suddenly comes back. that elliott is issued you of course they let me see her in hospital yeah but i went expecting to see her round puffy face which for you. i just saw a skinny woman. my mama wish my dear mom that she looked so thin like there. i'm so happy i have recovered i've been back on my feet for two days when i saw myself and then there i was scared i saw

a completely unfamiliar golden skeletal face i now look at least thirty but that doesn't matter even if i do look like a skeleton the most important thing is i'm not sick. comrades people of letting grads this siege of leningrad has been broken by the heroic red army soldiers have built a railway across our liberated country devolved astray as the railway workers will be arriving today with the first train from the heartland. january seventeenth one thousand nine hundred forty three the focus all the day the siege finally ended when we heard the noise from our soldiers guns we were so happy . the scenes took millions of

lives. even now we know exactly how many. was when when the blockade was over people started sending in food from all over the country. i'm feeling better now i go to the alexander nevsky ministry to pick grass my make soup but it's a pity there are no nettles in leningrad they're quite tasty we have bread now the only thing that upsets me still is the bomb it's more frequent now. will we stay alive. i even want to play my guitar again i just wish the bombing of leningrad would stop. it on the chin i was really scared by the air raid sirens isn't it that they were lots of them but each of the anti aircraft guns fired planes were flying with them and there was

a lot who are all over the sea or it was terrifying and the syrians carried on and one after the other i have no idea how our soldiers and officers cope with all that . when the bombing is over a look to the sky i don't know if god does exist but i feel he is there so. they say he doesn't exist but if you do please let my love come back down here to. look why i spent most of the seats on the rooftops. bus one like nobody told us to do that. but they were always dropping fire bombs to go so we had no choice but to get out there to save our hosts fergus would go. mom says i'm crying in my sleep i said that i was scared of the bomb. i saw him in

a dream wounded and then dead i saw his pale face and his blue eyes looking at me his lips room white he's begging help me save me i'm waiting for him the genius cut short by a bomb. exploded will you go to the germans were shelling the city subways yes they knew the location of every tram stop but if i deal with so we had to move every single day and use the well that and a number of that'll do they were firing at the tram stops you with your people who are going to work when the attack started there was no way to escape it. that is different is that the showing was quite far from the buildings around casting the board and a sign. but that the view was no cover to hide under the. so there were plenty of casualties. they were firing at with thirty homes. trying to target crowded places. they did that quite

a long time. from leningrad today is the twenty seventh of january nineteen forty four our moment of triumph as. pray the blockade is over we won we have survived i want to cry to cry of joy. mama survive to i miss my dad so much my dear dad we are alive greeted is to feel like i think and. today there will be fireworks people are exhausted but they will still take to the streets my dear dear diary he's alive he's returned from the front he's lost weight i have not been this happy since before the war for the first time in my life i want to cry because i'm so happy. we will walk along the river spring will come to leningrad again. now i know that

why do you think you need to search for live on other planets why the truth is this such disregard on the spot one of the things i think sets a human mission to mars will accomplish is to make humans here on earth more

sensible about life about life on this planet about the planet itself about the environment as so one of the one of the key benefits for you wish to march will be a better earth. how do you operate dillon piggy i'm going to win was going to school it's such an expert state it isn't as easy as i'm not an olympic hockey player bomb which is on the plan we. eat by fire. london. street another one
