Szia!

Hello World!
So I am sitting here, round two because I accidentally deleted my first blog post :( Wha wahhhhh. Anyway, I wanted to tell you about the highlights of my weekend. Thursday Peter Pazmany, the school I attend, hosted a "faculty party" which basically means that they have a party in the courtyard of the school where they serve free wine and cheap booze and have music, folk dancing, and bands. It was awesome! Unfortunately for me I had class from 4:30-8 so I was unable to join the festivities until later. When I did join however it seemed as if everyone at school was beyond tipsy, which was funny because who would have though that would be happening in the back yard of a Catholic school...actually a lot of people would probably think that's exactly what's happening. Anyway, from my class window I took a video of some Hungarian folk dance so I hope you enjoy the Happy Hungarians:

(Sorry, the video refuses to upload, so here's a picture instead).

Yesterday, May 1st we celebrating May Day! Yay! I was told that in Hungary May day is kind of like Labor day...or maybe I wasn't told that and I just made it up...oh well. Anyway, one of my Hungarian friends Szuanna had a group of our friends over to her house in Telki (which is in the countryside) for some Paprikas Krumpli. It was sooooo awesome. We went on the metro to the Buda side where we took a bus about 40 min to the country and walked a little to Szuanna's house. It was so nice to be out of the city, and her town is so beautiful. Szuanna cooked us dinner (which was over an open fire on in a cauldron with a huge wooden spoon, very Harry Potter), we drank wine, played ping pong, badminton, hiked up to this hill to watch the sunset, ate, and listened to the Italians play the guitar and sing. The food was delicious, the company wonderful and the weather fantastic. It was such a good Hungarian day!
Anyway, I have only 18 more days here in Hungary! So weird! I love and miss you all!
