stale bread, nutella, and ham

ive been requested by my brother to blog more. seems i dont write enough. im actually more confident that he wants me keep up w my travels and stories more regularly since he has that much free time at work. correct me if im wrong brother dear? haha but ill try not to get too deep and just blog bout my days. so yah. im sitting on a sunday eating stale bread. nutella. and ham. deadly combination

last weekend. south bohemia. rich in czech history. i thought it be all like voodoo bohemiahemia-ish but really its like..the south. haha just like..kinda plain and parallel to hickish people from the states. they are very old school. bus ride there was terrible. for reason, i still cant sleep here in prague. maybe its bc i sleep too late (sorry mom). or maybe bc the sun still rises at 4 fricking am. or maybe bc the birds rise when the sun rises. i dunno. it takes me 45min-1hr to fall asleep. and trust me..ive thought about everything in life. gone thro this and that dream. counted sheep. i think i counted hamsters the other night. like the really fat cute ones. no dice. pray for good rest.

right..we saw a castle 1st day. couldnt take pics so that was super lame. castles are amazing. so cool to see all the rooms and like what they were used for and stuff. and like not just living rooms and dining rooms but like really bizarre small things like..changing room. or waiting room. or serving room. thats why theyre so big. they got rooms for everything. when im king, id have a "thinking" room. it just have a huge pillow. and maybe some fruit snacks. but yah. super cool designs. too bad i couldnt take pics. i did however sneak some pics of the armory and weapons. that stuff was legit. straight deadly force..killing..people.

then we went on a boat ride. it was stupid. really stupid. best part of the trip was dinner saturday night. it was free first of yall (thanks ciber). but the meal was excellent. 1st time having deer and wild boar. dessert was excellent. yum. then we slept at like some old communist dorm block. i felt like i was in prison.

next day. graphite mine tour! super coool bc of the super cool outfits. haha tour was a little interesting. B-. then we rafted down a river in a small town. it was super awesome. like just straight chilling on a raft. catching some sun. catching some branches. catching some rapids. catching some beer and burger on the way. super awesome. pants got soaked tho. soaked the rest of the day. felt like i wet myself like on repeat. its a nasty feeling.

then another castle. i totally snuck pics bc i couldnt bare the "no photos of awesome castles" rule. its ok. i didnt use flash so everything is still preserved. =). no worries.

came home. world cup action usa vs england. good game. i feel like we could have played better. good for timmy howard to step up and do his thing. gold star for him. not sure what to think of englands goalkeep. i feel bad..but...i dont...in a way. but playing goalie the last couple of years, i can somewhat sympathize. the position is the last line. a lot of pressure at times just to perform well. i think people just expect you to be 100%. thatd be ridiculous if you were even like 75%. its not like a striker is expected to score on every shot. most shots dont even arent on goal. yet the goalie is just expected. but yah, im glad he choked. im feeling good bout making it past group play. i also love europeans and soccer. they love this crap. just straight up engulf it. its a crazy experience to be in europe. i mean..czech's not even in the world cup but people eat it up like me eating my stale sandwich. nomnomnom.

other news. im officially down to 6 korunas. thats like...$.30. haha. i have no money and my debit card was rejected. so...hence me eating my stale bread sandwich. but having no money does allow me to really cherish and thank God for having money in the states. people got cash. people got credit. people got it good. when youre really poor like..6 kc poor, you really appreciate the comfort of having money. i mean...i was in line at the store w 2 bars of soap and then i realized.."f me..i dont have enough money. each bar was 9 kc ($.43). i had 16 kc =/. so i goodbye 1 bar of soap. i will cherish this bar of soap. none will go to waste. life lesson learned.

ok i finished my sandwich. it was dry. but i am satisfied. i got skype today to call BofA. what a genius program. i am officially w the skype hipness. sweet. cant wait to veg out tonight and just relax. chat. read. sleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep. may God bless this week w new experiences and new blessings. i miss back home. i miss seeing family and friends. i love desiring more life and more experience. til then. peace out player player



currently on my mind: sanctus real - these things take time (acoustic)
