Merry Christmas and Happy new year 2008!!!

I wish you all happy and succesful new Year 2008. I have spent the Christmas time at home with my family as usual (Prechovice, South Bohemia, Czech Republic). My mom decorated our house in a very interesting way this year. You can see a little example in one of the pictures. My dad bought the most beautiful Christmas tree ever and we also have so much Christmas sweets!!!

Last Get Together before Christmas

On Thursday 20th December I have organised in Vienna our last meeting before going home for Christmas. It was a very nice and very long :-)) evening with a lot of food and drinks in one of the typical viennese pubs - "the Centimeter" and then at our dorm. I got used to all the people I have met in Austria and at the end it was quite sad to say goodbye to them because I am not sure how we can see each other in January because some of them will spend just few days in Vienna.

CEMS Christmas party

CEMS Club in Vienna organised a closing Christmas party for us. It was an opportunity to see each other before Christmas or for the last time because some people are leaving already now. It was at a very nice place and we also got some presents + free drinks and sandwiches. Anyway everybody was quite stressed before today´s German exam and we left early. Today I had a presentation in Business German and I also wrote one exam yesterday. Tomorrow there is the last one and we can do another party in the evening. On Friday I am going back to the Czech Republic.

Pancake lunch

This weekend is a long studying session but everybody needs to eat so we did some pancakes for lunch. I was also iceskating with Martin yesterday. Apart from that I am studying and studying. And I am going to play the piano for a while in the afternoon.

Last Kaiko party

I spent my weekend with studying, christmas shopping and we had a party on Saturday night. It was just a get together in our dorm. On Monday I was at the Uni and then I went to visit my tandem partner Agnes to her flat but I still didn´t take any picture of her. I will do it I promise. After that I went for a while to the Kaiko club because there was the last party in this semester in this club. Christmas and final exams are coming closer and closer:-)))))). Huhuhuhuhu!!!!

Iceskating adventure

There are a lot of places for public iceskating in Vienna so we decided to try one of them near the Stadtpark. I went with Karol, Andy and Anita and we had a lot of fun. I just borrowed some old skating shoes and now I have big blisters on my feet but it will be all right soon. There were a lot of people and we also had one punsch.

Cultural experience with my mom!!!

My dear mother came to Vienna to educate herself at the Hilton Congress Centre and we spent some time together on Thursday and at the weekend. She brought me a lot of food so I have a full fridge now :-)). Thanks again! We went to the Centre together and we were little bit squeezed by the shopping crowd on Saturday. Anyway the Christmas atmosphere is everywhere and the markets and "Glühwein" are still so nice. We went to the Volksoper to see the Opera from Mozart: the Zauberflöte. It was also crowded but we enjoyed it. On Sunday the streets were not so full. We had a coffee at Starbucks, then we visited an advent organ concert in the Maltese Church and finally we had a drink in the Hilton bar. I also got an advent calender from my mom!!!
