So i know i havent post anything on here in a while, but i have been very busy. I have been here for 3 week and in school for 2. Many of you know how i get to school everyday but im going to say it here. I wake up at 5:30 and leave my house at 6:10. Its about a 5 minute walk to the bus stop, but the bus is usually 10 minutes late. So finally at 6:25 ish i get on the bus and stay on it for 40 minutes. Finally i leave the bus and get on the metro (subway) and it takes me about 10 minutes to get to my next stop. I finally get onto my tram which takes about 30 minutes to get to old town. In total, with all the waiting, it takes me 1 hour and a half to get to school. Im very tired every morning and it probably doesnt help that my iron level is very low too. 1 hour and a half is very long and that is if i dont mess up and do something wrong which happens quite a bit. One time i ended up on the opposite side of the city lost and missed a few blocks of school because i couldnt find my way back. Thats ok though, my school doesnt have me on any list and none of my teachers speak english so they dont care or dont remember i am in that class. I have made a few friends at school, mostly guys, because the girls are to scared to talk to me. They think there english is not good enough. Thats ok though! i just came back from a school trip to velke losiny. It is a very historical town that is a popular tourist destination because 1 they have a 400 year old paper factory, which is now a museum, 2 they have a nice castle and 3 they burnt a lot of witches there. We actually watched a movie about the witches and the next day i decided not to go the museum about it. Another thing we did was climb the highest mountain in Morvaia which was awful because i didnt have the right pair of shoes and now my light pink shoes are stained red because of blood. The trip wasnt to bad though. I became close with a lot of girls who i shared a room with and hung out with during the day. It was actually just like a rotary event. None of us went to bed until 4am and then we were up at 7 the next day. Im very tired and regret staying up that late because i have an actual rotary event next week. Im very excited for this rotary event though, i get to meet all the other exchange students and i have only met 3 so far. One day i went out for lunch with Emma ( from Canada ) and also we went around Prague. I think on Wednesday we are hanging out again and going to make a cute sign and have a mini photo shoot. Another day I hung out with Mechi ( from Argentina) and we went shopping for some new clothes and also walked around Prague. We got kinda lost and let me tell you going in the direction of an old monument doesnt work all the time. But i finally got to try one of those donuts ice cream thing (picture above) and it was good. I dont like a lot of the food here which kind of sucks. My host families food is ok but czech food is awful in my opinion. Like the week of my school trip i only ate an apple everyday and on the last day i had icecream. So everything is ok right now. I really miss tim hortons, but tomorrow i go to germany for the second time so maybe they will have something that i really like.
