back to where it all began

well im back in ireland
its just after two am and i should probably be sleeping, but as fate would have it i never can sleep when i ought to
and i did end up taking a four hour nap today which probably didnt help things!

so the flight from seattle to chicago was grand
slept most the way through and had the window seat which is always a good pillow.
chicago to dublin, however, was not so good. well, the flight was fine all in all, it was the two and a half hour delay which was really annoying. to make matters worse, it wasnt a delay in the airport, but rather in the plane itself. no fun.
buuut i sat next to a cute guy so it was okay. he was kind of awkward but it was somehow endearing. lol

i finally got to dublin and kate called. the girls had been at the airport for AGES! i felt so bad
but it was fine and i got through customs w/o too much of a wait.
we came back to my apartment and hung out for a while,
then i unpacked and slept before the girls came back over to hang out after dinner
ummm...i have a lot of clothes. and shoes. my bag was 3 pounds overweight. go figure. haha.
did some decorating so that was good
heading into the city with kate and rach tomorrow to do a bit of shopping before going to kates for a movie.
im preeetty excited.

its so good to be back. but, as caroline put it, its hard living in two separate places, because youre always going to miss someone. bummer deal there. but i guess in life you cant have everything.
silverdale, bellingham, dublin...they all feel like home. well, i guess i'll just have to travel constantly to visit them all! sounds good to me :)

well i booked my ticket for amsterdam the other day. so thats exciting.
i want to go to greece
and spain
maybe portugal this semester

oh and i have the easiest schedule ever. seven hours of class a week. what a joke. makes me feel bad for rachel who has 25 hours. maybe i'll have a look for a job. i have to stay busy or i'll go crazy! haha.

its so weird this semester without all the americans from last semester. i cant just walk next door to say hi to leslie. or go see mallori two houses down. that sucks. a lot. lets just hope these new americans are fun. they have a lot to live up to! :)

well, now im just rambling so id better end this.
im sure i'll have more interesting things to write about once school begins. or maybe not. its a toss up.
but ive got to do a pic update sometime here soon. im terrible at that. obviously.

missing you all back home!!!
:)
