My Family and Myself

I am Sergeev Anton. Anton is my first
name and Sergeev is my surname. I am 24 years old. I was born on April 8, 1978
in Vladimir. In June 1996 I finished the secondary school and wanted to enter
Vladimir State University but failed at the entrance exams. I had to work at
the plant as a worker. Then I served in the army in Siberia.

When I came back home I decided to
become an engineer. Last year I suc cessfully passed my entrance exams and
entered Vladimir State University.

I study at the correspondence
department. Now I am a first-year student of the university. I combine work and
study and I must say it is not easy but I try to do well at the university.

My family is rather large. There are
five persons in it. I have a wife, one child, a father, a mother and a sister.
Two years ago I got married. My wife's name is Nina. She is 22 years old. Last
year she graduated from the pedagogical university and now she works at school.
She teaches history.
