Now that my personality project is done, I haven't really done anything class-related. Monday felt like a lazy Sunday and the only significant thing i did was watch a Czech movie at the theater. It was super cool because it took place during the Reinhard assassination in Prague. It was totally relevant to the course we are taking. I felt super proud of myself for knowing what was going on in the film. If it wasn't for this class, I wouldn't really understand what was going on in the movie, because it didn't explain it. It's such common knowledge in The Czech Republic that there's never a need to explain that event.
After the movie, Ashley, Ellisa and I went to an over-priced cafe and had desert. My chocolate cake was delicious and I was completely content with the evening even though the place was over-priced....untill the waiter come and basically told us how much tip we should leave him. I guess he thinks we don't know that waiters here get paid a salary and that its up to the customer to decided how much if any tip to leave. It really upset all of us and we did leave him a tip (not what he asked for) and decided we're not going there again.
I cooked today, and I was so impressed with myself cuz my food rocked. I'm not much of a cook but I'm trying to teach myself. Ima go home and keep forcing myself to cook. My mom isn't gana believe me when i tell her that I'm cooking.
Tomorrow we are finally going to Tarazin. I know its kinda weird but I've wanted to go to a concentration camp every since i found out about them. Its just such an unbelievable time period that I feel I can't really understand it till I see it. Physically being there can only deepen my understanding of what people went thought, much more than reading about it.
I also have to figure out exactly what I'm going to do for my final project for the Czech studies class. I think I'm gana do Old Town Square, its simple enough so i can focus on the content of the photos and forget about its relevance to the class. Because whats more relevant to Prague than Old Town?
