some personal info:


    Hi again!  Here's some information about myself:


    •   " Ya prostaya russkaya devchonka,
    •          za granitsey srodu ne byla....",  kak pela v svoyo
    •          vremya "Kombinatsia".  ;-)
    •  
    •     Born on March, 14, 1980 in Ukraine, I spent most
    •         of my life in Fokino, Primorskiy kray, Russia.
    •  
    •     In  1995  I  won a Freedom Support Act 
    •          scholarship to go on exchange program to the 
    •          US.   Had a great time in Texas...
    •  
    •     1998 -  started my studies in Smith College.
    •  
    •     I'm scared to death of spiders. ;-)
    •   
    •     I LOVE dancing (both ballroom and social) with 
    •         West Coast swing and salsa being my absolute 
    •         favourites.
    •   
    •     I've started learning Turkish this year due to 
    •         the efforts of my great Turkish friends - 
    •         Serkan and Gokhan.  Tesekkur ederim,  yokosikli
    •         erkekler! ;-)
    •  
    •     I am a possible  Economics, International 
    •        Relations and French Studies major  (haven't 
    •        quite figured out which one yet).
    •  
    •    My first year at Smith was pretty busy.  The 
    •        second one seems to be even busier.  Click here
    •        to take a look at my schedule for next semester.
    •  
    •     I really enjoy my life at Smith - "studencheskiye 
    •         gody...".   Check out some of the things I was 
    •         involved in last semester and during the summer.
    •  
    •     And of course, my life would never be the same
    •         without my friends - both in Russia and the US.
    •         Special attention should be given to the UMass
    •         people - you all are a big part of the reason 
    •         this semester was as much fun as it was.  ;-)
