Back to the Happyland

Finally, I managed to sit down a start writing again. My first post of my renewed Derberian blog :)

A month has gone...

My dearest friends,

I don't believe it as well, but it is really more than a month since I've left. If it's going to be so quick, I'll be home really soon. Too soon...

Anyway, I should describe some more of my present and forget the future for now.

I'll write retrospectively today

Yesterday, i.e. on Saturday, there has been a great festé to celebrate the opening of our great Westfield Shopping Centre. Derby was busy, busy, busy. In the morning there has been "Shakes in the City" - some scenes from Shakespeare's most famous plays. It was nice, but really short (for example, Romeo and Juliet were represented only by the balcony scene).

In the afternoon we went to "Dance Experience". In our Multi-faith Centre was taking place a multicultural event with Punjabi dancing (Indies) and Circle dancing (Ireland?). It was fun, even though they forced us to join in However, I loved it.

The evening was the best of all. We had Sarruga in Derby (check out their site any my photos). It was really massive. All those dragons blowing smoke and spitting fire. I had goose bumps. Really thrilling. I must find a way how to get them to Prague.

I started intensively search for a job this week. I would like to find something more permanent, so I could return in summer to earn some money (and maybe buy myself a ride finally). I applied for Poundland - obviously, they sell everything for 1 pound. It was real fun. I really started wondering if there are some British people working in Derby. It seems that everybody is Polish in here. I had a really bad experience in my bank explaining a Polish clerk that I just need my International Bank Account Number. She didn't have a clue what I was speaking about. Similar experience is from Poundland. I dropped my CV in the shop - that was the last pleasant thing. On Wednesday and had a rather badly spoken message on my Answer Phone that I should come for an interview. I phoned back once. Not much success. I phoned back in the morning, tried to explain everything as clear as I can (I hated phoning to that moment, but I don't give a f*** since, there are people speaking much worse English and they are calling on the phone as well, so why should I care), the response I got was: "Could you repeat everything you said?". Repetition wouldn't help, the woman tried to get somebody to help her with the call. Later she decided that I should call once more. The second call was even funnier, I was told that the interviews start next day at the time I stated that I'm not available Later that day I was told there are is no vacancy and when I asked how is that possible when the interviews haven't had started, I didn't get an intelligent answer. So F@K Poundland, I don't understand how they can employ such responsible person with such a high level of English

Anyway, Thursday was saved by my new piercing and by Jana's birthday party. I met there her housemates and some more friends of her housemates. Particularly interesting were the Geology students Some more people who think I'm American, I should probably stop speaking about the Czech Republic

Wednesday, my exhausting day. I got a one-day job at the Mickleover Campus (the old campus due to be demolished this week). Anyway, it was really great. We were throwing out old books from the library but we were also allowed to take as many as we wanted. The flight home will be really interesting.

Hopefully, this will solve my money situation a little bit - I'll get 6 pounds for each hour I've spent there Still, it was horribly hard work - on my scale of nail breaking it reached 4 / 10 (comparing to shopping - 1 fingernail out of 10 - or bell ringing - 1 out of 10)

Not to forget - I promised more Derby pictures and here they are - http://picasaweb.google.cz/marinov.jane/20071006. We went through most of the city, however there are still some more places we would like to see.
I guess that's the end for today. It's the laundry day today again, so I'll better go block some washing machines.

Send my love.

Mary
