Jessica in Prague

Yes that's the correct way to spell that here. Today Mandy, Amaanda, and I went to see Onegin at the National Theater. That theater is just as pretty as the State Opera, but the seats were better this time. The performance was pretty, good colors and music. It's about a girl who falls in love with a self-centered guy that's in love with the first girl's sister who already has a dude that gets killed by Self-Centered, then the first girl goes on to marry soldier boy, but of course Self-Centered wants her now, but she says no go away.... phew. Catch all that? And everyone wore tights and lived miserably ever after. BTW, Meems and Brian, while you are here, the State Opera is showing Carmen and Madam Butterfly, the National Theater isn't really showing anything interesting.... what one did you want to see? Carmen is on Saturday, and MB is on Sunday.
Tomorrow is the first day of classes (at 8:30 in the freezing morning), and I'm a little anxious. I have no idea what to expect at all. Most are saying that you can pass as long as you show up, others say don't buy the books, still others say it can be pretty challenging. My favorite so far is the person that told me not to worry because it's bad publicity for schools to fail, or even give bad grades, to international students. Good point, eh? Well, gonna put up some pics of my friends. The first one is of Mandy, Amaanda and I, in that order, while at the National Opera today. The other one is our view of the stage there. The last one is of Suzana, my Czech Intensive teacher... should be up soon!!
