So....College!

I'm actually so tired right now, so I won't write much tonight. Sorry for not blogging for the past week, but we only got broadband in the apartment on Friday, as I was getting ready to go home and I haven't set my laptop up on the network properly. Oh well.

College has been great, only in Dublin can you stay out till 3AM on a Tuesday. Excellent I know. But yeah, so far my experience has been overwhelmingly positive. I joined an unholy amount of societies, with one still to join (DU Dance). Seriously, no way will I get to all of them. I've met new people, everyone up there is so nice, it's crazy!

I've been out a few out a few times already and though I didn't go wild like most people during Freshers' Week, I had a deadly time. It's terrible how I'm not 18 for a month, I still face the horrible pit-of-your-stomach feeling when queing for clubs. Didn't get into 21 in Dublin, but then again, it was 8e I just didn't want to spend!

That leads me on to something else, whereas it's nice being able to pick and choose what I want to buy, it's a pain keeping track of money. Monetary responsibility.....Rotten. I've been living off Coca Pops for breakfast and then my Mam's homemade lasange. Not at the same time mind. That would be horrible.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to starting my course. Well, the Politics side of it at least, the History orientation meeting wasn't exactly inspiring if I'm being honest. We'll see I guess!

There's lots more to say about college and living in Dublin in general (it's so weird waking up to the sound of the DART!!), but I'm wreaked and shall hopefully be blogging from Dublin soon!

Laters.

P.S. Gossip Girl is still amazing. Serena is such a bitch!

Wow, not being 18 in college, that's a strange one, you'll get there eventually though.
Glad everything's working out well so far, and i'd say, don't worry about the money, get yourself a nice part time job in your first year, the studying shouldn't be too hectic, and you should be able to pull it off.
As for home-made lasagne, well it could be worse, i've seen some of my friends living off oreos and beer. :P

As for me.. we'll it's only a week until i'm 18, woop woop! Party down here in the 'port :D
