See you in Hungary!

Difficult theoretical and practical tasks, excursions around Moscow, sport, sleepless nights and funny parties, broken leg and burnt finger - everything will turn into a history tomorrow. And it is time to figure up medals, last time to speak with foreign friends, to sit in the bus and produce in the memory the most exciting moments of these short days. Let’s remember together yesterday’s meetings. A lot of representatives from different countries came that day to take part in Closing Ceremony. Ambassador from Iran the whole week phoned to know the results of the Olympiad and finally decided to visit the main hall of MSU. Two representatives from Cuba and Korea also found time to hear the names of the winners! So this event was nervous not only for the students. Vice-Premier of Russian Federation Medvedev noticed the importance of such events, sat down on his chair, but could not sit long and came again to the microphone. “The most important is to participate and not to win, - he said. But then added. – I know some results…” Red faces of students, teddy-dog of Austrian guys against teddy-rabbit of the Netherlands team. New warm words that members of Organizing and Science Committee said. The fight is only on paper but not in the hearts. We all are the winners because

we have chosen chemistry. We lived together ten days: went in for sports, danced, laughed, travelled. First time we were sick and tired of Russian cuisine and traffic jams, we looked suspicious at the foreign students. But today we are one big family and the name of this family is science. Has everyone taken friend’s phone number?
