Job Fair Praha

How the fu*k will I get to Prague by myself till 9AM?

It is Tuesday morning and we still hadn´t got the instructions for our job interview in Prague. So I wrote an email to Czech Student Agency about it and they sent me the needed instructions right away. I was very dissapointed that they didn´t even consider the fact, that there is a heap of people from Slovakia who just can´t get there till 9AM.
I am lucky that I don´t live far away from Czech boundaries but anyhow- I´ll have to sleep over at my friend´s place in Brno to get to Prague on time. Otherwise I would have to get up at 3am to make the train to Prague.
My plan is to get out of Trnava till 4pm, at home pack up some stuff needed (for example my stockings, heels and dress- because as we were told- we are not allowed to wear jeans at the HRC interview- I would understand that if we were applying for a job in some fancy hotel or restaurant but Hard Rock Cafe is pretty cool, rock and roll, free spirit place where there are no rules that tighten up your individuality but... nevermind...I´ll be a princess at the interview and a hard rock queen during summer :D speaking of that, I have to get my hair red again) and hurry for a bus to Brno. There I will sleep at Michelle´s place and I have to get up at 4:30am because the yellow bus will wait for me only for 5:30am. I am going with Student Agency yellow bus with this convenience- Relax and Fun-  free wifi connection, free hot beverage, free newspaper and not an expensive comfort- I have never travelled by SA buses, but when Prince and I were having meetings in Brno he always went by SA buses and I´ve heard only great things about it, so (again) I wanna try it because he said so :)
The interview starts at 9am, I get to Prague at 8:10am so I have exactly 50 minutes to get SOMEHOW to Hard Rock Cafe restaurant. It is not like I have never been to Prague. I have been there once or twice, but in the first case I was only 4 years old and in the second case I was at school trip so we were only allowed to walk in some huge mall. Fortunatelly I have a friend that has a boyfriend that lives in Prague for half a year so she gave me some instructions and since I didn´t get lost in Paris and in Paris subway, I hardly doubt that I won´t make it in Prague :) We´ll see about that :)

Hello America! :)


In February my friends -Nicol and Pete- and I were in Prague for an interview with our future employer Hard Rock Cafe :) We did great so we got the job. At first it supposed to be in Myrtle Beach in South Caroline but we couldn´t get the job there because of the fact that we were a group of three. However we got even better offer- to work for Hard Rock Cafe in the capital- Washington DC!!!
 At first we thought it was pity that we didn´t get the job in Myrtle Beach but in the end we are pretty excited about going to DC- beach is great but DC? Even better!!!
 We need a confirmation from the Student Agency and the american agency Intrax about hiring us, then we have to pay the rest of the money to the SA and then the last thing to do is book the plane-tickets, get visa and wait for the Day :)

 We have an agreement with HRC from June 10th to September 8th so we have to get to the USA at least 1 day before that. BUT! there was a little problem... due to the fact that I want to try to get to another university- MUNI in Brno- I need to pass the entry exams which are about 3 days before I need to start at work in DC! :) So... On Friday- June 7th I am gonna do my exams in the morning, then in the evening I am gonna make a big Good-bye Party, On Saturday 8th I am gonna pack up my things and on Sunday 9th I am going to the USA!!! :)))
   We booked the tickets on the June 9th from Vienna at 7am so we need to be there at least at 4am. At 9am we´ll be in Paris and at 10:30am we´ll fly right to Washington DC :) I hope we´ll handle those several hours in the air- I have never flown that long! Nicol is pretty scared too. But we have each other to hold our hands when scared :)
   We still don´t have the visa aproved and it will last some time for sure, but we filled all the papers Intrax sent us so it should be okay :)

All we have to do is wait for the precious day- June 9th :) ♥

Air tickets! YAHOOOO

We couldn´t wait longer... Finally Nicol, Peter and I booked out air tickets to the US!!! :)

It was sooo exciting! We had to booked it because of the lower price although we haven´t got out visa yet.
It was not cheap but it is worth the money that´s for sure! :)

So it is set! We are flying to Washington DC in June 9th 2013 in the morning and going back to reality in September 26 in the evening.

CAN´T WAIT!!! even though I am pretty scared about the looooong flight. But why there are so many sleeping pills in this world, right? :)
