First off.. sorry I haven't logged in a while. Eventhough I'd have to say that i'm almost always "bored", seems like there's always stuff to do. I know that doesn't quite make sense, but let me explain... So most of my days are spent at home (boring), but towards the evening when the heat has calmed down and the weather allows me to leave the house without feeling uncomfortable I go out with my friends for ice cream or coffee. Then some days when I'm feeling well, I go to the supermarket and do some shopping for the house, but other than that there's really not much else I do these days.

Of course there's the infamous wedding next Saturday that my whole family has been running around for. My family decided to take a family vacation after the wedding... so we'll be going to Las Vegas for 5 days, and then I'll be accompanying my sister back to San Francisco for a couple of days. Hopefully I'll be feeling well enough to do all that. Coming to my health.... I'm feeling A LOT better than before (except for this nasty cold I managed to get in this heat), but starting Monday I'll stop taking my thyroid replacement pill, which will prepare me for my radiation treatment on July 30. So for a month, I'm going to be feeling as YUKKY as one can feel (worst case scenario). So once again, my room will be my dwelling.

I'd like to thank Nigol/Zabelle and Ara for taking SUCH good care of the CSUN group! I was so worried about how they'd be doing, but I know they are goooood hands! It was so much fun planning everything and I hope next year I'll be able to be with the next group who goes. During the past month, while I've been at home and in bed, I've had time to do A LOT of thinking. I feel like I've changed tremendously what I think I want to do in the future. First, I realized that teaching little kids is probably not for me anymore. I don't know if I have the patience to do that day in and day out... Second, I know that I want to continue on to graduate school. Third, I'd like that graduate school to be far away from home, hopefully somewhere where I can experience some sort of winter (in preparation for Armenia). Fourth, I thought about what I like to do and what i'd like to study... I researched about different fields...and I've come to the conclusion that I'd like to study International Relations! See, in choosing, I kinda thought, "...If I want to live in Armenia, I'd like to study something that would be of great use to Armenia when I'm there...teaching Armenian isn't really something I could do there..." so I decided on International Relations. I can't explain how happy I am with my decision and how much I look forward to reaching these new goals I've set for myself. I feel soooooooo improved, healthwise, that right now, I feel like I'm the "queen of the worldddddd!!!" and I could do anything!

Ok, I think I need a nap now.. phewwwwwwwwww... hahahaha, no just kidding!

TSUH!:)~
