Remember Me?
Yes, I know.. I have been a BIG TIME slacker (when it comes to blogging, that is). Ever since I came back from Armenia in January, I decided to take on a more "hectic" lifestyle. I'm currently working 3 jobs (because one wasn't enough?), and preparing to have my tonsils removed on Friday! Yup... there go more organs! hahahaha... The good news is that I will guiltlessly eat as much ice cream as I'd like and take a whole week off from the real world. :)
So many things going on in LA.... I'm sure I'll forget to mention a lot of it....
In music: There was an Alla Levonyan concert back in January... Hooshere was in LA just last month, and of course Gor continues to perform at different venues almost regularly.
In politics: There was a Turkish singer in town, who gave a huge performance (to which a lot of Armenians went to), and the AYF passed out flyers about Turkey's human rights violations. There is also a major ad campaign on Armenian TV and newspapers about boycotting Turkish products. Coming up, there will be a protest on March 24 at 11am in front of the Beverly Hills Hotel where the World Affairs Council will meet and the minister of national defense of Turkey will be....
I was also been busy with planning the Badanegan seminars which took place in February. Both sessions went really well and the over 180 kids who attended had a blast and learned a lot! Now I'll be focusing on the upcoming Youth Corps trip this summer. If anyone's interested... let me know!
I guess that's about all for right now... I've started planning my departure from Cali... I'm aiming to be outta here by May 5... wish me luck! Final stop.... Hayasdan (of course) :)
TSUH! :)~

I caught that tv spot about boycotting Turkish products this weekend too and I blogged about it! My take is... how about giving it a pro-Armenia spin rather than ONLY an anti-Turkey spin. People SHOULD buy more made in Armenia products.
