Transfers! (9/26/16)

This week was pretty great! Okay so first of all there were these sisters in Gjakova, Kosovo that got arrested! I guess this lady called the cops on them after they tracted into her house so the cops came and accused them of not having "registered to live in the city" or something so they got in trouble with the cops ha it was crazy! So anyway, we were told that we needed to get registered to live in our city or whatever, so we go to the police station and ask them and they give us a bunch of blank stares. They really had no idea what we were asking for so they tell us to go to another office who tells us to go to another office who tells us to go back to the police station. So then the police station made a bunch of calls then they were like okay you need to go to this place! So we go there and they had no idea what we were talking about so this guy told us to take a number and there was a huge line and it was literally just to get our question answered! So we figured it was just a lost cause. I figured if they arrested we will probably be in jail for a shorter time than we would trying to figure out how the crap to get registered with the city!! 

We also went to Macedonia this week! The drive there was so awful. There was a lot of traffic so we were on the road for so long. Then my companion realized that he didn't have his passport so we had to turn around and drive all the way back!! Man it was hard haha. Then when we finally got to the Macedonian border they stopped us and told us that we didn't have the proper paper work. I was like dude what the heck! I have been in Macedonia like 5 times with this paperwork what do you mean it isn't right? So we ended up having to spend 50 Euro to get what we needed. It was so stupid! But once we were in Macedonia it was really good. We did some street contacting and stuff, I always feel so hopeless when I talk to people but I got a few phrases down! We also played soccer in Macedonia it was really fun. 

So at the end of the week we got transfer calls! I am getting transferred back to Albania! A city called Fier. I am pretty excited to be down there. It is going to be a very big difference from Prishtina! It will be an adventure that is for sure.
