to be continued

just had the longest two days of my life... will write more when i recover. durant and green baby!!!

song of the day

okay, so the song of the day is: "Each Coming Night" by Iron & Wine. I know, I know, its really soft. but it was featured in the Human Giant sketch (a show in which i encourage everyone to watch) where aziz pees on a bush and is sentenced to live 30 days as a bush (in a gilly suit) where he repeatedly gets peed on himself. i know, it sounds hilarious. the song is awesome seriously. probably going on the soundtrack to my life (closing credits?). if anyone has music suggestions or any other kind of suggestion related to anything please comment me. i know your wondering what exactly i am doing here, and this is your chance to find out what happens outside what i reveal in this blog. oh yeah, someone commented a while ago... pumpathump or something.. who is that? i feel like i should know. anyway. going to the ballet tomorrow. not voluntarily though. its required. i guess a little class in my life wouldnt hurt. oh and i have a rave - the salami here is so good its not even funny. so delicious. i almost want to put it in my corn flakes in the morning.

okay. if you work for dhl and you live in prague, you have to drive this thing. kind of like newman on seinfeld who dreams of getting the postal route in hawaii. riding around in this thing can be a little immasculating, though. walker texas ranger in dubbed in czech is on tv right now and i gotta say its pretty awesome. i took a video from the tower on top of the astronomical clock in old town square that i will try to upload on here but the internet speed is super slow. went on a tour of the old town hall, that was mildly interesting. mainly just a bunch of holes and old walls. interesting, but not worth taking pictures of - which everybody else did. is the nba draft today?? i had a nightmare the other night that we didnt take durant. dont screw this up sonics. by the way, the astronomical clock when it does its thing every hour is a little overrated. tons of people stand there like cattle to watch. i, however, was not impressed. so every morning me and my roommate nic try to get up early to catch the early tram to class, cause the first week we caught it (mainly because we were still jetlagged and getting up at the crack of dawn) there were unbelievably hot girls and now we cant seem to get up in time. today was to be our day, but i woke up late and everybody was still sleeping. maybe next week. going on a bike trip friday to southern bohemia. should be awesome. itll be good to get out of the city. feels a little cramped around here. the buildings are all so close together. feels like ive been here for a long time but i really havent. still have 7 weeks left. gotta go. its naptime.

here is the "Big Brother Banana." have no idea what it means. it was on the side of a garbage can. anyway, i really need a haircut and a shave. i look like hell. cell phone situation is a little complicated but going now to figure out. its been two days without a beer. it would sound so good right now...

half a chicken for breakfast

so this place is pretty rediculous. slept in a little late today and did not have time to get breakfast before our first class, so i waited til lunch to eat breakfast. i ignored my urges to eat at the bakery across the street, and ate authentic czech food at this other place. cheap. 90 crown got me a half a chicken with french fries. not doing that again. i was so sleepy by our next class started and i could feel myself dozing off towards the end. or maybe it was the lecture about Polish politics. maybe a combo effort there. its really a crazy thing to just sort of sit back and listen to the people around you. i did that the other night in a pub and i easily could be the only english speaking person present. strange feeling. still smitten with the ladies here. i realized in the other post that i may have said that american girls arent that great and thats not what i meant. i guess i am just so blown away by things here that ive forgotten what the states are like. its just different i guess. i just know they are amazing here. anyway. it seems that girls are all i talk about. ill branch out a little in future posts. if anyone can find the time, please comment me or email me, it will inspire me to keep up with the blogging.

settling in

so im settling in now. i officially slept in today. i didnt even have a beer yet today. yet. maybe later. i have to do some reading for school tonight, so maybe not. but i really feel like a nap. walked around a lot today. went to this park that overlooks the city. took a few pictures. it takes a while to upload them onto the blog since the internet connection is so slow. so kelly - this is the picture of the day. i kind of have my hand in it and you can see my reflection in the window, but the sign says it all. i also pervertedly took a picture of a couple girls, with the intention of trying to convince kelly that the girls here really are hotter than the states. this is just a sample. there are more. i will make you a believer. weather is nice today. it was so hot when we got here, but now its just nice. very seattle-esque summer. i havent gone to the atm (or bankomat in czech) in a couple days and i am really proud. it seemed that i was going almost everyday. the vacation feel has worn off a little bit. i havent bought any post cards but for all those who want one, please email me or comment me your address. the city is beautiful and so far this has been such an awesome experience. i anticipate more good times ahead. many more pilsners and hopefully, many more european girls. there really isnt anything better than a beautiful woman speaking a foreign language. english is so boring. why i didnt come here earlier in life i have no idea. so ive been seeing a lot of yellow labs lately. at first all i was seeing was these puny little rat dogs everywhere. i took a picture of one and will post soon. this one looked EXACTLY like Sasha. there are tons of dogs here, and its really making me want to get one when i get back. the last picture is of the view today at the park. i had the bottle of coke, which is more expensive than beer. i guess thats incentive to consume pivo. i noticed that on this blog it lists the time posted, but dont be confused. i am not up before 11 am. i am 9 hours ahead right now, so the days winding down. the sore throat turned into a cold, but i feel like its quickly passing. ive taken it easy over the past couple days, which has definately helped. plus the "potent" ibuprofen that they sell at the pharmacy behind the counter has been great. im getting a local phone number this week since i seem like a lame ass in the event that i try to get a girls number at a bar and i dont even have a phone. not going through that again. i am now quite fond of norwegian girls. they are like 90% pretty there. very good odds. anyway, i am just rambling on now. by the way, i will also mention songs that i am listening to at the moment (if anyone cares) . right now, its Elliott Smith's "Either Or" off the most recent album New Moon. probably my theme song for the summer. hope everyone had a glorious weekend. and mom - make sure you show grandma how to use the computer again. ciao.
