2 more days!

HI GUYS! warning: i am not going to type correctly in this one cuz i only have a short while but so much has gone on i just have to tell you all!



to pick up from where i left off yesterday...dinner was good! we ALL got nachos! can you tell we are missing mexican food hahaha. after we were done we decided to play a little game called "bigger and better" on the way home. for those of you who dont know this is when you split into teams (we had teams of 3) and you start off with an item that is really lame and small...in our case it was a STRAW. we then proceeded to go off in dublin to see what we could find that was bigger and better. we asked pubs, hotels and random people on the streets. we went from a straw to 2 coffee stirers and sugar to a hotel brochure to a subway bag to a bigger bag with handles to A BOUQUET OF ROSES after that we knew we were as big and best as we could get so we headed back to the judge who was waiting at our hotel. when the others got back we all had to give a speech on why we should win and present our item. people had a book from starbucks, a disposable camera and HUBCAPS. yes you heard me right. they won...just cuz it was SOOOO random! after this we played a game called mafia with like 14 of us in the middle of the hotel. they really love us here :) it was probably one of the best nights we have had and i am glad we have all gotten a chance to hang out together.

TODAY was a good day as well. we woke up early had another great breakfast and thennnn we went on a James Joyce tour. it was interesting cuz it corresponded with what we have been reading for class. after we went to trinity college and saw the BOOK OF KELLS. it was really incredible and something i really dont regret paying for. after trinity, which is a BEAUTIFUL campus in the middle of everything we went to a jail...a jail that at the moment i cant remember the name of :) hahaha this is what i get for blogging in a hurry...anyway it was really cool and i feel like we really learned a lot! after the jail maddy and i had dinner at harry's...it is a burger place and for the 1st time i felt like i was at home haha. they were REALLY good burgers and didnt tase like meatloaf. we then went on a GHOST BUS TOUR. it was a bit expensive, but a lot of fun! i got really scared and we learned a lot about dublin that we wouldnt have learned otherwise...even if they were silly ghost stories. while some of them were silly we did learn about the people who snatch bodies from the graves and a professor who used them in his classes to scare his students. EW! we went to a graveyard and the oldest site in dublin which is a church. it was a fun day of touring and i really am happy because we are getting a lot out of our few short days here!

currently we are back at the hotel and ready for bed. tomorrow we get to sleep in and we are SO excited! plans for tomorrow include a free museum and a play at night! i am really excited for that, it should be really interesting...hopefully we will be able to understand them!

okay have to go for now! home so soon i misssss you all so much! cant wait to get back :D


GOODNIGHT!
