Привет! Меня зовут Виталий Шабанов. Я профессиональный спортсмен, участник и призёр многих международных соревнований, Чемпион России 2002 и 2005 годов. Лучшие свои полёты я совершил на парапланах фирмы Airwave, которые с радостью представляю вашему вниманию.
They all danced beautifully and the music was loud and clear and good, powerful.
Then I caught a glimpse of my reflection staring in at them -- boils and scars on my face, my ragged shirt.
I was like some jungle animal drawn to the light and looking in.
Why had I come? I felt sick.
But I kept watching.
The dance ended.
There was a pause.
Couples spoke easily to each other.
It was natural and civilized.
Where had they learned to converse and to dance? I couldn't converse or dance.
Everybody knew something I didn't know.
The girls looked so good, the boys so handsome.
I would be too terrified to even look at one of those girls, let alone be close to one.
To look into her eyes or dance with her would be beyond me.
