This land is my land

Hungary is a land of procrastinators. The semester officially started yesterday, but many professors are still trying to come up with a syllabus or even a schedule for their courses, some professors are out of the office until tomorrow or next week, and some decided at the last moment to take their sabbatical this semester. Sigh. But I guess that means I fit right in:)

On the other hand, Hungary is not a land of tea drinkers. I have spent a good part of the past week (the times when I wasn't reading Wheel of Time or trying to contact my professors) looking for a tea pot...with no success. I may end up spending absurd amounts of money on a Zsolnay teapot (the Zsolnay family is famous for their glaze--it's recipe is a well-guarded family secret), which means I will end up with two fancy teapots in my possession.
