The First Week Back:

Its been a pretty busy week back. The internet was down on Monday, as you well know, so I just spent the time reviewing through my audio lessons and looking over the notes I took during my tutoring session. Tuesday everything was up and running so I checked out
my Russian websites since I was disconnected from the internet since last Friday. Sadly Spoonfed Russian is still not updating as Nadia, its author, is focusing more on her own studies, thats alright though, there are plenty of lessons that I haven't even looked at yet. Sadly, I spent the whole day reviewing and completely forgot that I was supposed to present on the Tuesday, I don't even know how, after doing it every week for the entire semester. Anyway, Wednesday I spent feeling bad and working extra hard. I spent lots of the time researching Russian cuisine and restaurants in Russia. It turns out that the only good Russian restaurants serve foreign food. All the forums I've read said you can either get cheap, awful, native food or expensive, good foreign food. Thats a little disappointing, seeing as how I wanted to make Russian food for my final. I think I can do it. The Forums said that Russians bury the taste of their awful food in vodka but i figure if I just make the Russian food well we won't have to do that. Thursday and I was back to the Ipod lessons, alot of the ones I listened to upodated over the break so I downloaded those and listened to them. I might have to be a little more selective in the future though, my Ipod is rapidly filling up. Today, I tried to think of a lesson to do with David but its pretty hard to think of a lesson he can do on the go.
