The Adventures of Maika: March 2009
http://theadventuresofmaika.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
The Adventures of Maika. Sunday, March 1, 2009. Bratislava is a little confused as to what it should be doing with itself right now. Last week, it snowed almost every night (which made walking to school, through a foot of snow, really crazy! But today the snow is almost completely melted and I hear birds singing. My family tells me that Colorado has blooming flowers, and I can only hope that the grey days of winter are almost over! I bet you Minnesotans are SOO there too! Pray in a monestary. About an ho...

The Adventures of Maika: January 2009
http://theadventuresofmaika.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
The Adventures of Maika. Wednesday, January 14, 2009. Well, December came and went like a gust of wind! The greatest part of December was when my family came to visit me! The five of us spent the holiday gallivanting around Prague, Vienna, Bratislava, and Munich! And, realistically, if our gas doesn't come back (Russia cut off their supply to the Ukraine, which is the country that supplies ours), school migtht be closed because there will be no heat! We haven't been affected yet, but it is interesting to...

http://theadventuresofmaika.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
The Adventures of Maika. Tuesday, April 14, 2009. I think I mentioned, at one point, that March was going to be unwieldy and long, but it somehow seemed to slip right by! I currently sit in my flat: windows open, sun and construction noises pouring in the window, and there is a little fly friend that keeps trying to visit me. I have the day off (still Easter break), and am enjoying a little spring cleaning, relaxing, and catching up. Happy late Easter to everyone! As always, thanks for reading, share sto...

The Adventures of Maika: September 2008
http://theadventuresofmaika.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
The Adventures of Maika. Tuesday, September 30, 2008. Interesting things that have happened lately:. 1 I walked home from school one day and counted the following:. Three older ladies: two with red hair, one with purple. It is a big thing for older women to dye their hair in radical colors! One guy walking down the cobblestone street carrying a computer screen - cord dragging on the ground? There will be a picture someday because it must be seen - words can't really capture its amazingness. This, good-by...

The Adventures of Maika: November 2008
http://theadventuresofmaika.blogspot.com/2008_11_01_archive.html
The Adventures of Maika. Sunday, November 30, 2008. Ok, for a country that does not have this particular holiday, I have ended up celebrating it more times than I ever have before! I had three Thanksgiving celebrations this year! Thanksgiving #2 was with Chase and his co-workers on Thanksgiving day! It was so fun to be with families (there was an adorable little boy named Olie who is one and very stoic and likes computer keyboards) - surrounded by good food and good company. It was hard not being around ...

Tales from the Shoeless Seminarian: March 2009
http://shoelessseminarian.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Tales from the Shoeless Seminarian. Monday, March 30, 2009. That's not a mouse! My fellow PK (Pastor’s Kid) last summer, on a tour of her house, pointed to her computer and proudly proclaimed, “That’s where the PBSkids.org live! 8221; She’s three. One of the children that I babysit was so excited one day to show me a new story he was writing: “Come on! 8221; he said, and hopped up into the computer chair and opened up his file on the family computer. He was eight at the time. But I digress…. Because the ...

Tales from the Shoeless Seminarian. Saturday, November 1, 2008. 33 cans of tomato paste in the cupboard. Okay, so I know, it’s been forever since I have posted, and I do apologize! I have begun many a posts, but somehow I never seem to finish them, and they become doomed to sit in Microsoft Word files until one day I meander through my hard drive and delete them. Large, spacious, lots of cupboard space, and cupboards already stocked with canned goods from both the previous intern and my new congregation.

Tales from the Shoeless Seminarian: July 2008
http://shoelessseminarian.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html
Tales from the Shoeless Seminarian. Tuesday, July 8, 2008. As the title of my post suggests, I find myself in a period of transition. As a Lutheran seminarian from Canada at seminary in the Midwest United States, I am not unacquainted with the liminal space of transition. Yet here I am here once again, and it is not the same. . It is all extremely exciting and frightening at the same time. . Therefore, I selfishly write this blog for me as a time to reflect upon, well, whatever happens! To my right,.
