Translation of ojiva

I learned Russian during 8 years in highschool, but since I left school 6 years ago, I have forgotten most of it and did not have opportunity to speak or practice in any way. That's why I am on Vocabulix.
I remember once again how I failed as a student, mainly in French class. Since I have lived in Russia, it was not easy to learn other foreign languages. The alphabet is also different.
My morning was great. How was your weekend? In order to learn the language to a high level I figure you need two or three years. I was in Malaga last summer for a few days and studied a lot.
