Babushki on Parade: июля 2005
http://slabchunk.blogspot.com/2005_07_01_archive.html
I used to be an English teacher in Uzbekistan. Now I'm in Kazakhstan. Hooray. Суббота, июля 30, 2005. Oh, ESI training. How do I know I'm at ESI training again? Hillary, Alana's teamate, is solid as well. Add the alum (Peg, Andrea, Myself, Noah and Jon) to the aforementioned, and you get TEAM KARGANDA. It's big. And we'll have two friends (Jamie and Faye) in Timertau, under an hour away. This morning (with all the morocco and CIS dudes) with Russ's help. The boys were remarkably open, which bodes wel...

I used to be an English teacher in Uzbekistan. Now I'm in Kazakhstan. Hooray. Понедельник, января 30, 2006. I'm engaged. It's cool. I like it. It happened like this:. Nope I asked Alana to marry me in Carla and Tracy's kitchen, right after breakfast Saturday. She was suprised and said yes. That's really all there is to it. Posted by nach at 8:07 ПП. Links to this post. Понедельник, января 23, 2006. Oh yeah, congratualtions Brady and Erin! The race is really on now. August 5th, huh? Links to this post.

I used to be an English teacher in Uzbekistan. Now I'm in Kazakhstan. Hooray. Среда, июня 29, 2005. It looks like ESI will NOT be sending any teachers to Uzbekistan this fall. which seriously sucks. However, Kazakhstan, U-stan's neighbor to the north, is very likely my (and Alana's) assignment for the coming school year. Jon will probably come too. Posted by nach at 9:28 ПП. Links to this post. Вторник, июня 28, 2005. Other sights of note:. Boston Common (complete with lesbian swans in the pond). Also, i...

I used to be an English teacher in Uzbekistan. Now I'm in Kazakhstan. Hooray. Воскресенье, мая 29, 2005. I am in the land of the free. where I am free to pay $2 an hour for internet service and the freakin' Comfort Inn. It's also hard to be in an English speaking country again. I'm fighting the urge to order in russian or uzbek for lunch. I can understand conversations around me. I can understand the TV and radio and billboards and roadsigns and everything! I'm a freakin' genius! Posted by nach at 3:45 ПП.

Include SBTC (Small Business Training Center) on any mail you send me! Just my name. This makes it easier and faster to get from customs. That is all. I have yet to make it through an entire service at the local orthodox church it’s one of my goals this year. Today is for Alana and I and planning lessons. And part littl...

I used to be an English teacher in Uzbekistan. Now I'm in Kazakhstan. Hooray. Среда, августа 31, 2005. Checkin' if your church was made with hands. Pray for our friends in Vietnem, who are no longer able to meet with Family to talk and learn about their Father like they used to. Check out some photos, the link is over there - - -. Assuming they upload, that is. Wait, there's more. Those clothes are washing as I type. I'm still nervous about hanging them on a line five stories up on the outside. Not reall...

I used to be an English teacher in Uzbekistan. Now I'm in Kazakhstan. Hooray. Пятница, сентября 30, 2005. So yeah, update. All of a sudden, it's a week later. I did music in class this week- fun, except I think they were expecting more Brittney Spears and 50 Cent than they got. which was none. Instead, I decided it was important they understant Elvis and Dylan. And sing along with "A Little Less Conversation". I'm going to preach a sermon on that song someday. Good stuff.

I used to be an English teacher in Uzbekistan. Now I'm in Kazakhstan. Hooray. Суббота, декабря 31, 2005. Was in Astana again yesterday to try and get Kyrgyz visas- no dice. Did see some nice ice sculptures Hillary says Astana is Disneyland on steriods. You can watch 400 million barrels of oil worth being spent in a few square km. I made a cookie that looks like a scotsman. Tonight is New Years con familia Ramsey. Posted by nach at 4:26 ПП. Links to this post. Четверг, декабря 22, 2005. You also get to lo...

I used to be an English teacher in Uzbekistan. Now I'm in Kazakhstan. Hooray. Понедельник, ноября 28, 2005. We had the place to ourselves, it being winter and mid-week. There’s a small man-made lake (frozen very solid, maybe 80 acres) set in some little hills with cool rock formations. The rocks reminded me of the one time I was in the Rockies, only much, much smaller. We had sun and above freezing temperatures for a few days and a day or two of snow. Posted by nach at 11:50 ПП.
