not me, but i'm getting there...



My students and I hosted a local talent night. Amazing what you will find when you give kids the opportunity to shine.

Couldn't think of a better group of people. I think it takes living far away from home to find family among a group of smelly, spastic, pesto-hungry randoms.

thank god it's february. something about january that always turns me inside out and gets me down. the days are getting longer, warmer, and the winter has taken a turn for spring... this could all be mental but i'm ok with that. all i know is that there are 8 months left of service and each days is getting warmer. picturing myself on the beach of lake issyk-kul, feeling the sun soak through my eyelids as i plan my trip to india. did i just spend the last two years of my life in kyrgyzstan?
