Thursday:
Well, Thursday was an interesting day. I woke up early for no reason and went to my orientation at whatever time. It was abnormally boring, but in ways, rather useful. There were a lot of kids in there, the kind of kids who are on every campus around the world. The kind of quiet ones that know they're smarter than everyone else, but have exceptionally low social interaction with most people. Everywhere. So I sat through a few hours of being told how the school works, and then they gave us a social break. I don't like those kind of things, it makes people try to be more outgoing than usual, and then they come off as fake, in a way, but no one ever really remembers it anyway. Wow, that sounded kind of harsh.
We took a tour, the tour guide was above good looking, and I got stuck with the kid from north carolina. God, how I wish he would stop strapping his back pack straps around his waist when there's nothing heavy to carry in his bag. Then I had dinner with my friend Keelan, she's great. Then I have a pint of guinness in the bar, a very nice loungey leather bar. it didn't taste bad, but it didn't taste great, but I needed to try it. I had to!
So later that night I go home, and I get an unexpected visitor late into the night.
Friday:
I skip orientation because I woke up at 10:30, not that I wanted to go to begin with, but this is a good start to a great day. I meet up with my friend Harriet who lives in england, and it was really great to see her. We took a walk around the town and had dinner in the kilmurry hotel.
Saturday:
Harriet and I took the bus into limerick city to try to find me some waterproof shoes and a bit of a warmer jacket. No luck. We come home that night and I make cookies. The cookies were awful! They came as a powder mix in a box, kind of like cake, but the chips and stuff were already inside, and I just had to add butter and water. Not good stuff.
Sunday:
I fell out of a castle.
