Vienna Bobanna Feefanna

YESTERDAY

-Yesterday I took a tour with Paula in this big mansion, "Schonbrunn" and I stood in the room where Mozart played his first concert. WOWZA. The rooms were filled with chandeliers, golden decorations and paintings of those who lived in the masion.

-I went to the MOMUK museum which is a modern art museum. It was incredibly weird. There was an exhibition on gender studies and I saw some crazy art pieces. There were tons of videos, one of them featuring two clothed women humping each other without barely ever touching and another video where a woman said, "Art must be beautiful, artist must be beautiful" over and over again while violently combing her hair with a comb and a brush.

-I met Paula and her engaged friends. I liked them. But...the guy said he thinks gay people can't have the same quality of love as straight people. And that's of course a load of buuuuuuullSHIT.

-I went out to a bar where we saw a Hungarian band play. I hung out with Paula and met some of her other friends. The first friend I met walked with us to the bar and he was really cool. We hung out more than I hung out with Paula by the end of the night and he bought me a drink. Then during the last band that played, a good looking girl from the audience got up and danced. She was great. The guy that came with Paula and me to the bar said to me about the last song, "I really like this...but it's NOT about of the girl." Hahaha it struck me funny. I started answering, "It IS about-" then I stopped cause I realized maybe my opinion was better left unsaid.


Before I talk about what I did today, I remembered something that happened on the train coming to Vienna from the airport on Wednesday. I was sitting, minding my own business when I heard people kissing behind me. I thought it was funny that I happened to be back to back with lovers, separated only by my seat. Then one of them talked. It was the girl. I didn't understand it because it was in German. Then the other one talked. Another girl? Yep, I was an inch away from lesbians making out during the entire train ride.


TODAY

-I went ice-skating with Paula and her younger brother Filippo! And I tried orange punch. They went back on the ice rink as I was finishing up my punch. I took some pictures of them when they passed by. I was taking forever to drink it so I decided to sacrifice the last ten sips for more skating time since we had to leave soon for lunch. When I went back on the ice, I noticed a girl ahead of me, waving her hips as she skated and to be honest, my eyes were fixed on her. I started to skate past her, turing my head and focusing my eyes to see if I was attracted to her face, which would make me feel even better about her ass. Then suddenly I heard my name being called by Paula and Filippo: "Stoddy!" I was caught! I quickly turned and said, "Hey!" louder than I anticipated, scared that they might have noticed me checking out the girl. They asked me, "Were you looking for us?" They must have seen me turning my head, assuming I was scoping out the skating crowd and trying to find them. I'm sad to say I told a little white lie at the heat of the moment. "Yeah, there you are!" I answered. I laughed at myself.

-I had lunch with Paula's parents and grandmother and ate an Austrian meatloaf dish that was decent. I like Wienerschnitzel better. For dessert, I had a dish with pancakes cut up into pieces, surrounding some kind of cream. It was also pretty good. I said it reminded me of a dessert version of shellfish because the pancake acted as a shell around the mooshier insides.

-Tonight I'm going to a French party and then a German party with Paula. She was invited to both by two different friends.

  1. I hate that you lost some blogging! Mom and I loved the museum where you had to yell to get the lights to go. I can see an artist sitting at a cafe some place, making little notes on a napkin, and then suddenly getting it. "I'll do a piece of art that makes people yell at it!" Well, it worked.
