Boys Boys Boys

I'm never going to survive all these cute Irish boys. I've encountered way too many gorgeous Gaels - sorry mom I might have to break my promise and fall in love with quite a few of them.

Today we had advisory sessions for all the classes we want to take. Basically as boring as it sounds, but I suppose important. KitKat and I took a tour of campus together with one of the student gov V-P's and let's just say I'm never going to get to my classes. The campus is huuuge and all the buildings look alike. I'm sure I'll get adjusted and figure it out no problem, but the first few weeks are going to be hell.

Then it was lunch time - I got the delicious Irish vegetable soup - I just need to get my hands on their brown bread. Oh and crazy - they charge for their ketchup, mayo, and jam packs - 15 cents. I was insulted!

Afterwards - we hit town again and found an amazing mall - very similar to the Chelsea Mall in NYC. We hit Penney's - a store that could be likened to Kohls I guess - and it's going to be dangerous. Great stuff on the cheap. Of course like eejits we bought too much stuff and had to walk the three miles or so home. And we stopped in a grocery store - Dunne's. Two broken bags and very very sore feet later, we made it home alive. I feel like a bum because we haven't hit the pub scene yet - but honestly you try walking at least ten miles everyday carrying heavy packs and try to walk the two + miles back into town for drinks. I'd never make it back! Tomorrow night though - it's a done deal!! That's all for now. Sorry no excitement!!
