Day 51: Kickin' it in the Klub

Filming in the clubs went very well last night, apart from the flashing strobe light making the footage look a little bit dodgy. But we couldn't have exactly asked the manager to turn it off - we're not MTV - so we have to make do with what we have. The funniest thing was when the other intern was walking around with the camera and, because it's a DSLR (google it), people just assumed he was the club's photographer. Girls automatically posed as soon as they saw him. He had to take their photo. How can you say no in a situation like that?

Whilst gradually overcoming horrible flashbacks of losing my keys the last time I was out *shudder*, we went to three clubs in total and to one of them twice. Ah, the things we do for work, eh? I think I might actually have the best job ever. It's a shame I'm leaving in less a month! Hmm, I wonder if we could "film" in the clubs every week...?

By far the best club of the night.

I'm always trying to keep as busy as possible. I have decided that I will use this weekend to achieve one of my aims for the week: to meet up with some Latvian friends I made at the beginning of my stay. Like I've said before, I've been to the big city, lived in the small town and now the only thing left to see to get a full perspective on Latvia is the countryside (the forest on Midsummer Day does not count).

I had made plans to visit my boss's "country house" today, that is when I eventually woke up and recovered from last night. The weather looked decent, a bit of sun and a few clouds here and there. I was raring to go! However, my boss predicted that there was rain coming from Riga, and rightly so. My countryside adventure has been pushed forward to tomorrow.

With all this time to think, read and generally reflect on life on a lovely Saturday afternoon, is it bad that I've already created a shopping list for when I get back to England? A girl has needs!
