Yesterday was the best time I have since I have arrived here in Klagenfurt. Our class did a tour of the old town and went over the history with us in german...its such an awesome feeling knowing what she is saying.... That was interesting...I found the Theatre house of course and looked to see if anything was playing and I was in luck. I went to see later that night, by myself, a dance production that was put on by a studio in Klagenfurt...The tickets were cheap...40 Euro but 10 for being a student...in europe they are so helpful with all of that. The production was awesome those kids are so talented and way ahead of the kids in the States. I sat in a beautiful theatre..sipped on a glass of red wine...and just was in heaven. It was fabulous...I even found 20 Euro on the ground before entering which was a plus...if people were around I would have asked but it was dead...after that I was starving and ended up finding this awesome Italien german restaruant...it was nice...it made me fall in love with the Austrian way of life...they had a magic show going on and it was really quite hilarious...the food was great...the town was alive...it is not dead..there are a lot of things to do really...and it was nice not being in a touristy restaurant... when I got back mehgen and I went to the cafe across the street and just hung out and had some beers..it was a blast...We ended up staying there until 5 in the morning talking with the owners...they closed the shop down around 24.00 and we stayed just talking and dancing and learning about the cultrual differences...the people here are not rude...they don't look at you because its their way of giving you privacy...they are not trying to not aknowledge you...the woman and men are more equal here than in the states...so smiling at girls when walking past makes them think 1 of 3 things...fake...flirting...or making fun... guys..think your flirting.. the whole warm and inviting smile thing doensn't go the distance here like it does back home...so I have been getting awesome by not staring and smiling...in Germany though I like it better...you just do a blink to aknowlege someone..I appreciate the Austrian way of life very much but I am definitely a german at heart... I think tomorrow...I might go to paris.. There is a big party going on tonight and then I might go tango dancing with some people I met last night..and then next week I would like to go to Italy...it didn't work out exactly how I planned but it turned out better. I got to be more independent ...figure out the buses...find my way around the alte stadt and see the differnt shops and what they have to offer...although..being out of country with a cell phone that you get in Germany...is super expensive...in Germany I can recieve calls for free but being out of country you get charged either way...30 euro down the drain....;( So this weekend should be eventful. Mehgen and I went to the Hofer other wise known as Aldi and stocked up on food because Montag ist ein Freirtag...thats so weird slipping in and out of german without even realizing it...thats exciting...They have so many holidays...I love it! No school! So Paris it is...for 2 days...? We will see...I will have to leave early in the morning if thats going to happen... so in short all is going well. I feel much more content....If I don't go to Paris tomorrow...then Mehgen and I will go hiking...up the mountains and have a picnic and our own party...I guess I can always go to Paris...I am going to be living in Germany...I looked at the Heidelberg Universität and I would need to take some more German courses before I attend the Uni. but I think its worth it...Jazz..and Pre-Vet...and you they have a program that the credits will also be credible in the states...I have been emailing them and they are all about helping and getting places to live...jobs..etc...and this school would only be 250 euro..for a semester...how cheap is that...compared to the States thats heaven...and if I don't like it...i can always come back tot KC...at least I can do a semester for sure...but I think this will be good for me for now...I just feel like in Kc I am at a dead end...I love it there and the jazz scene is hip but...that will always be there...and the more I think about it the more confident I feel with my descision. So wish me luck!
