The Comeback Dog

Second to last day...I'm ready for this to be done!!!

Somewhat of a standard day considering that we were leaving in two days. We had our Ballet final in the morning, which was pretty anticlimactic. We began we by practicing our dance in front of the other group as a warm up. Then for the final, two other people joined us and that was it. Rah!

I spent my last lunch time in the yard of the Kremlin and I was writing in my journal when a bear ran over to me and picked up my pepsi bottle and started to play with it. I then realized that my peripheral vision is terrible and it was actually a doggy.

Now I've been comparing pictures and I still can't tell, but this looked EXACTLY like the dog that followed Jason and Annabelle back to the dorm earlier in the trip.

Either way, he was a cute little pup and he really wanted to play. Sadly though he was really dirty and I didn't want to get fleas or some random dog disease from him. But man, he sure did try...he tried to snag my Pepsi bottle again, along with my journal and then took to licking my face...gross.

After he got done with that, he then repeated the same activity with the girl sitting a little ways away. He must've gotten tuckered out though and decided I was much cooler, so he came back to me and plopped down for a nap. So cute!!! I wrote in my journal for a bit longer and then quietly snuck away to avoid the heartache of leaving him.

We also got to see our LAST RUSSIAN PERFORMANCE!!! This was mostly good in my eyes cause I am theatred out right now...looking forward to a little break before school starts back up in August. It was a student show we saw though and it was pretty amazing. It was actually their final exams and I thought they were phenomenal...but they all probably got C's and D's as they are much MUCH tougher on their students.

Again it was one of the hottest 3 hours of my life! The Russians apparantly haven't found the happy medium between hot and cold as it's either balls ass hot or cold as hell in the rooms.

I likened this session in the audience to a 10 hour International American Airlines flight. Yay...
