Talkin' & Walkin'

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...!

An Epic Adventure!

My epic adventure began at 7.30am this morning when my alarm went off. Soon after I switched off said alarm, I quickly fell back to sleep. Very exciting! Anyway because of this I ended up with only 40mins to have a shower, eat and whatever, before I was to get the bus into the nearest city Galway. Almost missed it, but got on all the same!

On the bus with one of my closest friends, D, I read and edited her story. It's a good plot! She's really creative! I wish I could tell ya more, but, as editor, I'm sworn to secrecy! Hopefully ye can all read it yourselves some day :)

We then scoured the Eyre Square Shopping Centre and all of Shop Street for converse (got my first high-tops!), bras & DVDs... No shop was went unnoticed by our judging stares! Then, we ate in McDonald's before heading down to see Snow White and the Huntsman. It was a brilliant film! I highly recommend it.

However, because the movie started later than scheduled, we had to run for our bus - literally! I then had to ask the bus driver to wait while me and my friend went to the bathroom (DO NOT GET A LARGE DRINK, FINISH IT DURING THE FINISH IT IN THE FIRST HOUR OF A TWO HOUR FILM AND THEN SPRINT FOR YOUR BUS!!!). Luckily we knew him (he lets ya get onto the bus as a "child" even though you could be 18/19!), so it was all good!

D started writing something on her story, so I finished typing up something small I'd been working on myself on my iPod. T'was a nice relaxing journey home. Well, apart from the fact my seat was broken, as it just kept reclining, no matter what I did. -_- I was squashing the poor American fella in the seat behind me and there was no empty seats... He was pretty cool about it though, thank God!

Well, that was my epic adventure!
I'm off to bed! Goodnight! <3
