Update

Hello blog reading people!

I'm sure by now most of you have seen some sort of news forum and are aware of the current situation in Kyrgyzstan.  In a nut shell, it's pretty crazy over here.  I want to assure all of you that I am safe.  Peace Corps staff and the rest of the volunteers are safe.  Many people have been relocated to safe areas to wait out the storm, but Peace Corps' official position is that we will not be evacuated, and everyone will be back to work shortly.  For more information check out any news website.  There are also some pretty intense videos posted on YouTube, if that's your thing.  I'll let you know if anything worth mentioning comes up.  As of now, we are simply waiting to see how things will turn out.

That's all!

Fun fact of the day

The Russian language has it's own verb for eating a Snickers candy bar. Example: "Ya snickersnu" = "I eat a snickers candy bar".

Awesome.

On a sadder note, I've decided to end my service early. I will be registering for early termination sometime next week and coming home shortly after that. I just can't take this isolation anymore. Haha, just kidding! Isn't April Fool's Day fun?
