So I'm sitting here at SEAD in between class and Zero Balancing session. A ton has happened since the first day. Aha--let me share it with you.
Yesterday, (Wednesday) was quite a long day. We started the day with contemporary with Zuna, then yoga, then ballet with Libby. Lunch break. Then anatomy and theory. By far, the most fascinating class of the day was theory. That will come later.
Contemporary doesn't get easier, but I feel more and more aware of necessity and clear movements. The first day, I was just trying to basically imitate Zuna's movements, but now I understand how to put the movements into my own body. Suddenly, it makes so much more sense in context.
Yoga here is intense. Very different from Tara Marie's "vinyasa flow" (or however you spell it). Poses are more the basis of Jelka's yoga. There are several positions that I can't even figure out. Insane. But awesome.
Libby's ballet class is the same.
There was a miscommunication about which classes to go, at what times, etc. And so, mostly everyone went home after ballet. However, I stuck around for anatomy just out of curiosity. The discussion for the day was about the transverse arch in the foot--the shape of the "knuckles" in the foot. Their anatomy class is much more functional in the way that it isn't in such a classroom setting. They talked about how the transverse arch relates to releves and neutral positions. Interesting stuff. And I was really able to concentrate on that part of the foot today in contemporary.
And on to theory. I don't exactly know what I was expecting in that class. There were only two of the exchange students in attendance (also because of the level mix-up): Ben and I. Jelka, our yoga teacher from the morning, was the teacher for this class as well. She is extremely intellegent--working in London on some video dance stuff, and she has like two masters degrees...awesome. We got into a great discussion about dance and movement from a philosophical standpoint. How early philosophers classified the body and mind as two separate entities...and how this relates to the mathematical Mobius Strip...etc etc. It was awesome.
Anywho, it's 5:17, so I've got about 10 minutes until the next rehearsal. David flies in tomorrow for the weekend--I'll be sure to take a lot of pictures.

Memorial Day--not a holiday in Austria
Today was our first real day of classes. I wish I could say that I had an amazing attention span, but I could not focus at all in ballet.
Yesterday was a relaxation day. After our intense day-trip to Munich, Hollis, Kristin and I decided to take it easy. I woke up around noon, then proceeded to make breakfast/lunch. We lounged on the bank of the Salzach for a couple hours. I brought Pride and Prejudice with me, although I only read a couple chapters. It was pleasant to just lay there and take it all in. We returned back to our dorm before heading out for some dinner.
At first, we wanted to find something close. I suggested a cafe that I saw by the river, not too far from our place. However, the cafe only served beverages and desserts...we'll save that for another day. We walked all over old-town, trying to find something within our price range when we finally decided on a restaurant near our dorm. I decided to try something Austrian--which wasn't a mistake...we'll just say it wasn't my favorite Austrian dish. It was some sort of a dumpling with peppermint on the inside. I don't even like candy canes...
oh well, it was something new.
After dinner, some ice cream and park-playing. Then sleep.
The group that I'm in had contemporary first before ballet, which was confusing for my body this morning. Our contemporary class, taught by Zuma, was mostly spent doing floorwork. Needless to say, it was really awesome, but pretty difficult. Ballet was...interesting. I'm not convinced by our current ballet teacher.
The rest of the day was spent buying groceries and hanging out in the apartment. None of us really wanted to venture outside because it was so hot. I talked to Dave and Kristy a couple times on skype. Also did all of my laundry. Yay!
Tomorrow seems to be a busier day with rehearsal in the evening. We'll see how it goes. Goodnight.

Candids of Munich
Gazebo in the English Gardens
National Theater Munich
Home of the Bavarian State Opera and the Bavarian State Ballet
Bavarian countryside
To Munich for the Weekend
It's been a while since my last post--life has been busy!
We finished out the week with a great set of rehearsals. We now have a concept to our piece, and I know that it will all fit together pretty coherently in the end.
Couple days ago, a few of us collectively decided to visit Munich. We all have Eurail passes, so why not? Friday night was spent furiously washing necessary clothes needed for the short trip. The strange thing about Austria--and a lot of Europe as I gather--is that there are no drying machines. So I had to find any and all appropriate surfaces of the apartment to hang my wet clothes. By the morning, they still weren't dry, but oh well.
This morning, I woke up around 6:45 to finish packing. I packed enough for two days, as we were intending to stay the entire weekend. Hollis, Kristin, and I left together for the train station and met Amelia and Maggie there. Our train departed for Munich at 9:00 AM.
The ride was beautiful! It was only about an hour and a half, but most of it was spent winding through the German countryside (Salzburg is right on the border of Austria and Germany). Every small town we passed on the train had a church and steeple at it's center. We arrived in Munich around 10:40, with thousands of other futbol fans. Apparently there was a big game between Stuttgart and some other European team. It felt like pre-USC football game all over the city.
We walked around a lot. I can't even remember most of the places we went to. We walked through the Twin Towers Cathedral--the largest cathedral in Munich. Several side-streets and the English Gardens (comparable to Central Park in New York). We found lunch at Cafe Munich. Original, eh? Being in Germany, I decided to order a veil schnitzel--delicious. About an hour after we sat down, people piled into the cafe to watch the game. It was great people-watching.
We walked back towards the center of town after lunch, stopping in another garden (don't know the name). Gorgeous views of the Bavarian Museum!! At this point, we were all re-thinking whether staying an extra day would be worth it. We finally decided that we would return to Salzburg that night--meaning that we could have an extra day of travel on our Eurail pass for another trip. The map showed a viewpoint at St Peter's Cathedral; so without doubt we paid the 1 euro to climb up 350 stairs (or something like that). The staircases were incredibly narrow...But when we got to the top...!!!!
We were able to see the entire city from one vantage point! It was awesome!!
We headed back toward the train station, grabbing some well-deserved ice-cream along the way. A few wanted to try the local beer. I tried the peach iced-tea. It was pleasant to sit at the side-walk cafe, witnessing bachelor parties and after-game festivities. Finally, we went to the train station and boarded our train to Salzburg.
It was an exhausting day, but completely well worth it. Now: sleep. Later: sleep.

Grocery Store Hopping
The first day of rehearsals.
ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! To be able to dance again!
Got up around 10:00 with a grand plan to go lounge around the river and read my book for a couple of hours. But, I also really wanted to make some hard-boiled eggs. By the time I cooked them, I only had enough time to get ready and leave for rehearsal.
Admidst the hard-boiling, I realized that tonight was the night that I had to make dinner for the four of us. Without an oven. I didn't realize until then that everything I've ever made came from the oven. Cookies, brownies, baked goods...until now. I sent a crazy e-mail out to my family begging for recipe ideas. Tacos would have been great if there were taco-shells. Same with meatballs--but its no fun without rice-a-roni. I decided that I would figure it out in the grocery store.
Rehearsal was great, even though it was slightly unorganized. It's difficult to compile something with 10 other people. Don't get me wrong, I love working with everyone--it's just hard to find a common idea. However, we found a way of working that pleased everyone. Now we will have to piece the concept together.
And on to the grocery store...which gets easier and easier each time. Chicken, spaghetti noodles, and pasta sauce. Sounds like a meal to me! I realized when I got home, however, that I didn't buy enough food for four. I went back out to another grocery store by the train station. Billa extreme. The largest grocery store I've been in so far in Salzburg! But we're still talking small.
Anyways, I somehow made a good dinner! Parents, aren't you proud? I should have taken pictures. I will save that recipe for a later date.
Tomorrow we have ballet at 10:00, then a meeting with Susan, then another rehearsal. Depending on how late I get to bed tonight (it's pretty late already), I will make some breakfast and walk along the river a little bit in the morning.
Alright. It's late. Guten nacht--for all of you in Salzburg. Guten Abend--for all of you on the East Coast. Guten Tag--for all of you in California.

Beautiful Sunny Day!
Got up today around noon. Very refreshing!
Made some oatmeal with brown sugar and fresh strawberries. See parents, I am eating well.
For the first time in a couple of days, the sun was streaming through our apartment windows--without a cloud in the sky. It actually hit about 80 degrees Farenheit, which is hot for Salzburg. Hollis, Ben, Kristin, and I decided to wander around a little bit.
First stop was some ice cream. Mmmmm. Vanilla. Walked through the gorgeous Mirabell gardens again. Sat by the Salzach for a little bit, soaking in the sun (I did get a little sunburnt...I need my SPF 45). We then crossed to the other side of the river to the Mulln Church used in "The Sound of Music". We followed the streets down, walked through a tunnel, and back through Getreidegasse, where the cast-iron street signs hang above each little store. Coming back, we all decided that pretzels sounded like a good idea. And they were. Delicious.
The picture below shows St. Peter's Abbey, the church that we saw a couple of days ago.

Day on the Town
We woke up this morning ready to go up and out.
At 11:00, we left the Mirabell side of the river and set off for the "historic" district. We crossed the Salzach and had a lovely walk along the river--looking at the buildings built into the mountain, the bikers riding along, and the local dogs.
We crossed about a dozen squares filled with tourists and locals alike. We came across Mozart's birthplace (with an ice-cream shop on the lower level...). We haven't gone yet, but I'm sure we will. The whole time I was equipped with a camera, although I only took 8 pictures. I was just amazed at the sights.
This was just the first run-through of old-Salzburg. Passed through the squares, a few local shops, a gorgeous Catholic church, and the marketplace. After walking around for a while, Hollis, Kristin, and I decided to go for an all-European lunch: Hot Dogs and Coca-Colas. I tried to communicate the entire transaction in German...and almost did! When she asked me about condiments, I had to go English. I did learn later that ketchup in German is pronounced "ketchup". Future reference...
Walked along the river for a while more, apprehensive about going back to our apartment. Finally saw the Salzburg Museum and decided to take a walk around it. It cost 4 euros...about $5.50. Not bad. I don't exactly know what I was expecting to find--but it was interesting to compare the romantic view of Salzburg before the 1900's to now. Interesting to note that the city of Salzburg's main source of income is tourism.
Today was also the day that all the other exchange students from NYU were arriving. We had planned to pick up our friends at the train station, which was about a 10 minute walk from our residence. Before getting to the train station, we all decided on some ice-cream to wash down our hot dogs. Single scoop chocolate for .80 cents?? That's a deal! I'll probably be going back there for sure.
We met Maggie and Ben at the train station, but we weren't sure about Amelia. Her flight at JFK was delayed and we were concerned that she didn't make her connection. Kristin and I waited at the train station for a couple of hours before we decided that it was probably okay that we headed back home. This "no cell-phone" thing is difficult. I don't like it.
Ah--funny story. While we were waiting for Ben, this old man came up to us and said:
"My professor once told me this. When you return back to the States, remember that theives and businessmen all pray to the same god." Crazies exist here too. I guess Salzburg isn't as different as New York...
Anywho, Kristin and I came back and I made myself a delicious grilled cheese sandwich. Mmmm.
It's midnight here, 6:00 PM in New York and 3:00 PM in California. Calling it a night.

Mayonaisse and Peanut Butter? That's all I need...
Today was an interesting day.
We woke up around 10:00 AM. Jet-lag is gone?
We intended on taking another class at SEAD. Today was contemporary--they call their modern classes contemporary. Modern, to them, is a structured technique class like Graham or Limon.
The teacher this morning assumed we were the auditioning students until we introduced ourselves as the exchange students...when they responded, "Ah! The Americans!" Although I felt put out of my element in that class, it was great to get to know some of the other SEAD students.
We decided to check out another grocery store today--try out our luck finding the staples to life, basically. We rejoiced when we found mayonaisse and peanut butter! Also surprising: they had Special K (with strawberries) and oreos. But we tried to be as un-American and inconspicuous as possible...buying only German products. We walked home and made lunch. It was great to have mayonaisse in my tuna sandwich again.
Tomorrow, everyone else arrives to Salzburg via train or plane. We are going to pick Amelia, Ben, and Maggie at the train station after we explore the other side of the river. Mozart Plaz! More pictures to come. For now, I'm heading to bed. It's 12:45 PM here, 6:45 in New York, and 3:45 in California. Guten Nacht.

The First Post
Hello!
Welcome to my first blog post! I think this is a great way to connect with you all and tell you about my foreign adventures.
It was certainly a long trip.
We left for JFK on Monday around noon-time. We flew Lufthansa--not quite as large as the A-380, but comparable in size. Although it was a 7-1/2 hour flight, it seemed to go by quickly sitting next to two good friends, Hollis and Kristin. We landed in Frankfurt around 6:00 AM (midnight in New York and 9PM in California).
In the Frankfurt Airport, my passport was stamped for the first time!! Woo hoo! The layover was made comfortable by a free Wall Street Journal and a granola bar. An hour later, we were ready to board our plane to Salzburg. We took a shuttle bus to our tiny 75-seat propeller plane. There were only 5 stairs we had to climb to board. Smallest plane I've ever been on.
The plane ride was only 45 minutes to Salzburg. Irene, an administrator from SEAD, met us at the airport and we packed all of our suitcases in her tiny "euro-car".
It was great to finally get to our dorm and unpack. We are living in a really amazing studio with a private kitchenette and bathroom; and a really sweet view of an apartment garden (we hear birds chirping all the time...totally different from New York). We went out to get some euros, to eat some lunch, and to find SEAD.
Today, we woke up super early--still jet lagged. We picked up some Austrian pastries from a bakery down the street and headed for SEAD for a ballet class. Afterwards, we had our first adventure in an Austrian grocery store...I'm glad that groceries have pictures of food on them. Otherwise, I would have ended up with tartar sauce or something. Ah--and I don't know how to make a tuna sandwich without mayonnaise. I'll figure it out.
Anyways--that's a lot for a first post. It's almost midnight here, so I'm going to call it a night. I'll try to type a few times a week to keep connected. And I'll try to figure out how to post pictures too. Oh oh! And I have skype now, so I would love to chat with you!
