Zatlanka - The best secondary school ever

Today I´ll write about Gymnázium Na Zatlance. It´s secondary school in Prague situated on Smíchov in part called Anděl.
In my opinion it´s one of the best schools ever.
Originaly it´s a science school, nowadays it´s more about languages and social sciences such as history, psychology, politology, literature etc.
There´s lots of realy good teachers. If I can compare with other schools the teachers are more friendly, not comunistic, really helpfull, really believing to students abilities, but few of exeptions.
The school is from 10th class to 14th class, for four years. You can get there from 9th class of second stage of primary school.
The main goal of this school is to prepare you for the most improtant exam in czech republic called "Maturita" and I think it more or less works.
Some magazine wrote about our school that is the second best school in our republic. It has the second most graduates admissed to university.
I think the school has really work throught the "Maturita" preparation. In the last year before the exam lost of subects are ust gone and instead of it students got optional seminars which should prepare them for the thinks they want be examed from. So in forth grade without history, geography, physics, and chemistry, just biology and social sciences are in the last grade but only for half a year so you can focus on the exam, and what life would it be if you do not pair about philosophy and genetics.
From my personal view I would appreciate for example english conversation lessons, which are really enjoyable (and that´s not anus alpinism Sheldon, i really enjoy lessons with u :D). I also enjoy our chzech lessons, not so much grammar and lost of literature. Zatlanka is simply fun. In my brothers school it seems that the time freez at year 1970 in deep comunism, but in our school everyone is friendly, for example once i was waiting for my lesson start, reading Edgar Allan
Poes Tales, when headmistress passed around, probably on toilet, when she was coming back she looked at me and started to chat with me about romanticism and literature, I was kind of nervous about her, cause she is headmistress, but it was really clever and fun chat about romantic literature, can you tell that a same think can heppen on other schools?

My favorite movie - Domino

So, I want to speak about movie called Domino. The movie was very valued, but it never got a price, like oscar or think like this.
The movie is set in USA - Los Angeles, sometimes in Britain, but only in few flash backs in memories of main character, in nineghties but I am nor sure about the time.
The main character called Domino Harvey played Keira Knightley, in the movie stars also Mickey Rourke and Edgar Ramirez like bounty hunters, who cooperated with Domino. In other characters stars for example Lucy Liu, Mo´Nique or Delroy Lindo. The characters really suits the actors so most of the dialogues and the scenes looks really realistic. The movie is directed by Tony Scott and writen by Richard Kelly. It´s really impresive that the movie is based on a real story. I can´t believe that shit like this can heppen to someone.
The main story is confession of a girl from high society who is poisoned from the people around her and the things which heppen to her so one day she said herself  I want to change somethink so she became bountey hunter. One day her mother, she grew up with, takes her with her new friends to a guy who wants a new television show, so they made show about Domino. Then they got a case about a big robbery, and that was the begining of the end, how Domino said. The story is kind of uncathcable till this moment but it ends in a high building, when everybody shooting on the others and at the end just Domino survives.
I like the plot cause it was crude, without playing on something and with the kind of real shit heppens moments. I realy like the atmosphere of that movie. The contrast between the beauty of Domino and the bountey hunters, the society, the psychology of all of the characters. The ones which should be disgusting and the ones which shouldn´t.
The sound track was as good as the plot. Kind of rap underground music in contrast with action and serious theme in contrast with dramatical silence. Just perfection.
