kinsale, mt. brandon, sangria

busy busy weekend :)

last week was the normal, except chapman, a friend from college was traveling around europe came to visit me on thursday evening, so kara and i took her out for a fun night :)

and then on friday kara's friend from home, elizabeth, who is teaching in france this year came voer to visit, so just hung out with them, then saturday we went into kinsale for the afternoon, which was good fun :) and then out saturday night, which turned into a pretty funny night.

sunday was a fabulous hike :) we went to mt. brandon (my favourite mountain in ireland) and the day was nice and fun, and i got tot see what brandon looked like :) and got gorgeous pictures of brandon bay, but of course about halfway up the clouds rolled in, so the top was wet, cloudy, snowy,windy, hail... but overall it was a great day and yay for my favourite irish mountain :)

monday night was amazing, went to a mexican restaurant with kara, elizabeth and kara's roomate carmen. it was soooooo gooood! the sangria was fabulous as well as my enchiladas, and the conversation and laughter was even better. then after that, we went to captain america's because they have student drinks specials - 3euro for a cocktail! soooo exciting! i haven't had a cocktail since the summer, so my sex on the beach was amazing! i'll definitely be headed there again for drinks.

tuesday, against my better judgment, i decided to go out to the club with kara and elizabeth. i had a good time, just reminded me that the club was full of 18 year olds and they were obnoxious, so clubbing = bad idea. but it still was fun, especially the drinking at kara's before.

ohhh, monday was exciting because i got my package from chelsea, with a collage of rowing and oreos! YAY!! just need to find somewhere to hang it! and i'm planning my ZTA weekend in april, which is fun, becuase i do miss it, and it will be nice to meet other ZTA's abroad. annnnnd the office is closed the week after easter, so i don't have to ask for another few days off so i can go to donegal with the mountaineering club :) yay!

going climbing and to the pub tonight, i've been kinda lazy the last few weeks with climbing. oops. i'm excited for friday because it is the post-grad ball, so i can't wait to dress up and have fun :) and then next thursday is clubs/socs ball, which i am even more excited for, because i get a ticket from work, for dealing with all the societies, and i'll be the one selling the tickets this week at work, so it will be crazy tomorrow and friday... so yay for balls and dressing up.
