Tired

I've been a bit tired lately. I'm looking forward to next week having off and hopefully getting some fresh air with the windows rolled down. I miss that. I'll write more later.

Spinning to Fitness

Last week I started a new beautiful thing that has been a lot of fun... I call it working out ;) Actually, maybe you remember me telling you that I won about 30 bucks in the raffle at a school dance to the local fitness club, and so I decided to try out a bit of what they got, since it's free and all.

So I looking into it and found this thing called spinning, which i for the longest time was something like twirling, but really it like riding on a stationary bike for an hour with an instructor at the front pushin you and it all to the rhythm of the music with the lights off with some neon stuff glowing, so it's pretty cool. I had a difficult time at first when i went to sign up cuz the little girl was one of those blabbety blabbers and it was tough to really get what she was saying, but when i came for my actual time of class, i was lucky cuz one of my students was working at the reception and then I went to the spinning room and you wouldn't believe it but my teacher was the girlfriend of one of my good friends, so that was helpful cuz i didn't know how to set up anything and it was just really helpful and i was lucky.

And I came again, yesterday for round two and it was pretty cool cuz i knew about half of the people in the class. Actually cuz they were my students, so that was fun, and even the teacher was also. It was a lot of fun and it's something that i look forward to enjoying more in the future.

Your Marsupial of Choice...

So, yesterday I was treated to something that I haven't experienced before. and it was really good actually.

Yep, you guessed it... kangaroo. Really quite interesting. Didn't really know it was some kind of delicacy here. Well... it's not really, just something that's tasty that some restaurant wants to charge a lot for. But anyways, it was cool and it was quite good. Just another kind of beef really, so it was satisfactory.

This is a picture of my dog and my roommate. Don't they look happy? This was just taken before Benji dumped on 'im. Well it was more of just a bit of seapage, but u get it i'm sure. It was happiness at it's best...

Findin Me Some Fitness

So, yesterday was my last senior dance of the year, and it was awe-inspiring. Well, it was nice, we'll just say that. Why was it so nice you might ask? Well the reason is because in the raffle, I won myself 30 buckaroos at the local fitness center where I have the option to either lift weights or attend a spinning class. What is a spinning class you might ask? No, it's not what I thought, which is like a twirling class, but it's a workout with a group and an instructor on stationary bikes. Wow, I'm lookin forward to attending my local fitness center which is comically named "Party Klub".

Lunch... put you in the mood

So, today was quite a fun little time. We went down to Prague to have lunch with one of our fellow good friends Mr. Kynes and he took us to a little nice place near his pad called (translated to be English-friendly) "The Itty Bitty Basement" :) It was a pretty cool pizza place. The pizza cheese seemed to stick to you mouth like Velveeta or something, but it was pretty tasty and a nice little fun moment.

But during our "horribly served" time there, we experienced a short power outage. THe pizza was cooked over a fire, so it wasn't a problem. But the place was almost pitch black, and no one came around to say anything to all of us. We just kinda sat there and enjoyed the peace and darkness. After about 5 minutes the horrible waitress came around with little baby candles (one for each table) and after this was accomplished, you could see the gleam shining into everyone's eyes and smiles. It was one of the most picturesque and heart-warming moments I've had here yet.

In this picture you see the fire stove and the tables to one room. We would be sitting at one of the front ones, fyi.
