Oh, where does the time go...

We changed the clocks ahead today! I was vaguely aware that this was going to happen however I didn't realize it until I went to church an hour late. My cell phone here doesn't automatically change the time for me! Oh well.

My computer and I don't always get along lately. My current major issue is the battery. For some reason it is not able to find the AC adapter so it wont charge at all. IT is a brand new battery so I think this might have to do with the power conversion. It works fine when I have it plugged in however if the chord comes out at all the computer shuts down immediately. This has been happening since I have it plugged into an adapter and a surge protector leaving a lot of room for error! Any ideas out there how to fix this? Yes, I know I work for IT...

So lets see what I've been up to with pictures!

This is the "Dancin Building" for Patrick!




















On St. Patrick's day we went to an Irish Pub. I was disappointed but the lack of corn beef and cabbage however I ordered some sort of casserole and it was AMAZING. Probably one of the best meals that I've had in Prague. I will definitely be taking a trip back. The employees also had very fun Irish accents!








Some friends and I went to a fantastic jazz club one night. Clinton played there while he was president. This is a picture of my roommate and I at the club...we never both have our eyes open, oh well.






This is me with my apple strudel from Sustra Strudel. It was featured on Passport to Europe with Samantha Brown. People say that it is the worlds best strudel. The shop is just a window with one man working a bit outside the main city in what some call a "sketchy neighborhood" but its definitely worth the trip. The strudel was about the length of my forearm and cost less than about $2usd. I went alone for my first visit and brought some back for my suite mates (because I accidently ordered poppy and had to get 2, oops for not knowing Czech). We thought they were so amazing that we went back together 2 days later.












I went to the opera twice in one week! I usually love theatre but I don't think I that I'm going to rush back to another Czech opera any time soon.
It's difficult to enjoy with the uncomfortable seats, awkward viewing angle and lack of ability to understand Czech the Czech singing.









Yesterday I went to Dresden, Germany for the afternoon! I haven't been able to upload my pictures yet. Maybe I'll do that tomorrow!
