who knew

I too am a TERRIBLE speller. And even worse at grammar yet now its my job to not suck at those things. ha! It will be an interesting year for me. 

People have been lovely and hospitable and had us over to their homes for feasts.... i've spent two weeks eatting and my pants are already tight...fried, sweets, whole milk, various forms of bread, beer, chocolate.... 

lydia is a disaster!  She falls, trips, gets hurt, breaks things, has to redo things, gets lost, tye dyes clothes, the list continues... its amazing. We just keep saying "Fail" and laughing hysterically. I love it. 

Fishnet contracted with an Elementary school for the first time this year and they are letting me work there! So mon-thur i will be there for two of their classes and I am so excited. Ive already started a one on one class with woman and i think its going good. I have to get the rest of my sched next week.... it should be community classes and teaching at businesses. 24 hours of class total.  But it takes me so long to plan plus teach myself freakin grammar things that its at least 40 hours. 

oh annnnd - my boss is wanting to start making enligh teaching videos that are more fun and funny then the ones out there and has created a green screen room at the school. On my first real day of work he asked us to help him with a practice shoot to check lighting and such...Yet .we ended up having to get in wardrobe (flight attendants!) and be in a few scenes about airport security and the body.  DId i mention about his black face character? He's called Jon Bourno. He paints himself black with a fro.... this is the character he wants to use to teach for the videos. ha!  One of his music videos has this character....You tube.... kuličky štěstí and the song called Stydlivý.  Not a normal first day of work, but really fun! 

Younglife and the YMCA are here and pair with Fishnet to make lots of community activities so i am going to go check out if there is anything i want to get involved in with them. 

annnd Im leaving today for Prague!  woot woot.  

sidenote - Mullets are big here. And two toned hair. Top one color, bottom another. Bascially every hairdo is just terrible and oh and tragic. People rewear their clothes all the time and nothing matches. Its like 1992 here with the clothes and the music they play in public. 

thats all

Great updates! Sounds like you're really getting in to things over there. And enjoy your first trip to Prague. I'm way to busy to think of traveling just yet myself!
