That’s right! I went walking!
Yeah! So the Tartu Film Festival is this week, and they set up a giant, inflatable screen in the town square and showed some movies. The theme is love, which of course explains the Kirsten Dunst period piece science-drama extravaganza that they showed. I didn’t have much interest in it, but there was a (film) festive atmosphere in Tartu and the weather was nice, so I wandered around with my homies and took some pictures.
Not from last night but cool nonetheless are the pictures of my pesumaja and juuksur. On Saturday I went and asked the hotel dude if I could get some laundry done, and he said yes. LAst time I was at a hostel in Tartu, a load cost about four bucks, so I figured that in this hotel, maybe eight or ten. No. The prices were similar to the fancy hotel I stayed at in Oslo, aka ridiculous. Like 3.50 for a pair of socks. So I got directions to the place (the same place that washes the hotel linens, incidentally), and I got my clothes done. They weren’t ready until today though, so I had to go buy some new underwear and socks. (SMOG is the name of a popular brand of undergarments, sold exclusively at the store New Yorker. Unrelated, presumably, to the magazine.)
On the way back, I got my haircut. As some may know, I have a thing for getting my hair cut in different countries. Unfortunately for my pocket full of silly stories, but fortunately for my hair, the barbress spoke English. Easy enough. Also, I saw a V40 on my walk home. I took a photo of it, believe it or not.
In other news, I only have three days of class left! What the heck? Then who knows what, followed by confusion, regret, denial, embarrassment, and a flight out of London on the 24th. Still not sure if I’m gonna spend more time in Estonia or go to Finland or Germany or Lithuania or whatever, but we’ll see in the next couple days. In the meantime, I’ve got some dialoogid to tõlkima and then I have to magama because I am väsinud. See if you can figure that one out sõnaraamatuta.
Great post! Live large, winter is coming!
