Scope and content
"Due to war many unpleasant things happened. I am very worried about the fact that most of my classmates are abroad now and no one can say when will they come back. My close friends don't even chat with me as often, as they used to, and some of them even transferred to other schools. In this situation I am very afraid, that they may stay there for very long and I will not be able to see them again for a long time. The parents of my friend had acquaintances, who lived in Irpen and died, which made me even more worried about my friends. Moreover I often get scared due to explosions, and sometimes I can even hear them at night. As the result I have to sleep in the hallway at these moments, and it is terrible, because my back aches if i lie on the floor for a long time and I still remember, how I couldn't fall asleep because I didn't want to get scared of the airstrikes again. I didn't have to go to the basements a lot, but I remember how I went there and it was very crowded, dusty and there were even people, who stayed there all day long, some of them even were with babies and pets, because they were too afraid. I really hope and believe that this terror will end soon and life will get back to normal, and all people will understand the terror, caused by russian invasion to Ukraine."

Translation:
"Мене дуже хвилює, що більшість моїх однокласників зараз за кордоном і ніхто з них не може сказати, коли повернеться. Мої близькі друзі тепер навіть не спілкуються зі мною так часто, як раніше, а деякі навіть перевелися в інші школи.
Я дуже боюся, що вони можуть залишитися там надовго, тож я довго їх не побачу. У батьків мого друга були знайомі, які жили в Ірпені й загинули, через що я ще більше хвилююся за друзів.
Я часто боюся через вибухи, а іноді навіть чую їх уночі. У такому разі мені доводиться спати в коридорі, і це жахливо, тому що болить спина, якщо я довго лежу на підлозі. Досі пам’ятаю, як не могла заснути, бо не хотіла знову злякатися через авіаудари.
Мені не довелося багато разів спускатися у підвали, але я пам’ятаю, коли я туди спускалася, там було дуже брудно і багато людей. Були навіть люди, які сиділи там цілими днями, деякі навіть із немовлятами та домашніми тваринами, бо вони були страшенно налякані.
Я дуже сподіваюсь і вірю, що цей терор скоро закінчиться, життя повернеться в норму, і всі люди зрозуміють, що цей жах викликаний вторгненням Росії в Україну."

Edited English text:
"I’m very worried about the fact that most of my classmates are abroad now and none of them know when they will come back. My close friends don’t even chat with me as often as they used to, and some of them have transferred to other schools.
I’m really afraid that they will stay there for a long while and so I won’t be able to see them for a long time. My friend’s parents had friends who lived in Irpin and they died, which makes me even more afraid for my friends.
I often get scared because of the explosions, and sometimes I can even hear them at night. When that happens, I have to sleep in the hallway, and it’s terrible because my back hurts if I lie on the floor for a long time. I still remember how I couldn’t fall asleep because I didn’t want the airstrikes to freak me out again.
I didn’t end up going down to the basement much, but I remember how, when I did go, it was very crowded and dirty. There were even people who stayed there for days on end, some with babies and pets because the little ones were terrified.
I really hope and believe that this terror will end soon and life will go back to normal, and all people will understand that this horror was caused by russia’s invasion of Ukraine."
