Orientation was so enlightening and informative! We listened to university officials talk about mission statements, campus construction, and what to expect during the first two weeks of college. But yea, actually it was unsurprisingly a waste of time.
Class starts tomorrow. Wait... I have class? Pretty siked actually- gonna take Pagan Celts, Perspectives on Film, Irish Literature, Contemporary Ireland on Stage, Ulysses, Shakespeare and Renaissance Literature.
This weekend was fairly uneventful. Saturday we went to the Guinness Factory, followed by Irish Stew @ The Bleeding Horse. After digesting the Guinness-infused broth, we went to The Temple Bar for some live music then hit up The Button Factory to get our groove on.
Hopin classes aren't too work intensive. Probably not... considering the library closes at 5pm. Wish me luck with the killer stress.
PEACE
Hey there, Josh! Was with your mom over the weekend & she told me how gr8 the orientation/tour was...NOT. But, your courses should be good if you have good teachers.
ReplyDeleteSounds like Guinness is the key ingredient to every recipe over there. Whoa! And we've heard Irish food's not very good! Lol. Enjoy your first week of classes, me boyo. Love, Nook
Hi, Josh! Glad you're doing well and beginning your "real" schedule. Hope your classes are as interesting as they sound. I'm sure Guinness will offset any shortcomings in the Irish cuisine. (Mutton anyone?) Stay well and have fun. Love, Tom
ReplyDeleteJosh, your courses sound amazingly inviting. Enjoy, me Laddie Boyo, enjoy!! Do they have any campus extension classes at the Guinness Factory? Bet their library doesn't close at 5!! Love, Sha
