A Study Break

So how about a blog before I start studying this morning? What a fabulous idea. This evening is my first exam, International Studies. I have another exam tomorrow afternoon and a third one Friday morning. I am just thrilled that all three exams are on each other's butts. Super. I went to the public library last night to try to get away from my busy household, but there may as well have been birthday parties going on there. I swear there were 20 kids running around the entire time I was there. Still I managed to get more done there than I would've here... American Idol and Amazing Race are simply too tempting.

The other distracting thing at the library is that I know where all the travel books are there and I found about 5 of them about Prague. WHERE I'M GOING IN TWO WEEKS!!! Seriously just yesterday I looked at the calender and realized this fact. It's hardly even a thought in my mind because I have been so busy with school lately. But 2 weeks? That is VERY soon! I can hardly believe it. I am glad I have a blog, becuase I'm sure that I will be able to write to you all as much as I can while I'm there. I know that both the hostel in Prague and the hostel in London have internet access, but those only account for a few of my nights. Most of the trip I am staying at the University of Prague, so I don't know if there will be internet access there. But internet cafe's run wild and free in Europe so I'll probably have access to it somewhere. The one girl who was supposed to be traveling with Jen and I just told us that her cousin is very sick and might die, so she might not come with us after all. That is very sad and I really like Jackie so I hope she can come with us. I also hope I don't run out of money while I'm away :)

I also am in dire need of a camera. I want to take Jenna's digital camera with me but she says you have to charge it every 10 minutes and that is really not a cool idea. If anyone is willing to lend me a digital (I have insurance if it gets lost or stolen!), I would be eternally grateful. When I went to Thailand, Jayce Kadyschuk lent me his big MEC traveling backpack, and guess what, nothing happened to it. You know why people? Because I am freaking responsible.

Yesterday I went to Matthew's school play, Bugsy Malone. He was Fizzy. He had a solo! I was so nervous for him, as I always am when someone sings a solo. I can't help it. Sometimes I'm even nervous when my mom sings a solo and she is a superstar! But it was cute. I can't believe how much work the teacher must have put into it. I would like to direct school plays, but only if that was my ONLY job... not if it was extra-curricular. I think it would be fun.

Well since I just talked about Jenna and Matthew, I had better talk about Phil. So I just went down to Philip's room and it smells like boy. You know that smell? Ick. Somebody buy that kid Fabreeze.

It's time for blogerdash! Actually, no that is too much work. Instead... I present to you...

TRIVIAL BLOGSUIT!


What game-show host made a suprise appearance on Will Farrell's final Saturday Night Live show?

(All you trivia junkies should enjoy my new blog feature.)

Maybe... the price is right guy, Bob Parker ( you know have your pets spaed or neutered!) I don't know, thats a guess... but anyways Kristin i liked your blog its always enjoyable, i have probllems studying at home too, there are way too many distractions...like checking peoples blogs ( like i am doing right now), or lying down in my bed, or going to the kitchen and eating something, or talking to people, or cleaning, or you know what i mean this list will go on forever!

Dearest Kristin,
I have a Prague tip for you. You can go to an Opera in one of the oldest opera houses in the WORLD for $10canadian. you simply cannot miss this opportunity. Even if you don't fully understand or appreciate opera, one day you may love it, and if not, people will think you are very cultured when you tell them.
Love you
Alison

Oh friends, it seems next time I will have to do a harder trivia question, especially if Jenna could get it!!!! Alex Trebeck was correct. Good job Jenna and Rylan. Ashley had a good answer too.

And Alison, we are going to the opera there, so no worries! I can't wait!!!
