…was a big, fat liar!\u00a0 It has been nothing but sun, sun, sun.\u00a0 And when I say that, I hope I am not tempting the fates to pour down liquid sunshine.\u00a0 I get enough of that at home.\u00a0 But seriously, there has been enough sun to better than lovely sun glasses tan line that I have on my nose.\u00a0 Attractive, really.\u00a0<\/p>\n
So I tried to put up a picture of Trinity, where my internship is.\u00a0 It failed, as you can blatantly see.\u00a0 Today was my last day this week, yay!\u00a0 Such a long week.\u00a0 It’s a cool place, don’t get me wrong.\u00a0 But I want to SEE things too!\u00a0 By the time I get off, nearly everything is closed.\u00a0 And some of the people I’m working with…well, Murray.\u00a0 He’s the lawyer there, the barister, if you will.\u00a0 He is the most awkward little fellow you will ever meet.\u00a0 And then of course there is Dr. McGuckin, whom I mainly work for.\u00a0 That’s probably enough said right there.\u00a0 The smoothest one there is the younger, calmer Garret O’Moore with whom I got to sit in with today to\u00a0watch in a psychological assessment!\u00a0 Very cool and\u00a0difficult to\u00a0find this\u00a0opportunity elsewhere.\u00a0 The poor woman was crying the whole time though…it was an eye-opener definitely.\u00a0\u00a0Probably\u00a0shouldn’t say much more.\u00a0 What else…there are 4 other American interns, 2 of which have already started, with me.\u00a0 We have been getting lunch and sometimes\u00a0going out for Irish\u00a0coffee and chocolates after the long day at work!\u00a0 Hahaha, rrrright.\u00a0 It’s been good though, I am excited as well because now I get to write up the report\u00a0on the woman who was in the assessment and possibly partake in more research\u00a0to do\u00a0with the “Red Balloon,” an organization that sets up schools\u00a0for kids who’ve been bullied out of school.\u00a0\u00a0It’s exceptionally interesting because I’ll get to use all that crazy statistical stuff I learned in psy 201\/301!\u00a0 YAY… kidding, sort of.\u00a0 But seriously, they want to know what a good sample size would be.\u00a0 This sounds vaguely familiar…<\/p>\n
And as\u00a0for other things.\u00a0 I haven’t gotten to do much in the evenings, because, as I already mentioned, nothing is open very late, except the pubs!\u00a0 I’ve definitely walked\u00a0my calves into\u00a0shape though.\u00a0Man.\u00a0 At least\u00a0an hour and half of walking a day.\u00a0 I’m not talking nonchalantly bumbling along.\u00a0 I mean real, hardcore,\u00a0Irish-style citywalking.\u00a0 (Alright, alright.\u00a0 I have been taking some breaks in\u00a0Steven’s Green on\u00a0the way in the morning.\u00a0 I\u00a0always have extra time!)\u00a0 Also, this week, Monday-ish, I sort of had a panic attack.\u00a0\u00a0It was great.\u00a0 It comes with the anxiety territory.\u00a0\u00a0At least I knew what it was this time.\u00a0\u00a0But yay for Irish\u00a0counselors…let me just say, American ones are way more\u00a0awesome and way less awkward, like, they don’t stare at you in silence for an hour and never laugh when you do…it was FUN!\u00a0 pshh.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Anyways, this weekend I’m going to get Kerry-ed away!\u00a0 I’m\u00a0going to visit County Kerry, more specifically, Dingle!\u00a0 Silly name, right?\u00a0 I think so.\u00a0 Anyways, I’m really excited because it’ll be traditional, beautiful, green, countryside\u00a0Ireland.\u00a0 Like the movies maybe.\u00a0<\/p>\n
I guess that’s all really.\u00a0 I’m sorry this isn’t SUPER exciting.\u00a0 I will tell you, my lucky housemate went to the Jameson Distillery and met PINK!\u00a0 And she was shwastey!\u00a0 Lucky her!\u00a0 Apparently, she was\u00a0chill.\u00a0 So, not a mean drunk.\u00a0 Cool.\u00a0 And….cut.\u00a0<\/p>\n
And btw, I didn’t really feel that I got it acrossed.\u00a0 But I do love it here!\u00a0 Yay!\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
