okay so friday i didnt really do anything. i swept and mopped my room. that was good. and i'm not really sure what else happened, but i'm sure it wasnt very exciting. however...
SATURDAY
today i got up and went to Statue Park, which consists of the communist statues (from the communist era. obviously) in hungary. rather than destroying them like most did, hungary chose to save theirs for display. Basically, they're capitalizing on communism. ironic? maybe. but who can blame 'em. anyway, my guide was really long-winded so i wandered off with a few others and took tons of pictures. i think some of them turned out really cool. i'll post more on my site. (and todd, there were statues of lenin. it was stalin that was no more.)
LATER THAT NIGHT...
Richard, the australian guy . . .
told me about this beat boxer, Killa Kela. (if you don't know what a beat boxer is, it's a guy who does a turntable routine with just his vocals.) he said he was better than rahzel. he was right. this guy was freakin amazing. we went to this docked boat and paid about $10 to get in. there was some sort of eatery on top and a dance club type thing below. as much as i hate extremely loud music, this was too cool to pass up. It was more like a show than a concert or anything. me trying to describe it to you is useless. you'll just have to download some of his music or something because it truly is indescribably cool. (and it's definitely a lot cooler in person.) yeah, so then after he got done they played hip-hop music for a while and THEN they went into drum and bass. it was so awesome. these europeans love dance/trance music. they were just dancing all over the place. i think i could get into their type of dancing. i dont know if we dance like this at home or not because i've never been anywhere, but these americans that were with us thought they danced weird. oh well. i just thought it was cool because there was nothing sexual about it. like it wasnt bump and grind crap. it was just moving to the music. i hope i get to go back sometime. yeah so we were there till about 2.5am and then ended up sitting around and talking till around 5.0am. i havent done that in a while, so i felt reasonably crappy today. (plus i had this grease with chinese food mixed into it for lunch right after i woke up. yeah, that was like a lead weight in my stomach all day.)
we didnt make it to church this morning because the girl couldnt get in touch with the people she knew (who knew where the church was). gonna make it happen next week.
well. i guess back to budapest. cause that's where i live. budapest.
