School was good, but nothing new. We have mid-terms tomorrow and wednesday - That could be news.
The Dail was boring. I copied my Td's Taxes for two days and ran some errands. A far cry from the excitement of last week. This week will be the budget meetings though. That should be fun
Thursday night we all went out for Karaoke. This was dangerous. Needless to say I was coaxed into singing. Toxic by Brittany Spears... cause I'm a class act.
Friday I met up with my friend Katie Brockage and her two roommates in Black Rock (between here and Dublin). She's from DePaul but will be at Trinity all year. JEALOUS!!!!! She's got a flat down town and sounds like she's having a great time.
Saturday studied all day (much like Friday) and met up with two guys from the program down town. We tried to go to Octoberfest (the Australian had no Idea what a bratwurst was), but failed. They had the whole thing on a giant floating island, just off of the river. Needless to say not very many people could get on. We went to go hear some music at what is now one of my favorite places I've been to. There's just something about an Irishman with a guitar harmonica, singing sweet home Chicago that is quite simply brilliant.
Today I went to a place called Powers Court. It's a huge estate/gardens from around the 17th century I think. The movie Count of Monte Cristo was filmed there. When you walk in there is this beutifull terraced expanse that has a pathway down the middle with two winged horses at the bottom, a lake and a fountain. Then there's Japanese gardens to one side, a english garden to the other, and pathways for miles. It was amazing. We had lunch there - I brought mine thank god ( a box of apple juice was 1.85!). Came back and studied all night.
Starting Tursday it's going to be crazy. I might go to Milan, or the west, or the North of Dublin from Friday to Sunday. Monday-Thursday I'm in Paris. Friday-Monday I'm in Dingle/Killarney. Then on Friday I'm off to Belfast and Derry! CRAZY!!!!!!!!
So not much this week, but coming up is chaos.
I'll update more even if nothings going on this week.
