A long time ago one of my best friends underwent bullying from his classmates. I would see it everyday. Day by day it got worse, and I was getting worried. When I asked my friend about this though he just said that it was nothing to worry about. Of course I understood that he didn't want to worry me, but I still felt like I had to do something. Because it was agonizing to see strangers throw rocks at him or call him bad names. Since there was no clear sign of this getting better, I decided one day to stand up to his bullies. I tried to settle them down, and talk rationaly. In the end though we ended up fighting. I was happy that I stood up for my friend though. And afterwards, when we discussed the problem with the adults at our school, it eventually went away.
In this letter I'd like to tell you about Russian culture! First of all, do you know about the national foods in Russia? One of them is pirozhiki, which is a stuffed bun with a variety of fillings, such as potatos, mushrooms, cabbage, and so on. We also have a soup called borscht, or in other words, beetroot soup. Borscht can be either hot or cold, and is usually served with sour cream. Our fast food mostly consists of the food at Mcdonald's. Basically, American fast food chains comprise the fast food with we consume. The modern youth or teenagers these days prefer to rather eat untraditional food. This means American food, fast food, Chinese food, in other words, everything that isn't Russian.
