This past weekend, I went on a trip to the Cliffs of Moher and the Burren. At first, it was windy, foggy, and cold, but after a few hours it cleared up and the view was absolutely breathtaking. The past week had been hard and long, but seeing this view made everything worth it. THIS was what I came to Ireland for.
After the long day, I was able to get a good night's rest before the first week of classes started.
Classes have been going well, and I'm quite excited about a few of them. For those of you who are wondering, I'm taking Restoration and Augustan literature (after the Renaissance, before the Romantics), Irish Traditional Music (where I'll hopefully be learning some dance!), Probability and Statistics, and Ireland: Revolution and Independence (a history course!). Thursdays and Fridays I only have one class, so I'm super excited about that part. ;)
Finally, on Wednesday, Ryan, Andrew, Emily, and I went out for our new Wednesday night tradition: pizza!! It's fairly cheap and super close, not to mention fantastic tasting!!
One last note: As some of you may have already noticed, I've added another page to my blog. It has a slideshow of all of my pictures so far, and it will be updated as the semester moves along.
Until next time,
Love and Peace!
I'm not sure what would be more exciting: the scenery or the class load. I think I'm a nerd. ;)
