The stupid university just stupid told us that there's going to be a supid fee for stupid talking to people on-stupid-line. Send emails from now on.
In other news, and in spite of this tragic turn of events, my faith in the Russian Idea has been reinforced. Yesterday I got a package (I've never been so excited to get index cards!) and a letter. I didn't have room in my bag, so I just stuck the letter inside the package and was going to carry it back to my квартира. I stopped at the peroskee stand for a вишни pick me up. I savored the delectible treat and then I got on marshroute #144. As the doors were closing I realized I had forgotten my gifts from afar at the stand!!! I still had to pay, so at the second stop, I got off, went under the road to get to the other side and flagged down auftobus #13 to take me back. As we pulled up the the университет stop, I tragically realized that it was no longer where I had left it at the stand. I ran up to the window and breathlessly pleaded "я забыл мое письмо" After staring blankly at me for a moment, Nina cried "Да! Я имею его." And with that she reached behind the counter to reveal my beloved package. I was so happy I almost got hit by a bus crossing the street again to board marshroute #3. I was in bliss even as I was pressed and shoved around the crowded bus for the 20 minuete ride home. Bless Nina.
