A Beautiful Day in Galway

Hi everyone!
Not too much report, although the weather is definitely worthy of mentioning, it's gorgeous today! We're hoping it stays but our fellow Galwegians (?) are skeptical. We're enjoying it while it lasts anyway. We went to Salthill and got some ice cream and picked up my pay check from Coco (yay money!) I am even more in love with Galway when the sun is out :)


Tonite Katie and I are going to Sheila's because her apartment is actually clean! We're going to play a little flippy cup and beer pong, bring some America to Ireland :) After that we'll go out and find a bar. I've been feeling very nostalgic lately so I'm going to consider tonite a small pity party. I am just realizing again that there is no college to go back to when I come home. I don't like to think about it often but at this new job of mine I don't talk to anyone during the day which allows me way too much time to think! I was looking at some old pictures on Facebook and just really miss my apartment and ISU and friends...O well.

This week at work was apparently Charity Week, so Tuesday night I DRAGGED Katie to a "table quiz" at this really cool bar called Busker Brown's. My work was sponsoring this quiz, which is basically teams of 3-5 people answering trivia questions and there are prizes. It's 5 euro per person so that's where the money came from. It actually turned out to be a lot of fun! We knew all the American trivia questions (names of Obama's kids...) and our team kept saying "Thank God for the Yanks! We actually came in 2nd place! We got a 20 euro voucher to "Be A Diva" which the rest of the team just gave to us since we were visitors! These girls were so nice, I really love the girls I work with. Friday was supposed to be Pajama Day at work, which apparently is mortifying to the girls I work with, though Kate and I thought it was a great idea, as any Resite would agree with I'm sure :) Turns out I left work Thursday fully planning on wearing PJs the next day but ran into a girl from work that afternoon and mentioned it, and she told me it was cancelled! I would have been the only one there in pajamas...which, to be honest, I actually would not have minded haha

I just found out Col got into Northeaster, YAY!!!! I'm so excited for her...

Keep your fingers crossed for this weather to stay! I love you all, and miss you more than you know!!
Lots of love,
-Erin
