Fun fact, Ireland has a TJ maxx.. it's just called TK maxx but other than that it's the exact same! needless to say we stopped in there today, and were able to score a blow dryer for cheap, one that won't blow up the apartment. Orientation was good today, met some of the other international students and saw some club advisors and professors that got me really excited about starting on monday...it just needs to get here a bit faster! :) Today was better than yesterday, still struggling with jet lag and of course the language (as we were told today, we speak American English, and American English is an entirely different language than Irish English) one woman talked so fast in the store today, we thought she was basically mumbling. Anyway, the city of Limerick is beautiful, a great mix of old and new. and shopping for groceries was...an experience. We now understand why the Irish students call and have them delivered for only a little more than the bus fair to get to and from the store. So anyway, I heard I scared some people yesterday with my post, I assure you I am fine! I just need my soon-to-be Irish friends to get there butts to school already! :) well.. I made it until 2 am, but i should get to bed. Good night!
