Dublin!

Even though I was nervous up until the day we left for our flight to be cancelled due to the volcano, here we are in Ireland. So far I absolutely love it! I don't know if it's just because people in Spain aren't nice but everyone here seems to be really friendly and helpful. Last night we got in about 12:30 their time and made our way to our hostel with the help of our bus drivers and another guy going to the same place. People were already asleep in our room so we quickly got ready for bed and crawled into our top bunks. I didn't sleep that well but I feel exhausted now so hopefully tonight will be better.
We enjoyed our free breakfast and then headed out to wander around until the free walking tour. The tour was from 11-3:30 and it was interesting to hear the history behind everything and get shown around. We were starving by the end and stopped by Subway which was connected with a snack shop where I found crispy M&Ms!! So naturally I got 3 large bags of them since I've been looking for them eeeveryywhere! Anyways so then we went to the train station and headed to Howth. We fed fish to some seals, walked along the water and down a dock to sit for a little while. The sun was shining, it was beautiful, and it was relaxing. We went back to sit by the seals for a little while then grabbed something to eat. Then we took the train back to the city and came to this internet cafe.
Tomorrow we're meeting up with my friend Sadie for lunch and hanging out afterwards. On Saturday we're thinking about doing a guided tour around the mountains where Braveheart and P.S. I love You were filmed. Then we fly out to Scotland.

So school is officially over and I'm a junior! The rest of my finals were easy enough and I hope I didn't make too many silly mistakes or anything. It was kind of a rough week because Monday my online stats class started. Well the program for doing assignments isn't compatible with macs and I don't have the discs with me to use the programs that allow you to run Windows. I tried a bunch of things to make different programs work but no luck. Finally I downloaded it on Liz's computer and worked my butt off to get all the assignments done that needed to be until I get back to Granada. Freaking pain in the ass. When I get back home I'll download it using the parallels and hopefully not have any problems.

Speaking of which I have a week from tomorrow until I'm on a plane back to the states! I can't believe it's so close but I'm excited!

Well hopefully I get some good sleep tonight and am alive, awake, alert, and enthusiastic for tomorrow. I hope our random roommates don't come back too drunk from their night out and keep us all up. I'm so not going to miss staying in hostels.

Hasta luego!
