So I'm with a russian family now. My host father says i don't talk much, probably because I don't. It's really hard to speak this language. I can get about half of what is simply spoken to me now, but still that doesn't quite seem enough alot of the time. I can say things in Russian now, and I can get my point across with only words if it's a simple question. That was interesting actually, A japaneese man asked me in russian why I chose to come to nizhney novgorod to study and not moscow and I was able to understand his russian and answer him. I was really proud of that. Good time. The food here is good, everything is natural. I think I'll end up eating rye bread, and drinking whole milk when i come back to the states. You never know. Everything is cool. There's also a niece that comes around frequently, the first three days she was here, and I think she spends the weekends here, it's a rather nice appartment. It's really cool being here, we go to Kazan this weekend. That'll be fun, I've been busy writing liturature papers and I need to start on my research project in earnest. Sorry i haven't updated consistantly.
talk to you all when i got more to say... laters
