Hey everybody!Ireland was amazing. I was there for about 4 weeks and stayed at Trinity College in Dublin. We were right in the city for the most part, but we did day trips/ tours etc. and two out of the 4 weekends we did trips to different parts of the island. The first time, we spend the weekend in Sligo, a more rural area, and then then next we were in Belfast (which is not part of the republic so they use pounds).
The trip had about 23 students, plus three Loyola professors and some of their families. (They also stayed at the college). There were four classes offered and you had to take two, making it a six credit program. Most of the students were English Literature/Writing majors. The classes I
took were, James Joyce as well as Religion, Narrative and Violence.
On a whole, it was pretty amazing and I definitely thought about just movi
ng there! The people were great, the Irish just love American girls! (Not American men - apparently they think they are too "fratty" or rowdy.) However, they thought that American girls are really cute and sassy and friendly - just my kinda place!
Anyway, I missed all of you so much! I really was upset I missed out on the reunion this year. It's always one of my favorite times of the year. But I hear that everyone had a good time at Kahala!
Here are some of my photos and photography! (For those of you who don't know I started doing some photography and got a Nikon D90 - my new baby.)
