Czech it out! (wow that was low)

Yes, yes, its time to update. Its been three days cause I went and visited the Czech Republic (hence the corny title) in the City of Prague. So much walking but the buildings and cathedrals were sooo pretty. The food was unidentifiable, but at any rate it was good. I my favortie thing was the pork on toast that had this mint-colored cream on top. Yeah i know it sounds disgusting, but if you have the right beer to wash it down, you'll do just fine. Don't worry i just had one LEGAL sip to prove to myself that it was totally disgusting. Hey, and you know how i always sneeze when i have altoids...its the same thing with alcohol! I always end up doing the same thing in church. Anyways driving is a nightmare over here! I would NEVER ever even think about driving here. No wonder you have to be 18. Theres no speed limit on this two little bitty road, and you have to get into the other lane (the one thats going the OTHER way) to pass someone. I lost my voice screaming for dear life on that freakin road. And it only took us like 3 hours to find a hotel that was under 200 dollars. We finally found one that was in a SPOOKY apartment complex. It was tragic the way it was like paradise in the middle of a ghetto. spooky indeed. The lights would occasionally shut off and it even smelled like death . Chelsea, Whitney sounds "pretty" horrible (haha), but just be glad your no related. No crunzolagher would ever admit to being so stuck up. Anyways, yesterday night when we got "home" to Vienna, we went to this HUGE festival, (the name was something in german i don't remember). It was kinda crazy/scary. There were alot of drunks and some gay people, and alot of straight people acting gay (typical europe). Even if you are just friends you hold hands and kiss. I wanna go back to texas where its not so confusing. Kinda a culture shock here, but i'll get used to it. Yeah and my cousin always brings pepper spray around, and icompletely understand why. Lots and lots of shady characters. This Asian guy kept staring at me and i got so fed up i started staring back. I mean, it got to the point where even my brother noticed. Its prolly cause i looked like a freaking american, confused in a sea of Austrians. No matter how i dress, people KNOW for sure i AM american. So at this festival everyone was dancing and i thought to myself, what the hey, no one here knows who i am....and i danced! haha. yes, and the 1/2 whiteness in me came out. haha. No matter what fraction of white you are, you cannot dance. awwww. There were also a TON of fireworks for the masses, and me and my cousin would scream at the big ones cause that was what the drunk people would do around us. We ended up walking all the way home because the streetcars we absoltely JAM packed FULL of people leaving. This is one of the city's biggest attractions i guess. And more about people being scary. LAst thursday when i went to get a haircut (bad idea) i went with my cousin to this woman's house that would do our hair. her husband was there and he kept hitting on my cousin! yuck. He was kinda a creepy guy with a shaved head and lots of earrings. He kept insisting that he give us a ride. WE said no in a hurry and left. We ended up just using the streetcar like we do anyways. I'm telling you no one needs a driver's licence over here. Whoa this a long entry so i better get dressed and get a move on.
