Funny story
I would name this story as "How my cousin and me fell down the bicycle" =)) We were about 10 years old each and it was in the village where our grandma lived. We went for a drive and my cousin was on the wheel of his bicycle and my place was on the trunk. So, he was showing off for his tricks, for example, he rode the bicycle without help of his hands or with his eyes closed and so on. There was a sharp bend in a rode and my cousin said he would be able to ride it on very high speed and by my surprise he did it! He was very pleasured with himself. It was completely beyond my comprehention and I said: "I can do the same! Now, you sit down on the trunk!" And i was on the wheel then. I built up speed till limit and the sharp bend was closer and closer and clrash!!! I couldn`t negotiate the change in direction and we fell down to the ditch, my cousin flew over my head and it was really painfully for both of us. You would ask me why this story is funny? The funniest thing in it is that when we remember this story in presence of somebody I tell everybody the whole truth except one. I tell that for the first time it was I who was on the wheel and how beautifully I could negotiate in direction. So, I tell the story not changing the point but changing my cousin`s and mine role in the story.

My first perfomance.
It happened when I was in the 5th grade at school. I had to sing a song in Kalmyk. I was afraid of a stage, it was awful for me to sing in front of the whole school, I was scared stiff :) So, I sang without any accompaniment. There was noise, everybody was laughing, talking and didn`t pay any attention to the stage. When I started sing everybody`s eyes were on me. So, I was getting nervous more and more. I wish them talking to each other, anything, but don`t stare at me open-mouthed. I couldn`t wait the end the song. But everything was fine and I had to sing each time on a holiday. It`s still so embarassing for me to sing in front of somebody. And I prefer to sing when I`m alone.
