Sorry I haven't updated in awhile. Quite honestly, my week has consisted mainly of just going to class, so nothing too exciting to write home about. My friend Amy told me that she didn't care if my life is boring, that I need to update my blog anyways, so here I am :)
This was the first real week of classes and I really enjoy most of them so far. A couple of my classes focus on Irish society and history. I'm also taking a class about castles throughout Europe. It's sort of boring but we get to take a class field trip to many different castles. Classes here are very different. There is no busy real or any real form of examination until the end of the course. Most of my courses have one big paper due at the end of the semester that my whole grade is based on- a little scary!
This weekend we've been hosting 15 (yes 15!) BC people who are studying in Cork, Ireland. It's been sort of crazy but really fun. It's interesting trying to fit 30 people (Galway group & Cork group) all in the same pub!
Here are some highlights of the week:
- Going out for one of my roommate's 21st birthday
- Booking my plane ticket to London to visit Chrissy in February!
- Finding a bar that played the Pat's game, even though we lost...
- Discovering that my university has a college bar (BC should really think of adding this)
- The pubs, as always
- Having visitors
- Joining my school's surf club! Yes, I know this is ridiculous but I'm doing it!
Here is a picture of my room...no, I didn't pick out the comforter :)
