Today I woke up to blue skies. No more than an hour later, dark, gray gloomy clouds took reign over the skies and unveiled the first real snow that I have seen in Europe. 15 minutes later...blue skies. 30 minutes later...snow. This has been going on all day? Why are the Prague skies so bi-polar?
Lately life has been entertaining. We found a way to hook up a friend's playstation 2 to our TV, so we could watch movies now and then. We just watched Run Lola Run, which is an excellent German film. The girl from The Bourne Identity (Franka Potente) is in it, and she's fantastic. Go watch this film.
Haven't been going to as many pubs and clubs lately, because money is getting a little tight. Everybody in our program kind of went crazy the first month, and then realized all the traveling they were going to be doing, which led to people not going out as much. Makes sense, considering I'm going to be going to about 8 countries in the next two months.
Tonight at midnight I'm off to Germany for 5 days. My roommate Joe and I are leaving on a 3 hour bus ride to Dresden. We'll be there for a day, and then off to Berlin from Fri-Monday. We wanted to come back Sunday at midnight, but according to the lady at the student travel agency, there are no buses on Sundays. This meant that we had to miss our Czech film class on Monday and come back Monday at midnight. Not a big deal, but I'm a little worried about spending too much money in Germany because the Euro makes everything so expensive. So needless to say, I won't be blogging or anything, but I will be traveling and taking lots of awesome pictures!
Just bought the book Everything is Illuminated which was actually turned into a film a few years ago with Elijah Wood. I hear the book is great, but I guess I'll find out this coming weekend as I read it on my travels around German-land.
