Eh, up to each person to choose if it's a commitment worth making.
I will probably not study there, but I think I will move there about a year or so after I complete my university degree (Enough time to work a year full time, and make some money).
Life in Armenia, with all its hassles, just seems to be more enjoyable.

I was thinking about doing my graduate studies in Armenia, but they are yet to provide me with a good incentive to go there vs. University of Liverpool.... they don't have decent programs (except maybe for the YerPhI).... the AUA doesn't even have any grad programs in philosophy........ and besides, going to Armenia is a big commitment, largely because of the economic level compared to more developed countries and your chances of being able to get out of Armenia and re-settle in USA or Canada if you wanted to one day are really low (unless you're a professional who has considerable wealth already)...
As for the survey, I knew about it a coupla months ago, tried to fill it out using my Mozilla browser, it wouldn't work cos it wouldn't let me choose options that were in the same column... and now I tried it with IE and it's giving me cookie headaches...
Oh well...

Housing prices in Yerevan are going up up uuuuuuuuuup. Many armenians from Russia, Syria, Lebanon, yevayln buying property, and a considerable amount are moving to Armenia (information received from aunt living in Armenia (a Hayreandartz), and online logs on cilicia.com).
So if you have the means to buy property now, DO IT! I wish I had the money.
Prices going up in Gyumri too. Although you can still buy a beautiful house (built especially on Czar Nikolai II's request) for 5-10 thousand dollars.Leave a comment:

By the way it says the survey is online until February 1, 2004, what's the point of that? Are we too late or something?Leave a comment:

Yea, I really hope for the day I can move back to Armenia, preferrably when I am done with my education and have established myself in the desired field, I will move back.
I hear that houses in Armenia are cheap for those of us here, and I know some family friends and even a few relatives who have bought homes in Armenia.Leave a comment:

Survey about armenian identity
I came upon this really cool poll online. It is only going to be open for a week or two more so i suggest that you go and fill it out now. it says it takes 20 minutes but it only took me 10. They are going to add up all the results and put them on the website and they say its a way of forging better ties and understanding between the diaspora and Armenia. go ahead.
