This Sunday is International Women's Day. It's actually a very big deal here. We got a day off school on Monday, even, so I'm going to spend a night in Moscow with a few people. I'm not even sure what we're doing, but I do know I want to visit the big cemetery where famous people are buried. I think it's Novodevichy Cemetery. Eisenstein, Chekhov, Bulgakov, Gogol, Krushchev, Prokofiev... the list goes on. 

And on Friday our planned excursion as a group is a day-trip to a nearby town called Suzdal. 

Send me a package/letter! I suddenly realized today how badly I want them. Shipping is expensive, so only if you can. But if you can and want to, please do! Here's the address:
