Whoa. We are almost done. I think almost the entire Kolej left today. Gone. I finished two papers and just have two projects, school here is basically over. For art and arcitecture the other day we walked around, saw "da baby Jesus." There is a church here that has a little wax baby Jesus that the nuns changes it's attire weekly. Strange, I don't really understand why or how so much money can go into his very decadenct, fancy schmancy robes. But I respect and enjoyed it. On our way out a monk stopped us and asked where each student was from and if we were "believers." Suprising, just a catholic and me, the rest of the crew choice to claim agnostic or atheist. The monk did care he said, "It doesnt' matter who you are, or what you believe, or don't believe you still come because you love the baby Jesus." He was so excited to meet us, he pulled us back into another room and gave us little posters of the baby Jesus, then pulled back more and said, " I have something special for you." He have us each postcard size pictures? of Mary and Jesus, made of butterflies by the children in 'Africa!' Wow, strange again, but interesting and just fantastic. For the second half of class we went to a pub, as a class at maybe 11:30am? 11:45am? and had a beer with our teacher! Totally normal, no big deal. Jess and I went to eat and then came back to the Kolej, Kish and Laura were gone and we did
n't know where John was either...we get a call from they, they had stumbled upon a small festival with music and locals! We love every chance we get to interact with locals! It was really cool, some guys were doing cool frisbee tricks and another one with a hacky sack, really cool actually. I was very impressed. I had to leave everyone a little early because Thursday night I had an interview with DAVID CERNY!! He is a big deal artist here, and is well known through out Europe. Yea, he is googlable. He is such a strange man, I can't believe I met him, wow. Probably one of the greatest things that have happened here, it really reminded me never to be afraid to ask someone, you really never know. I thought I might get an email interview, maybe, but nope. Roxanne had a beer with David Cerny. bam. wow. phew.

Yesterday was sad, we just ran around did some last minute errands with Laura. The square had a lot going on because of the marathon. We ate at a vegetarian place and then to a concert at the Rudolfinum, it was nice. We were all dressed up and the concert hall is right across the bridge, wonderful view. I love the city at night. It is so beautiful.
This morning Laura left.
Love from Praha,
Roxanne
