Results of Game
My school lost, it was ridiculous b/c they were soo winning, and then somehow just screwed everything up, the ball was intercepted in the last minute, on top of them already losing, thus making it totally impossible for them to do something miraculous in the last few seconds. Not a disappointment though in the sense that I still had a really fun time. Watching the student section move en masse was entertaining - almost as much as the game itself. Guess I have been missing out all these years.

Halloween and Football
Any suggestions for costumes? I haven't been thinking about it much, until now that is, and I have zero clue what I should dress up as.
I will be going to my first college football game ever this weekend. Wish me luck!

Doctors Are Sadistic Evil Creatures
Went to the clinic today, b/c the glands in my throat on the right size were monstrously swollen. The doctor of course has to do a "culture", which being an anthropologist doesn't sound too bad.*
However, the method was to take this long spiky thing and jam it as hard as possible into the back of my already extremely swollen and sore throat. Doctor of course does preface this act by saying "it might hurt a little" A little!? I honest to God nearly cried. Supposedly I will feel better in 24-48 hours, which means that tomorrow whilst I am teaching I will be absolutely miserable.**
Incidentally, in reference to the notes at the bottom, I have decided I use ( ) too much, so I am reverting to footnotes. Just a change of scenery :)
*yeah, I know it was a bad joke
**even more so than usual

......
Taking four days off to go to Toronto last weekend was not a good idea. I will spill all the interesting tidbits about that adventure on the other blog since it is Ukrainian related. Amazing how behind one can get, though I have been fairly productive this weekend.
Yesterday, I went to a Hungarian dinner at my friend's church (see, I did use the word "church" and not "cult"). The food was good, but very very different from Slavic cuisine. The best thing I believe was the cherry soup, and since I am hopeless at cooking, I will have to find someone else to make it for me. There was also some dancing. I only saw a bit of it, but the couple was pretty good (much better than those other dancers). The woman did a lot of spinning, and everyone in the crowd had basically the same question "are you dizzy?" when she finished. Apparently it just takes some getting used to, and then you are fine. I would have fallen over - seriously.
What is rather funny though, is that I bought a necklace there, supposedly from Hungary. Its pink, and I have only one pink shirt, but it was very pretty, and I couldn't resist. Anyway today, I was in the grocery store and this woman tried to buy it from me. She was serious too! Not sure if anyone else has had such an experience, I definitely haven't (probably b/c I live in my own little fashion world). She didn't seem very impressed by the fact that it was Hungarian though; no, she just thought it was "beautiful."
