I got admitted to "Russian for Beginners" at my University! Can't wait to get started and delve into this wonderful language! I know for sure that my skills will come to use during my forthcoming Russia / Uzbekistan trip!

See, Google failed me again. And my dictionary was elsewhere. According to Google "уже не" means "not anymore". Guess it was all wrong. Edit: checked with my dictionary; "Мне больше не надо ..." is obviously the way to go. Sounds odd...

Sounds odd... It's a common problem with electronic translators But "уже не" really means "not anymore". And sometimes meaning of the whole phrase in russian is heavily affected by punctuation. So.. pay attention. No It sounds normal. P.S. if you want to ask smth about russian grammar or whatever - you're welcome
