As you can probably tell I'm starting to find life here a little bit more bearable, it's becoming more "the norm", I'm "getting in to the swing of things" as you would say. My job I think has had allot to do with that, so not only do I feel like a member of this society (as new a member as I am) but I am also tied down from going any where 5 days a week, wow it's almost like being back home. :)
That is why I have decided to come back... no I'm just pulling your leg! But seriously;
I must admit that when I started planning for all this, this wasn't exactly what I had in mind. I mean I knew that I was going on a work visa, I knew I would be basing myself out of Dublin Ireland, and I knew I'd probably work for a while, but those were all words. I focused all my plans and thoughts on the traveling part, the going out and seeing things up close that most people have only seen in pictures or the T.V (Witch by the way is another thing I've gotten used to not having) I thought so hard about that and got so excited for it, that when I woke up yesterday morning I had to seriously think... this isn't exactly what I wanted to be doing, I could be doing this back home but this is where I am ... and this is what I'm doing now... and it came to me that I am damn well happy about it.
I look at how this last week has gone, it went by so fast I can hardly believe it. I know that at the moment it all seems like forever, but as I stand a few days away from 1 month, I just know its going to be great. I know I've done so much in just one months time and that can make it seem like it went by fast, and that makes me wonder now that I'm in my routine, whats next? I think that the next two months are going to be allot like this week has been. Working quite a bit maybe seeing the odd movie or going out the odd night, a few things to look forward to (last week it was my birthday, this week it's Ashley's visit! :D) The random or planed correspondence home, and allot of improvising!
I know that nothing works out the way you plan it to and that completely half the fun ( the other half for me is the planing itself, call me weird!) but I think that I have a rough idea. I stay here doing what I'm doing until the end of June, 2 months, then so far as has been planned I have some one coming to visit for 2 weeks and we will travel around Ireland together, I'm sending all my living things, items I've accumulated and yes gifts home with them because it would cost a small fortune to send it back home through the mail. Then I'm off on the 15th of July to Italy with Ashley one month of traveling with her and then I'm on my own, doing my own thing for 2 months. That is what I'm here for, I am so excited! Then after that, the middle of October, I think that I'm going to live in a small Irish town not to sure where or witch one, but to just get a different feel than the city. I might work in a hostel or something... or maybe I'll just take one heck of a long vacation before heading home for Christmas. (For those of you who know me though it will more likely be the first option lol.)
I'm up for it. I'm just worried now that I wont have anything else to blog about when my life starts to be more boring than this in the next 2 months... theres only so many ways I can make working as a waitress sound interesting and I think you've all heard way to many times that my room mates and co-workers are nice.
Other than that I talked to Toddar this morning, kinda upsetting because I had been looking forward to it all week, but he was really tired , it only lasted an hour, and he couldn't talk because Justin was sleeping in the room. But oh well Sundays convo will be better and plus... Ashley's coming from Scotland tomorrow to stay with me for five days! We've been planning this for months but it's finally happening, I swear I'm like a kid on Christmas eve. I bought tickets to go see Alexus on fire with Jill and J.B. So I have allot going on...I'm doing alright.
P/S... Isn't it amazing how I can make tree days of nothing in to one of the longest posts? It's a gift I'm telling you.
