It feels like Summer!
Its very warm here today in Volgograd.
We now have 2.5 weeks until we leave. Classes are going well, but we're starting to get new things we haven't covered so it's a lot more difficult. I can't believe how fast the weeks have been going by now that we have the classes and so many excursions.
Yesterday we went to the local art museum, and today we are going to a nearby town to go bowling with some Russian students we met. Tomorrow we are going to another university to meet students and I don't know what else. Friday we have our "kino" or movie class, and saturday we have a picnic with some nigerian students we met here, and a symphony orchestra concert. So we are definitely staying busy!!
One thing I have realized while we've been here is how tiring it is just to be translating non stop. By the end of the day I am completely exhausted mentally. I've been going to bed and falling asleep right away around 10:30pm. I didn't really think about it before the trip. I'm definitely going to warn the students that are coming here next year.
I apologize for being lazy and not posting pictures. I will try to post a whole bunch soon!!
Miss everyone, and America. I need fast food and english!
