Looking back to the first trimester
The first thing that goes into mind is that all of us are biting nails in anticipation of holidays. We have reached the point when our main concern is to step our efforts up and to go down that road until the very end. It is just a situation when the end justifies the means. Nevertheless it would be honest to say that we are definitely stressed out. Frankly speaking, sometimes I was inundated and didn`t manage to accomplish my tasks on time, and I wanted just to bury my head in the sand and to have a rest. So let`s just make a brief summary of our achievements during the first trimester to bounce back our moral.
As for me, I`ve put some goals to achieve in the beginning of my studying. I desired to improve my degree of spoken and written language, to learn how to organize my train of thoughts into an ordered story, to put my mistakes right and of course, to expand my vocabulary.
More or less, I sorted these problems out. Moreover, I have done it in a fruitful collaboration with my groupmates and our lecturer. The insight into having a common goal fostered our team spirit and motivated mutual help and support.
To summarize, the results of the first trimester are fulfilling. As for me, I have learnt a lot of useful collocations, proverbs, idioms. Out of sight, out of mind? It`s absolutely not about our Vocabulary lessons!

The 10th Kingdom in a close proximity: fantasy or reality
When I was asked, why I had mounted this company, I answered: “Because sometimes it is necessary to tip the balance: to neglect lucrative business and to prioritize moral values. Our common goal is to joint fairytale with real life, we definitely go down that road!
We bail different magic creatures out and back them in their professional activity. At “The 10th Kingdom” you may find any creature you want starting with Tooth Fairy and ending with different monsters free of charge. It`s sad but true that some time ago magic creatures had to shelter themselves in order to wriggle out of persecution. We broke this deadlock and sort the problem out in an easy way. We pool magic creatures and guarantee them the whole benefits package in return to work in our company. It is a place where they feel really at home. This has mutual benefits and gives people the insight into fragile and charming world as well as a feeling of contentment and safety to our wards.
Our company is non-commercial, we got no dividends, and our budget is replenished only by charity funds and subsidies. Despite this fact there are a lot of perks for our employees. They include:
-         Relocation allowance;
-         Performance-related bonus scheme;
-         Company pension scheme;
-         Entitlement to maternity/paternity leave;
-         Travelling expenses;
-         Comprehensive healthcare provision;
-         Subsidized canteen.
We value our wards, our managers, secretaries and receptionists. If you are interested in collaboration built on mutual trust and respect – our company is an ideal place for you!
