Time flies so fast!! I’m almost done with my midterms - just one test left tomorrow. I hope that I’ve done a good job with my exams.

I registered for the summer 2007 intersession. There are actually two of them - one from the beginning of June to the beginning of July, and the other one from the middle of July to the middle of August. The plan was to register for four classes - two for each small intersession, but unfortunately, that is not possible. As a woman in the registrat explained to me, they don’t want students to take too many summer courses. I could’ve registered for one more class, but it would have come out too expensive, and I would have to go to college during the second intersession 3 times a week just for one class.

I’m looking forward to my 10-day spring break, which starts on April 1st. My good friend Tanya Shust is coming from Moscow to visit us in less than 2 weeks. It’s very exciting! I hope that we’ll be able to go somewhere together - Florida, or Vegas, or something of a sort. The problem is that with the whole apartment deal we’re really, really short on money, so we need to find something inexpensive. Danya and Eldar were looking for hotels in different places, but so far haven’t found anything to our liking.

We’re having a hard time with our current apartment management - I think that both Danya and I lost a lot of nerve cells yesterday and today. They basically want us to sign the lease for another year or to get out of the apartment by the end of this month. They say that they’ll give us some release paper if we sign the new lease, but this whole thing doesn’t sound too kosher. All the people we spoke with, including 3 lawyers and my law 1101 teacher in Baruch, advise us not to sign anything. I just hope that this will not cost us a fortune in the long run.
