This morning we had class and I have decided that our previous
teacher was a better/more experienced teacher. The new teacher is young and
seems to be intimidated by teaching; she kept apologizing for having us do
things in class. We did some review and all we learned today was past tense
which really is difficult at all. We did some group activities and at the end
of the day we played charades (and of course we sang which I recorded today!). We
have a final exam on Thursday to see what exactly we have learned.
During our break I walked around town, visited the post office, a random church, and another more famous church Modra Kolstol, or Blue Church. It was beautiful and Grandma K. you would have loved it (since it was all blue). Just like you told me I said a little prayer/wish upon entering this new church. Just know you are in my thoughts, hoping you have a speedy recovery! <3
Random Church
A gymnazium- or highschool here.
The Blue Church
Then we had our workshops again today. The singing group is pretty fun accept for the fact that we sang for 3 hours pretty much straight. The first half hour we warmed up, doing some voice exercises. Apparently at the final ceremony/party Friday we will be singing and all the other groups will be sharing things as well. We are going to be singing 8 short folk songs from around Slovakia. Then I walked around town with this girl Ecaterine from Moldova. She really wanted Subway… because she thought it was awesome and had never had it before coming to Bratislava! I was amazed… the biggest fast food chain in the world and there are none in Moldova! What a thought. So we walked around and I had a piece of pizza which was pretty terrible. We took the tram home and I hung out with Autumn for a bit before she left. Now I am enjoying a quiet night to myself. I love and miss all you crazy Ohio-ans!!!!
