Today was tiring, but I loved it so much! After I did whatever serving and cleaning with Mam, we ate lunch and then prepared some fruit for the jam. Did I tell you she sells jam in the local shops? It was tiring, but, after, I set out for a walk with my friend, D! We met half way between our houses from where we just walked aimlessly for two hours throughout the back roads of where we lived. It was great!
I'm not big into walking, but if I've someone to talk to it's perfectly fine. We didn't even feel the time pass. It was great just to talk about everything and anything with her. She even told me the next part of her story she's written (she's really talented - I'm not being biased here) & I told here whatever ideas I have for mine, which, yet again, I'm having trouble just putting onto paper or even typing it up!
Anyway, it was a day well spent! It was great laughing, giggling and just being plain stupid at times for the craic (Irish word for fun - pronounced "crack", but I promise it has nothing to do with drugs! Haha!). I even came home with two huge blisters on the heels of my feet &, as sore as they are, feck 'em!!! It was worth it!
I love D! We may go for another walk on Friday, plus J was saying the four of us (D, R, J and I) should try and meet up for lunch in town some day next week before I go to the Gaeltacht.This will be great considering J & R live on the other side of town to me and D, about 40 - 50 minutes away. So, without public transport like they have in the big towns in cities, it's hard for us to see one another when we're on school holidays.
So, this will be something to look forward to, before I head off for three weeks, without a mobile or Internet access (well, except for Sundays, but I'll explain that better another day) in the Gaeltacht!
I'm starting to wonder how I'll survive without it all now - I've become a bit of an Internet-addict in the last year & I can't even use my iPod or read English books! It'll be an adventure, I'm sure...!
