Another Monday.... just 6 more weeks of school left and I will be DONE.... D-O-N-E... finished... verchatsadz.. (i think you get it). So my life for the past 2 weeks has been quite dull. I've mostly been in bed reading textbooks, watching the horrible TV programming that Arsineh was just talking about, or surfing the net (lots of useless info has crammed up my brain). Yes, I had the pleasure of having tonsilitis. Lovely... just lovely. The amount of pain it caused didn't quite matter as much as the fact that I DID NOT TALK for an entire 2 weeks. This had not happened since I was 15 months old.... so you can imagine how happy my family was! haha! But I feel much better now, and I'm starting to realize that maybe I am going to work on creating a bubble around me so that I don't get all these germs that kids keep passing on to me like candy. So that was that...

During this whole time when I wasn't able to speak, I was also trying to put my Fulbright application in order. Yes, I'm applying for a Fulbright scholarship to research in Armenia for 10 months. Let's see what happens. With being sick, and my advisor wanting my application package 10 days earlier than expected, I think I did a pretty good job of putting something together. I mean, if I get it.. I get it.... if not.... we'll just move right along to other possibilities.

There's really not much else going on except for midterms (ahhhh, very sad that these will be my last mid terms of my undergrad career...NOT). I'm excited that in November all of my cousins are flying in to San Francisco so we can go to my sister's senior recital at the conservatory. It's a big deal for her, all these people are coming from all over just to hear her perform. She's even doing a few Armenian pieces! This weekend my cousin celebrated her birthday with a bunch of friends at this club downtown called "The Mayan". The entire place has a Mayan theme, so that was very interesting. The main club area plays salsa, and there's a hip-hop room and I didn't quite figure out what the other room was, but there were some other options to salsa. The evening was great, but I couldn't help wondering what a HUGE club with an Armenian theme would be like..right here in L.A. (Hmmmm...somebody should steal my idea and do it!)

I watched the ARARAT trailer, and I'm planning to be one of the MANY MANY people who bombard the theatres the weekend of Nov. 15 to see it... maybe even see it twice or three times. From what I saw..... well..... I'll just write about it after I see the entire thing. But now the logs of others who have already seen it started to make a lot more sense to me.

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