The week in review

I'll do my best to post a quick recap every week of what I did, what happened, my thoughts, feelings etc. It'll be fairly short right now as not much is going on but as the school year progresses these should become even more interesting. :)

And please pardon the abbreviations and improper grammar.

Saturday - found Temple Bar Food Market (aka farmer's market), was in heaven despite massive throngs of people who can't say "pardon" or "sorry" or "excuse me". Bought trashy chic novel (read all week, cried every night), went to Meetup.com coffee chat, met nice people but weirdos too. Went home, ate chocolate and watched Dexter.

Sunday - watched too many epis of Dexter, eat 2 choc bars after phone call with sister, feel so sad and miss family so much = loads of chocolate.

Monday - not much going on...went to the fruit store (fruit & veg place about 20 min away) and bought some apples. Watched lots of TV - so dull.

Tuesday - was fortunate enough to receive a small loan from my former boss...had enough $$ for rent of course but barely any for food and none for going out. lifted my spirits in a BIG way.

Wednesday - saw cousin and other cousin (and her family), spent a few hours in Dublin with cousin and cousin's friend (who has also lived in Boulder!). Was so lovely to discover am not only one who thinks washing machine and ovens are completely stupid here. Images on said appliances must have been created by fluent Sanskrit linguist as make no sense to average person.

Thursday - walked to UCD. Discovered takes 25 min to get to my side of campus, am not pleased. Dropped off original transcripts, worried girl will f**k up and file them improperly (didn't seem overly bright), tried to find International advisor but couldn't, couldn't find Women's Studies offices either, left feeling dismayed. Ate loads of chocolate and watched epis of Buffy and Dexter.

Friday - tried to mail letter, Post office not open even though during normal biz hours (typical Irish), bought more chocolate at Lidl, paid Sept rent and told roommate am moving out at EOM to live nearer the city, feel guilty so eat more chocolate.

Stay tuned for more kids! Love you.
