Miscellany

Looking through my phone photos, I don't seem to have done anything particularly interesting. However I did do some miscellaneous things!

I saw Ironman 3 [vasember 3]. It was in English with Hungarian subtitles, but it turns out that dubbing English movies is a pretty common practice in Hungary. I later saw Star Trek: Into Darkness [Star Trek: Sötétségben] which, interestingly, did not have any Hungarian subtitles. Also you were expected to buy 3d glasses and then keep them for next time. How European!
Also, turns out that they do assigned seats in movie theaters. Novel!

Where have I seen this before?

I saw this guy on my way to BSM for my Quantum class. The sign reads "kiadó [for rent]". Seems legit.

An anti-smoking ad! In Hungary! What!

Went to a pasta bar. They had homemade pasta and these guys at every table. Basil and rosemary plants. So classy.

This smiling group of people appears everywhere at AIT.

A Qian-sized Sprite for the plane ride home

  1. OK, I get the message: the "Qian sized Sprite" symbolizes, in a very subtle way, the end of the journey. The adventures are over, Odysseus is back home. Duly and sadly noted. (By the way: what the heck is "Quin sized"? 3 out of the 10 hits returned by Google on this comes from this blog.)

    Anyways, the general lesson from the blog seems to be obvious: your study abroad term was mainly a wild touristic expedition with a strong touch of gastronomic excitement...

    Take care!
