Vacation errrr I mean Conference to Issyk-Kul

Hey guys sorry again for the long absence. This past week I was in Issyk-Kul for a HIV/AIDS and Life Skills conference. It was a really productive conference and it was nice to get away from Osh for a while. I think my counterpart Guljan (the person I work with on a daily basis) got a lot out of it and we hope to implement our ideas very soon. My work is going well, I finally have a set work schedule. I rotate subjects (english, health, and sports) and teach two groups everyday. Its pretty easy and I wanted to work more but thats all that my orphanage needs me for, so now I am looking around for some secondary work. Our In-service Training (IST) is coming up soon and I'm pretty excited about that. Not because of the training part but because I will get to see all of my friends together again. It has been almost four months since we finished training and this will be the first time that we have been all together since our swearing in. Anyways this is just a brief check in and I'm still looking for some fast internet so I can post some pics :-)
-Peace
