personal details
I spent my last holidays at my aunt’s place. Her name is Mary Brown and her maiden name is Nowak. She comes from Poland but she has been living in England for 15 years. She got married to a British police officer John Brown. She works as a nurse, but it’s only a temporary occupation because she wants to be a doctor. It should be possible in two years time when she has completed full medical education.

age – wiek
Although I’m seventeen years old I don’t look my age. I hate being told what I should or have to do, so in my opinion adolescence is not the best time of life. Even being a toddler is better than an underage teenager. To my mind the best period of life is when you are a grown-up and you can decide for yourself.
