Today was in all honesty, pretty quiet. We had Граматика, which was slightly more incomprehensible than usual, and then we went back to the dorm. We didn’t have any excursions planned, which was nice, and we pretty much just relaxed. We did go out to Москафе, a nearby café that has wireless internet. It’s a bit over priced, but if you get one of the more reasonable items on the menu (I paid something like $7.17 for a large milkshake-like thing. A little on the expensive side, I’ll grant you, but more reasonable than most) and sit there for an hour and a half to two hours solely to use their internet connection, it all evens out. Thus, Carley and I each got one item off the menu, and went for the internet..... before we proceeded to realize when Carley’s computer started to die that while we had both brought chargers, we had both forgotten a very important little piece of equipment called an ‘electrical adaptor’. Boys and girls, let it be a lesson to you: If you want to use your computer for an extended period of time in a foreign internet café, you’d best be sure to pack an adapter for your charger, because if you don’t, you’re not going to be going anywhere on the internet after an hour and a half or so. Trust me, we know. We tried.
After this... less than pleasant revelation, we returned to the dorm, and have lurked here ever since. As I said, a less than fascinating day.
