A longer discription of the first 2 weeks.

So. Let's gather ourselves here and try to write a blog article on the subject of first 2 weeks. So begins the adventure of ssárkány, an Estonian blind freak who had enough of his country and who decided to go abroad and see some far related nations. For this, Hungary was a perfect choice. Be prepared magyars, here I am! Let it be noted here, that the English version is certainly going to contain lot's of mistakes, so don't bash me for this. Szerda - 10.09.2008 It's 4 o'clock in the morning. The trip from home lasted for an hour. I haven't slept, because the rush of adrenaline struck me only in the last evening, with it's entire fource it had to offer. The departure time of the flight to Prag was about 5:20 and it lasted for an hour and 50 minutes. But before this a typical goodbye from the parents. Nothing special, just a small hug and then through the check-in. The airport of Talllinn had organised an assisstant for me. So I sat there and waited for the ironmade winged angel. A similar assistant helped me in prag also, but the difference was that the Estonian assistant was a small and young man, but the Check assistant was a large and massive middle-aged slavonian. Then I went to the Budapest plane, which travelled to buda a bit longer than an hour. The assistant in Budapest was attila. Szerda nap - Budapest. In the Budapest airport Gábi, the director of YFU Hungary was waiting for me. Let it be noted that it was Gábriela, not Gabor as one might think when usually hearing the word Hungary. After this we went to pick up another Chinese girl from the trainstation. She arrived from Seged and had had for this time a day or 2 for getting used to Hungarian lifestyle. Well I had not had these fine days, but I still didn't feel myself like I was thrown into the water at an unknown place. The day was spent attending a meating in the office of yfu. There lots of different things where discussed, starting from Hungarian history and ending with a short summary of Hungarian language, including some school slang. About 3 o'clock my Mother came to receive me from the office of YFU and my exchange year had got a good start. I don't remember exactly about what we were speaking with family this day, but I went to sleep quite early and sleep came very easily. csütörtök - 11.09.2008 I woke up very early in the morning. At first we visited school and got to know my classmates and the form teacher. The next stop was the office of immigrational affairs, where we applied for the my permission to stay in Hungary. My idea was to get myself a Hungarian bank account and a telephone number. The entire day we visited different offices and places, including Teszkó, where we tried kürtős kolágy, or that's the way I think it's being written. I generally like it. Péntek - 12.09.2008 On friday I visited the blind-school in budapest, where my mother works as a maths and chemistry teacher. I made lots of friends and learnt many new words. After this we went to look for a synthesizer for the family children. I just asked if the synth Korg r3 is available there, and we were directed to another shop, where I saw this little analog beast. PS. I'm planning to buy this little thing, because it's cheeper here than in Estonia. I wasn't unfortunately able to record this instrument, because the batteries went out on wednesday. Szombat - 13.09.2008 The morning wake up was a bit later than usually. the plan for the day was to go to a cottage in the middle of Duna. there are such islands where we can have this kind of houses. There was a new gate, which we painted. Among other things we organised a open-air lunch, and a walk around the area. After the tasks were complete, we went home and worked in the garden. The flowers needed water and we gave it to them. Vásárnap - 14.09.2008 On this day we woke up earlier. We went to the other cottage of the family, which is much larger than the first one. The plan of the day included the gathering of various fruits, sawing woods and making fire outside. All this done we went home and had a dinner. The day ended with everyone drifting away to the road of dreams. From this point begins the first schoolweek, but about this a bit later.
