Orientation

hey guys!!!

I made it :-) after no sleep and walking through the entire town of rainy Cork with my 50 lb suit case, a back pack the size of me and another bag, I made it to my apartment!!!! Maria and I live on the third floor right below Andy with one other roomate. Her name is Lauren and she goes to Loyola, Maryland.

Our first stop in town was the phone store and next was the liquor store. A case of budweiser was close to 40 dollars!! We chose the cheap wine instead.  We went to our first pub last night which was right across the river, near our apartment. There was a group of guys playing music. I have heard we will have many more encounters like this.

Today we had orientation where we got overwhelmed with the list of things to do. We are about to go on a tour of the campus. Tonight the student union is putting on events for us. We will start at the on campus bar and move our way to An Brog, another bar in town.

more posting later :-)

xoxo

  2. Glad to here the pubs and liquor stores are the priority! I'd be the same way. So how many students are a part of the study abroad group?
