No laptop currently, so no skype dates right now!

heres the update, be warned this is just mean complaining:

the charger for my laptop got fried. i think i've been inserting the charger into the socket incorrectly, so i had to order a new one. it will be possibly 2 weeks till it comes in (which means so skype and i will only get to emails at school which is 30 min. from my flat right now, sorry guys). i'm really aggravated right now, with lack of communication with yall and the craziness that is my last day of TEFL.

also, i won't know if i have a job with the school or not until (maybe) next week. itsn't that great news. i still haven't heard back about my work permit, so who knows when i'll be heading out for europe travels, it might be never....

*i apologize again for the complaining, but its been a very very irritating week for me. and since i have no punching bag to work on, my blog will just have to do.

one thing that may be nice to note on is i met a potenetial roommate and place to live in sept.
(assuming i have work). because prague is an expensive place to live, the best deals i could find involved sharing a flat with a roommate. i met my first one yesterday, and from what i've looked into, this may be the definite one, but i'm figuring out my options first before signing anything.

the flat is maybe a 5 minute walk from old town square, and very close to everything else! its in a safe part of town on a quiet street. furnished, hallway, kitchen with full equiptment use and table, bathroom and shower, and a very big shared living area including my own desk, window, and lots of closet space (all utilties included). Sandra (a Slovakian student) is about my age and extremely bright. she is fluent in english, spanish and knows Slovakian and a little German. She is very nice, easy-going and loves to travel when she isn't working (her family lives 2 hours for Budapest). from our first meeting i could tell we would have no major problems living together, we both seem like easy-going people who have work to get done but also want to have fun on the weekends. but again, i won't decide anything until next week when i have a better idea of my work/visa situation.

anyways, i'm really frusterated about the computer, but what the heck can i do about it? please be nice about the "no skype" thing, i just don't have the means to do it. anyways, if you have a free minute, please say a prayer for me about work/visa/travel stuff, i feel like busting my head against the wall. i hope this perky blog made your day, again, sorry about the intense sarcasm.

-uuurrrgh!
