wow is all i can say. this past weekend was absolutly amazing. if you have checked out facebook you can see that we went on a tour of western ireland on saturday. it was absolutly amazing. it rained the whole time until we reached the cliffs of moher. which were gorgeous. as i was hiking up the huge hill with 50 mph winds trying to blow me off the side i finally felt like i wasnt in the usa anymore. it sounds so corny but i really really felt it. looking out over the irish countryside it finally felt different. it didnt feel like just a vacation anymore, it felt like this is where i belong, at least for a while. it was just amazing to look out over this cliff and not be amazed by the beauty of it all of the realization that i was on the other side of the atlantic. its somthing you cannot simply realize from pictures you need to actually experience it. (**hint hint** come visit). as i was getting back on the bus, with the irish ballads playing through the bus speakers i couldnt help but get goose bumps.
other than the cliffs we also saw a tomb, which was super old i know its BC but i cant remember how old. we also saw some sheep, super super super cute. and we also went to a cave. cool but so not worth the 7 euro. along the way we looked out over the country land of ireland through bus windows and got a glimpse at the non urban areas. they are so pretty. i need to find a nice irish boy to marry and we can live there.
Other than the exciting cliffs adventure nothing else of note really happened. I got kicked out of a bar at 2 am on saturday becuase they made us turn of teh eagles game and go home:( booo and they lost. what a crappy weekend for football. maybe next year boys. on sunday i was a bum and watched like 5 hours of grey's anatomy and went to the super market. last night though i tried to make pancakes and it was a super bust. apparently their pancake mix is super super thin and it made more of a soggy creape. whatev the sausage and eggs were still good. you should see me, i'm somthing of a suzie homemaker. ok im off i need to walk home and do some wash before me next class. miss you all!

May the road rise up to meet you. May the wind always be at your back. May the sun shine warm upon your face, and rains fall soft upon your fields. And until we meet again, May God hold you in the palm of His hand.

first thing's first, if u meet and marry an irish boy you'll live here and visit ireland to see his family and vacation, u can't possible live outside the us, or the east coast for that matter, i couldn't live without u that way, so i strictly forbid it. Second, it wasn't such a bad football weekend the Colts won!!! altho. i was rooting for ur eagles if it makes u feel better and thinking of u lots, even tho they lost i'm glad u got to see the game and glad ur loving ireland and wishing i was there with u. think that covers all bases! ttys
I showed my mom your facebook pics, she loved them. She was like I bet thats the cliffs of Moher, and I was like idk, maybe, turns out she was right. Anyway I'm wayyyy too excited about coming to visit you in like wow two months from now! Crazy, right? We ordered our house too, or at least we're working on it. Anyway have a splendid time! oh and find an O'Brien, O'Shea, or O'Donnell to marry and we might be related!
you just typed "before me next class" not "before MY next class". you're turning all irish already! i'm so glad you're having a great time. but i miss you LOADS too.
