My grandmother lives in Russian village Malininskaya. Every summer I got used to spent my summer vocations at her place. It is the nicest place for me. My grandmother is kind old woman. Her name is Tamara. She was born in Russia during the Second World War in 1942. My granny get married after the war to the greatest man, whom she still loves so much. They have been married with my grandpa Aleksandr for about 40 years. They are wonderful people. Now they are pensioners both. All her life she worked hard and now, she is still very industrious and tender-hearted. She is very good at cooking and fond of knitting. A grandma has not travelled a lot in the course of her life, and says that it is a great loss. Also, she told me that she is fully satisfied with her life. I love her very much. There are no people dearer than your relatives.

Internet addiction is a serious problem. It shouldn't be ignored because it can lead to obesity, problems with falling asleep, depression, etc.

If a person feels addicted to the Internet, he/she should spend more time on valuable activities, such as eating healthily, reading, doing homework, physical activities. It is a good idea to find a hobby that isn't connected with the Internet. It can be doing sports or drawing, walking or hiking. It also helps to spend more time with family and friends discussing news, helping parents with household chores and having fun together. It is much better to make friends in person and hang out with them avoiding online communication.
