The past few days have been what most people would call boring, but for me being an aspiring writer, I tucked myself into some good books and worked on inspiration. Although I have met with a few students, the past few days have been dedicated more to myself. Most of my students are either finishing up work for the end of the year as the summer draws near, or have been occupied with similar works, so I've had much of the days to myself. I have of course been working on writing my CV (European equivalent to a resume) and have decided that I'm much more exciting in person than in writing. I win people over with my personality, not my stats, so this has been a bit difficult for me.
That being said, I've gotten several ideas for both my own book I've been working on, as well as some ideas for a project I'm working on for a movie company in the US, so I've been doing lots of brainstorming and editing of thoughts. Although not terribly amusing for most people, I've had a good couple of days.
I've been advised that most of my students are leaving with Petr on Sunday for a chemistry conference and will be gone for a week. That pretty much leaves me alone in Moscow for a week with 3 students, 2 of which I see on an "as available" basis. I'm expecting it to be a slow week.
It has been growing in my mind recently to start writing a separate blog besides this one where I can talk about things that are more personal to me, and I've decided to take the leap. Since I had been thinking about doing a vlog as well, I think I may as well combine the two ideas, and so in the morning I'll begin filming to post on YouTube. It will be a project I suppose largely for myself, a diary of sorts, for all my scattered thoughts that owing to this blog's defined parameters it would be inappropriate to express here since my thoughts are for the most part ... well, not Russia-y.
If anyone cares to check it out, here's a link to the channel: McShiney. If you don't, it won't hurt my feelings though... like I said, mostly personal. =P I'm going to head to bed now though, because I have a fun day ahead trying to get a hold of Marina again .. today's attempt went better than yeseterday, but still not what I'm looking for. Wish me luck, and hope everyone had an awesome day today!
