I realised that some people read this blog and are interested on how they too can study and enjoy this beautiful city (like Stephen). I am studying through a program called ECES (via the academic school AIFS). There are hundreds of us, mostly from America but also all over the world. There are a ton of classes to take and no matter what your major may be it is easy to get classes to count for something. My roommate is a biology major, my suite mate is a music education major and I am studying international economics, so there are many options. This city is very easy to navigate and the trams and metro go everywhere you need to go. The Czech people are admittadly rude and for the most part hate foreigners, but you kind of get used to it and just try to blend in. Mostly, I try to be completely reasy to order when asked and I speak clearly so they don't get angry, cause they can be impatient too. However, I don't want to knock on them that much, because the culture is this way because of its history.
Today I walked from my dorm to school
via the Prague Castle. It turns out that this is really the wuickest way down the hill, its like a fairy tale, I get to walk through one of the largest castle in Europe on my way to school everyday!
Last night we went out to a hooka bar and it was a blast...these are my homeboys and girls...devetecet.
