choot - choot kanyeshnah (a little bit, of course)

we played a game in class on thursday and this crazy finnsih guy in our class picked choot choot kanyeshnah as the team name haha which it doesnt even really make sense

well this is my first post since wednesday so lets see..

thursday i had school until 3 and then i rushed home, did jillian, got a shower, and went to the opera.. the opera was pretty cool i guess.. it was a little long- we were there from 7-10:30 which i dont know what an opera in the US is like so i dont really have anything to compare it too.. I'd like to see what one is like i know that Tomasello's has them but actually i liked the ballets alot better than the opera.. i just didnt feel as connected with the opera but the language barrier and not knowing the story may have had something to do with it..

friday me and maria went to a cafe to get apricot pirogy (pie) but they didnt have any sweet ones sadly :( so i got a meat one with a cappachino yummm! then i went to this market behind a church on nevsky prospect and worked my bargaining skills.. cant let these vendors take advantage of little miss america :)

then friday night we went to a georgian rest. and it was delicious! we had something called hotchaporie (totally spelled wrong, even google couldnt find it)but it was almost like a quesadilla - bread with cheese inside.. and drumbroll- i TRIED LAMB! aren't you so proud of me for trying it? lol it was very good though...

after that we wanted ice cream but it was after 11 so alot of places were closed so we went to mcdonalds to get mcflurries and they have diff. flavors here.. i got chocolate and strawberry w. vanilla ice cream it was soo good! jess you prob. would love their flavors!

we got back on the metro and got off a stop early so we could walk (half way across the island) but we were bored and didnt feel like going back yet and i love walking so i dont care.. then i went home and went to sleep!

i got up this morning and i did jillian and got a shower. emily and i went to this place called cafe zoom for lunch and i got a chef's salad and the dressing was like a creamy french garlicy flavor it was so good.. and i got a non-alcoholic mohito and pina collata they were both so good!! and the prices there were pretty reasonable too

now im just killing some time before i leave for the ballet on ice.. so glad i have something to do tonight - i hate weekends here they drag! too much free time is dangerous

anyway its a beautiful day here i might just sit outside and tan in the meantime

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ARIANNA LOVE YOUUUU <3333
