Hello all! I had no idea what to name this post so I just thought about telling you that I am starting to pick up on some of the irish. I learned the sign of the cross in Irish and I know my numbers up to ten!! YAY! haha Well things have been good for the last week! It has been rainy for the past four or five days but today was beautiful!!
Last weekend we stayed in Cork and took in the beauty here. We met a new friend that just arrived here from Columbus IN to teach also. She is here to teach untill June 23rd. Her name is Brittane and she is super nice. She is twenty five and also has a serious boyfriend at home. We hung out with Brittane a lot this week. Kyla our other friend has been sick with a Kidney infection.. yuck! I hope she feels better soon! ---> also hope she doesn't have the Swine FLU!!! HAHA everybody has been talking about this and how I am not going to be able to make it home because the US is going to close the border due to the flu. HOPE NOT!
Over the past feww days we have been meeting a lot of new people which some of them are very interesting!! Cork has to be the only place where a fifty year old man will just casually sit down with a bunch of twenty year olds and act like thats okay!! haha We went out to dinner tonight and I got steak for the first time since being here!!! Yummy it was so good and I have been missing my red meat! The place we went to was really good, it was called Amicus!
Okay sorry for jumping around but I haven't written in a while... School is going well, I am getting more and more comfortable with everything! Today we had a fruit and mini sandwich party to promote healthy eating. This all came about when we had a guest speaker in and she did a sugar demonstration. She was talking about how much sugar was in a coke and a bar of chocolate... uh 18!!!!! So she whips out this clear glass and starts spooning the tablespoons of sugar into the glass. She holds up the glass and says this is how much sugar goes into your body after eating just a chocolate bar and a coke!! AHHH that was a wake up call! Well I still can't give up the chocolate here, not even after that haha! It is too amazing!
Okay well I think that is enough info for today!! Hope I didn't jump around too much for you haha!! can you say A.D.D? well love you all ... ill be home in three short weeks... BITTERSWEET!
