It'll Be Grand

We have moved into our house (it's actually a house not an apartment).  There are four of us living here, Hannah, myself, and two guys that are in grad school at Purdue.  We've gotten a few things set up.  The way they make their beds is a bit different than in the US.  Here a duvet is to cover the large blanket (like a sham for a blanket).  The place is already becoming quite comfy.  I am currently sitting in front of the fire and we now have internet.  I think this is going to work out.

If you are so lovely to want to send me snail mail or a care package, email me & I would gladly give you my address. :)

Hannah and I met a few of our professors and got our schedules set up.  It is going to be a decently full load, but it'll be grand.  This is the philosophy the Irish go by, so we have adopted this as well.  I might have to stay here longer than five months, we'll see.  I have not been here a week yet, and I definitely think that we are getting a hand of things, such as learning the art of jay-walking. Classes start Monday, so this will be the next big adjustment.

Next on my list to do is find a gym.  I will probably check this situation out tomorrow.  I have not worked out (besides walking with pounds of groceries and household items on my back and in my arms) since last Sunday, the day we left the.  There are a couple close by, so we'll see which is the most adequate for me.

Well going out to the pubs of Dublin later, but first I need to cook dinner for the crew.

Pictures to come in the future; they must be taken first.
