The sky is spitting at me :(

It doesn't really properly rain here during the day, it just drizzles randomly. Anyways, I didn't really do anything exciting yesterday either. The cold won once again, so I just went to the library and the English Market and then went home and took a nap. All the little Freshers have arrived today, so they are all taking tours and carting around umbrellas. It makes the place a bit more colorful, and crowded. Apparently the upper classmen don't start for a week after the freshman which I don't get, but there are lots of parties and stuff then, so it should be fun. (I kind of want to go to the pirate party, free hat and eyepatch :). Tomorrows my last day of my folklore class, and Friday is the Academic Walkabout. And then on Saturday I'm going to Blarney, so I'll have more to write about and pictures to post then. Also more info on the clubs and classes I'm doing. If it stops being so drizzly I might go out tonight, as my nose has stopped running so much, and my ears are only a little stuffed up now. I might just stay home and work on my essays though, since they are due in a couple weeks, and the cobble stones are pretty slick when it's raining.

Hey Syd! I like all your pictures. They make me want to go study abroad and Ireland, but I think that I should still do Spain just to get the language component in there. I've been having tests all week, and still have a group presentation tomorrow in Spanish about artificial insemination and three tests on Monday. After that my schedule calms down a bit for a while, but still, I've been stressed out all week. But anyways, I have your old phone, and am supposed to be getting a new one sometime soon if mom and dad will ever take care of that. I still have my same numnber though, and I'll try and give you a call this weekend, and if not then, then on Tuesday when I'm done with all my exams. Mom has my old cell phone, and even though she doesn't know how to work it that well, she has still been using all my minutes. I went to a volleyball tournament last Saturday with dad, Alex, and Lacey and took pictures, and that was harder than I thought. Alex has his last first band compettition this Saturday, and depending on where I am on the studying factor, I might go to that. I think that's about all for now cause I need to go work on some homework. Mom never gave me the mp3 player, so I'll have to ask her about that, and whatever jerseys you get should be fine.
Love always,
Your sister Amanda
