I’m back, for Now…

So I know. I totally suck at keeping up with this thing. I’ll give you guys a quick update of what’s going on with me. I am sitting in a Café in Tbilisi, a café which has become a sanctuary for me. I come here and drink REAL coffee, eat baguette sandwiches, and scour the internet. I almost feel as if I’m in a small café in Paris or something.

So I’ve managed to stay pretty busy. Last weekend, I came into Tbilisi for Tom G’s birthday. It was an event to say the least. A lot of the Teach and Learn Georgia people came out. It was a swarm of English-speaking Volunteers that invaded Old Town. Fun times were had, some people had too much fun. I’ll tell you what TLG kids get down, or fall down rather, and I’ll just leave it at that. lol. I also was able to try Texas Chicken (aka Church’s Chicken). They didn’t have biscuits, but I tore up a spicy breast and leg meal with mashed taters and jalapeno poppers. Amazing!

This weekend Batumi was the destination. I went out there to hang out with Aaron and Laura in Shuakhevi and record the song that me and Aaroni wrote. Jason, a TLG living is Shuakhevi, recorded our “hit” and hopefully I’ll be able to hear the final product soon. We’ll see if I post it or not. It’s ironic, I never did anything musically because I have a horrible case of stage fright and now I’m in the Republic of Georgia, and in a small way, concurring my fears. I recorded a freaking song?!?!

Next weekend, I’m headed to Kazbegi for Lauren’s birthday, so I’ll hopefully have something to say about that…

As far as what’s been going on at site, it same ol’ same ol’. I pretty much have my routine. I get up, go to school, do after school clubs, and then head home, eat, and watch a movie, or TV show, then sleep. Exciting, I know! I’m sure you’re on the edge of your seats, waiting to read what’s next. lol.
