3 days of school, 4 days of fun! =)

First week of school in Ireland=MADNESS!! My schedule has changed about 500 times since Monday morning and I have attended about 10 classes which I will no longer be taking. At UCC this week is a shopping week for us International students. What this means is that we can go to different classes, test them out, and then next week we officially enroll in the ones that we want. This oh so cool process provides both stress and excitement. I spent the majority of my week looking like this....

That is the UCC campus map in my hands...
Monday morning I was the first to a class that I have already taken in the states...
Tues I showed up to a lecture to find out that the professor had quit! At this point I figured the only thing to do was....
Hit up the campus bar at 3pm with Kevin. =)
We were quite entertained by all the drunk students and the lively Karaoke. Even the campus knows that the students love to party! =)
In addition to the mayhem that the week provided, I also met some of the sweetest best Irish gals ever. I know I don't know that many Irish people, but these gals are by the best in town, I just know it. They are tickled pink by the fact that I say trash can instead of bin. =)
This week is Fresher week at UCC and the pubs are crawling with students who have just started back to college. The pubs are all packed and school is quite bumping this week. It is nearly impossible to pub jump this week and the lines all looked about like this...
But don't you worry, I still managed to go out every night this week.. =)
 Monday music and brew...
 Little Dancing...
The Irish gals even got me a shout out from this fine dj in his Hollister apparel. Turns out Abercrombie and Hollister are just now big brands in Ireland. haha
This fella, along with about ten other fellas not pictured, felt inclined to take their shirts off and dance on the bar when the dj played Hakuna Matata. It was possibly one of the funniest things I have seen in Ireland.  


All in all it has been a hectic week, but a really great week as well. I love love love Ireland and I don't think I will ever want to come home. As for now, I am off to Scotland for the weekend! YAY 

Cheers =) 



 It is Thursday now and I officially started my weekend! YAY
