I must admit, that even though I was anxiously awaiting the beginning of school... I am now convinced that taking all these classes is going to take its toll on me this semester. I have to wake up at 5am every morning, in order to be at school by 7am, so that I may find a parking spot. If it's 7:10 ... forget about parking! So that is what I am up to these days.... school. I don't really have the time or energy to do much else. I'm sure in a couple of weeks I'll get into the groove of things :)
So summer is over and all my friends who had gone to Hayasdan this summer are back! It's soooo wonderful to hear their stories and listen to all the changes that are taking place in Armenia.

Last weekend I was in Philadelphia at the East Coast AYF Olympics! It was so great to see all my friends from out there again. The weekend was full of exciting things to do, and even though I had been to Philly before, it was cool to go around with all my friends... and no offense, but philly cheesesteaks aren't "ALL THAT"!

So September 11 is nearing once more. It's very funny how you turn on the television and almost every channel has "dramatized" what happened a year ago in NY. It's veryyy "hollywood". But there is a lot going on to remember. Just some examples, there is a memorial being placed in front of the Glendale police department.... there's a Burger King which will be giving ALL proceeds from Sept. 11th sales to the Glendale Police and Fire Memorial fund... there are trees being planted in Hollywood--one for each person lost that day. One year ago, it was as if the entire country just PAUSED... no one left their homes because they were glued to their televisions watching for the latest news--or trying to understand what was happening. Some don't get it until today....

I'm off to school...
TSUH! :)
