"You CONQUERED the stew!"

TODAY WAS A GOOD DAY.

We had class this morning and it was fabulous simply because it was our LAST one! I can't believe we had only had like, OH I DONT KNOW 8 class meetings! Class got out around 1ish and we headed to the dorms to relax for the afternoon. Around 6 PM we all headed into town to go to this pub called Nancy Blake's where our professors were meeting us and buying us all a half pint of either Guinness or Cider. It was really fun and nice of them to do that for us. Hanging out with them was a good time. I decided to get Cider and it was a lot better on tap than when I got it in a bottle. We were only there for a little then left to go to Dolan's for dinner. Since we had been going there so much they decided to give us a deal and charge 10 Euros a person for either a starter and main course or a main course and a dessert. OBVIOUSLY I chose to get the main course with dessert. I got Traditional Irish Stew (again) and a Sticky Toffee Pudding with Butterscotch Sauce :) it was absolutely DELICIOUS. Probably the best dinner I've had. I ate the WHOLE thing and when I was done Maddy yelled, "YOU CONQUERED THE STEW!" It was sooooo nice to eat MEAT and VEGGIES and POTATOES and DESSERT. Yummmmmy :) After we ate everyone who got a Dolan's shirt took a picture with Neil, Dolan's son. They said that they are going to put it on the front of their website :) We were pretty excited! 

When we got back Maddy and I were changing out of our 10000 layers and I decided to show her the silliness of my leggings and socks. From there we got the fabulous idea to put on our most RIDICULOUS items of clothing...TOGETHER and go downstairs acting completely normal. Maddy's outfit was good, but was nothing compared to mine. Head to toe, this is what I am wearing...leopard print headband and scarf, black tank top, green and blue plaid long sleeve shirt, bright polka dot pants to my knees, bright pink leggings, reindeer socks AND tie dye flip flops. IT IS MARVELOUS. Pictures are being put up on Facebook as we speak. We were doing the dishes, talking on the phone, reading books, napping, walking outside, etc. Anyway, now I am doing laundry and procrastinating. We have 2 more assignments due online and then all that's left is the final project, which can be a scrapbook! 

Off to get stuff done...maybe :) Tomorrow we get to sleep in and at 11:30 we are going to a pub to watch the rugby game...I am really excited! Dublin on Sunday morning then HOME Friday :) Can't wait to see my family and eat mexican fooooood! :)
