**Goodbye: do svidaniya**
**Russia's National Anthem**

Россия - священная наша держава,

Россия - любимая наша страна.

Могучая воля, великая слава -

Твое достоянье на все времена!

Славься, Отечество наше свободное,

Братских народов союз вековой,

Предками данная мудрость народная!

Славься, страна! Мы гордимся тобой!

От южных морей до полярного края

Раскинулись наши леса и поля.

Одна ты на свете! Одна ты такая -

Хранимая Богом родная земля

Славься, Отечество наше свободное,

Братских народов союз вековой,

Предками данная мудрость народная!

Славься, страна! Мы гордимся тобой!

Широкий простор для мечты и для жизни

Грядущие нам открывают года.

Нам силу дает наша верность Отчизне.

Так было, так есть и так будет всегда!

Славься, Отечество наше свободное,

Братских народов союз вековой,

Предками данная мудрость народная!

Славься, страна! Мы гордимся тобой!

Russia's National Anthem translated in English

Russia - our sacred sovereignty,

Russia - our beloved land,

Mighty will, great glory -

Are yours for all time!

Be praised, our free Fatherland,

Union of ancient fraternal peoples,

By our forefathers was given the wisdom of the nation,

Be praised, our land! We are proud of you!

From the southern seas to the polar lands

Are spread our forests and fields.

You are unique in the world! Such is only you -

Our native land kept by God!

Be praised, our free Fatherland,

Union of ancient fraternal peoples,

By our forefathers was given the wisdom of the nation,

Be praised, our land! We are proud of you!

A wide expanse for dreams and for life

The coming years open up to us.

Our loyalty to the Fatherland gives us strength.

So it was, so it is, so it will be always!

Be praised, our free Fatherland,

Union of ancient fraternal peoples,

By our forefathers was given the wisdom of the nation,

Be praised, our land! We are proud of you!

How do the words of the anthem represent the culture, heritage and identity of your adopted country?
I think Russia's National Anthem is very strong in its faith and its country. It doesn't really relate to the russian culture but it still is a very strong anthem to its own country like many others, but i think Russia's is stronger in the lyrics. It is already so strong reading it i can't imagine a country together singing it with pride.

Imaginary Interview

1.At what age did u start playing rugby? 2.Who inspired you to play rugby? 3.What was your biggest injury you had by playing rugby? 4.Who was your childhood rugby star? 5.How many times do you train a week? <span style="color: #800080; font-family: 'Lucida Console',Monaco,monospace;">6.What do you eat before a rugby game? <span style="color: #800080; font-family: 'Lucida Console',Monaco,monospace;">7.What do you think is the most important thing to win a rugby game? <span style="color: #800080; font-family: 'Lucida Console',Monaco,monospace;">8.Do you like the Russian rugby team costumes? <span style="color: #800080; font-family: 'Lucida Console',Monaco,monospace;">9.What currency do you use in Russia? <span style="color: #800080; font-family: 'Lucida Console',Monaco,monospace;">10.What are the most popular traditional food in Russia?

<span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;">1.A close can be answered by a "yes" or a "no" or another type of short phrase. An open question is usually a long and descriptive answer. I can use an open question in my interview by asking a really straight forward question. Eg. Do you like rugby? <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;"> <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;">2.To be a good journalist you need to be incredibly confident and also you need to be good at writing and to think of good headlines aka titles. You also need to have a pen and paper in your bag/pocket etc you'll never know when an important event happens! <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;"> <span style="font-family: Georgia,serif;">3.It is important to have an understanding of how people around the world lives because it may be your family and friends, a celebrity etc that is in a massive disaster. It is not always the negative things it may be something like "In Washington DC has built a new skyscraper tower". Another reason is that a massive tsuinami maybe coming your way and you could have escaped if you were watching the news or if you were lucky or some type of invention invented in different countries. = <span style="font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;"> = =<span style="color: #800080; font-family: 'Lucida Console',Monaco,monospace;"> <span style="font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">  =
