Walk to Leopoldberg

On Thursday 1st November we made a little afternoon hiking trip to the Vienna Forest and wine-yard area. We have enjoyed a lovely view on the city from Leopoldberg and we ended our walk in one of the Heurigers in Nussdorf. Unfortunately the pictures are very dark because it was already late afternoon.

Halloween party!

After a lot of days of hard studying I deserved some relax. And since there was Halloween on Wednesday we decided to celebrate it. I have passed my second SAP course this day as well which was another reason for celebration! I did nto want to wear a mask at first but then other people persuaded me - so I was trying to be a "sexy cat" in the evening. The whole thing was such a fun. Anita and Andy were witches, Véro was a devil girl, Martin was a professor with moustache, Pavel was a pirate, Liang came with the tradional Vienna mask.

Lucka came to Vienna!!!

This week was terribly full and I felt really exhausted on Friday but then my friend Lucka came to visit me and everything was fine again. I introduced her to some people in my dormitory and we had great time together. On Saturday we did some sightseeing in the City centre. We started at Naschmarkt where we bought some fruit and olives and then we ate it in the park at Karlsplatz - I showed Lucy a lot of buidings such as Karlskirche, Staatsoper, Hotel Sacher, Albertina, Kleines Café, Stephansdom, Hofburg and the Museums. We didn´t go in but we went for an exhibition to Albertina - Picasso & Monet. Then we passed through Kärtner Strasse and we went to Schwedenplatz for an icecream. The weather wasn´t perfect but at least it wasn´t raining. I took Lucka to the restaurant "Selbstverständlich" for dinner (also Martin and Véro went with us). Then we ended at our dormitory again, having fun with other people and Lucka left today. I was learning whole afternoon and I am having quite a headache now so I think I am going early to bed tonight. Bye, bye.

Volksoper - Tanzhommage an Queen

I have just come back from the Volksoper. We went there again (me, Véro, Karolina, Martin Klimes, Pavel and Anita), this time for ballet performance - "Tanzhommage an Queen". It was a modern dancing and the music was really from the Queen. I enjoyed it very much and I had at least some fun during this horrible week full of long days at university.

Weekend in Prague

I spent this weekend in Prague, having rest. I met my friends and I´ve seen my boyfriend Robert finally! It was nice but on Monday I had to jump back to studying. These weeks are not very pleasant. I have interesting subjects but all of them are little bit more time-consuming than I expected. I don´t have enough time to absorb all the information I am getting! But at least I hope I will learn a lot!

Volksoper - La Traviatta

Yesterday I went to the "Wiener Volksoper" with Veronique, Pavel and other people and we saw "La Traviatta! von Verdi. It was great, I really liked it. I have never seen this oper before but during the evening I recognized several arias which I already knew. I think we will go for a ballet next week. My health condition is getting better. I feel fine. I am having my hip-hop lesson tonight and for weekend I go to Prague to see my boyfriend, finally! Hugs to everybody!

Weekend in Bojkovice


I spend last weekend in the Czech Republic with my beloved friends (Monenka, Hrusticka and Verusha). We went to Monika´s house in Bojkovice and I tried rock-climbing for the first time.
On Saturday we also visited a fair in Uherský Brod. I had to go to such a crazy pendulum. I felt little bit sick after I got down but I survived a here I am back in Vienna, studying and studying and studying! This week is terrible. I have so many things to do and I don´t have enough time for everything. I also have to sleep sometimes :-o. I hope it gets better next week! Plus all the books and readers are so expensive! My schedule is also not ready yet. Take care everybody! Hugs. Olinka.

University start!!!

I was quite busy this week and I didn´t have time to write anything. On Monday I wrote the test from German grammar. I did well - I got into the best group and so I could have this course accredited as a CEMS language exam if I pass it, of course :-).
Then I was studying for another test (entry exam to SAP course). A few hours ago I´ve just found out that I got in. Hurrah!
We went swimming yesterday, it was fine and then we went to the Karaoke party, again. We stayed til 3 o´clock, I had fun.

Today there was the first german class and I bought myself a new dark blue beautiful coat in HM and at last but not at least I had my first hip-hop lesson today. We are visiting it with Anita, it will be every Thursday. I am quite tired after the very first time but it was cool.
Tomorrow I am going to see my deer friends to Morava for a weekend, good night.

Trip to Graz - Sa 29.9.2007

I am really glad I went to Graz (2. biggest City after Vienna) because I have never been there before and it is a very nice City. We went at 8:30 from Vienna and got to Graz before noon. Then we had a very rich lunch in an austrian "Gaststätte". We got a guided tour through the City Centre but I really didn´t register the names of the buidings and such things because it was very fast. That was bad because I would want to spend more time there but unfotunately we had to go back to Vienna at 17:30. I arrived at 21:00 to my dorm and I really have to go sleeping. Good night! And of course, here you have some pictures.
