This week has been pretty hectic. In addition to our normal classes, the World Cup has been going on, which draws us to Old Town Square every night at 8:30. This is last years, but it looks about the same- everyone comes out! Trying to balance school, site seeing, and the 2 papers and a final I have in the next week has been, and is going to be, a challenge. I'm trying to get more "abroad" into my "study", but we'll see.
Today we spent the afternoon making glass bead jewelry! Laugh if you will, but it was better than kindergarten. We used authentic Czech Glass and strung together several different strands as we saw fit. I'm no artist, but I hope they came out alright. It was a lot of fun, if nothing else. A bunch of the girls got together and did it and we enjoyed cheering each other on and making color suggestions.
Tomorrow evening I leave for Barcelona!! About 7 of us decided that we wanted to use our last weekend to travel somewhere fun, so we looked online of the cheapest tickets and Barcelona was it, so off we go. I'm really looking forward to it, I've never been to Spain before! Check that into my passport stamp collection :)
On Sunday our program is going to Terezin, so next post will be about that to. Since I'm doing some of the research for my thesis I'll have to be bright eyed and bushy tailed, but I'll hopefully be heading back there with my family later in the trip too. I don't think they know that...but I kinda have to go to get all the research I need. We'll see how this weekend goes. Seguro viajes!
