First prints and questions

Assembled the kit, calibrated and did some small prints thats to me looks good:

First question, is normal that the printer during calibration process leave behind small filaments blocks:

Second, now I have some issues printing long parts:
As you can see the right corner is lower than the left and is also messy:

Do I need a new calibration?

Thanks in advance for help.

First question:

prusa-i3-kit-building-calibrating-first ... tml#p33349

original-prusa-i3-mk2-f23/dealing-with- ... t5582.html

Second question:

That certainly means something is wrong. Are your axes perpendicular?

Re: the first question and his links, I just asked the same here http://shop.prusa3d.com/forum/prusa-i3-kit-building-calibrating-first-print-main-f6/extruder-dribble-t5685.html

Basically "it's normal", the first link has a gcode strategy to mitigate it.
