New Chapter

I don't understand how one place can be so good, but I have yet to hear anything negative about Prague other than that the language is indecipharable (I was listening to it on Czech radio the other day and I think it sounds more complex than Russian), the traditional Czech cuisine is not exactly vegetarian-friendly and it gets cold there. Like, really cold. Not like "coldest winter I ever spent" Mark Twain San Francisco cold. But none of those things seem that bad, either.

I was thinking about the fact that I'll be 29 by the time I get my Bachelor's Degree. It's publishing that I want to go into so I've been looking for internships (unpaid and something I can do this summer before Prague and it's almost June!!!!!), but I only found one publishing internship near where I'll be living. It's at a small publishing house in Alameda. I'm gonna apply for it, I think. This could be disastrous, simply because of my lack of experience, but I have pretty good writing skills so I'll keep my fingers crossed.

I went through a period recently that was probably the hardest time I've ever been through in terms of how I felt about myself, but I got through it and I'm so ready to have a great summer. Also, I no longer have an eating disorder!

Best movie just recently viewed on Netflix: "Cherish" starring Robin Tunney. So far I've only seen two Czech films: "Zelary" (which only had partial subtitles and wasn't terrible considering I didn't understand most of what was going on) and "I Served The King Of England," which was quite good. Let me know if you know of any good Czech films.
