Hi Justin!
It's great to have someone from New York City!
I recall on the MasterRussian.com site there was something you could download to help you with learning the Cyrillic alphabet. Have you looked there and done the lessons?
To help you with getting into the spirit of things and as it is close to the New Year, if you have not already seen the Russian movie "Irony of Fate" you MUST watch it! You know how we in the States have "It's a Wonderful Life".... well they watch "Irony of Fate" every year on New Year's Eve. It really is a cute and heartfelt film.
Here are some links to it WITH English subtitles.
"Irony of Fate", (Ирония судьбы, или С лёгким паром) 1975
(Romantic Comedy)
The Irony of Fate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
(This film is traditionally broadcast in Russia and some other former Soviet republics every New Year's Eve)
You can download this video (avi-file with English subtitles, DivX or XViD, 25 fps) from Russian Yandex-server. It's very easy.
How to download a movie:
1. Enter the following link:

Part 2: Яндекс.Народ
2. Enter the numbers placed in the window over the green button.
3. Press the green button "СКАЧАТЬ".

Notes: If you don't want to install Yandex Bar, please remove the sign from the control box (into the yellow background).
