Czech Movies

      So I went to the movies last night with my roommate Rachel. Now Rachel is the kind of girl who is too loud and says very tourist-y things. She's super nice though. So we're going to see Moonrise Kingdom - really odd movie, but good - at this really sketch movie theatre. It was super nice on the inside though, so it was less scary. But I was the one who had to figure out how the hell to get us there and back, and the movie started at 11. At night. In a part of the city I don't know. So I was basically mentally unable to react to things normally.
     Anyway, so in the movie theatre we're waiting (there was another movie before ours). Finally the other movie ends, and every one comes out. AND ONE OF THE GUYS IN THE MOVIE THEATRE BRINGS OUT HIS IRISH WOLFHOUND. OUT OF THE THEATRE. GUYS, THE DOG SAW THE MOVIE TOO. Is it just me, or is that super bizarre? So I'm standing there in shock, and Rachel is basically screaming and drawing all sorts of attention to her as she's laughing and pointing at the dog.
     It was a good movie though.

Foreign Police

Okay, so I had to go see the foreign police today. Our appointment was for 9:30, so we left around 9. Well, we got there late, only by about 10 minutes, so it was okay. There was a long line anyway. The foreign police office is like the DMV. Only I don't speak their language. We finally got back to our apartment at 12:50 and we all crashed. Seriously, we took a 4 hour nap. Sweet.

Dobrý den from Praha - Prague

So sorry I haven't been updating these past few days. I know that Mandi is probably about to kill me. I've been super busy - getting used to my neighborhood and orientation and trying to learn Czech (IT'S SO HARD YOU GUYS, LIKE NO JOKE). Later I'll post pictures of my apartment and the few pictures I've taken so far - I know, I'm supposed to take a lot of them, but I don't want to look like a tourist, so I don't take pictures when I'm in large groups. I'm weird. Deal with it. But seriously, the apartment is gorgeous, and IT HAS A BALCONY. And I've made friends you guys. There's two of my roommates, Sevi (whose full name is Severina...like how cool is that?), and Rachel, who I get along with really well. And then there's 3 girls who live around the block: Dorothy, Karli and Bee. Bee is from Nigeria, so that's cool. I'm the youngest out of all of them...Karli is 23, Bee and Dorothy are 21 I think, and then Rachel and Severina are 20.

My school starts on Monday, so I'll try and keep you updated on that. Tomorrow I have to go see the Foreign Police - who only speak Czech despite working with foreigners all day - to register my visa or something so I can live in my apartment. It's weird, and I don't really get it. So yeah, that's about it...
