So it took me weeks on my current internet connection to get these videos up. It's not because the upload speed is all that bad, it's because it disconnects every five minutes and youtube doesn't like that. But anyway, videos of Eddie Izzard! Ummmmm I should probly ljcut since there are quite a few videos. One of them already has like 350 views. ( Read more... )

Last night I saw my first living statue. It was pretty fucking awesome. And all the other Arcadia people were like, "Waaaaah, I've seen those in New York before." And I was like fuck you this is awesome. So I watched him sit on a bench and pretend to be a statue for a few minutes and then he moved! He looked at his watch and was was like, "Ah, time ( Read more... )

So I learned the other day that Irish was revived in Ireland. There was a good 100 years or something where they only spoke English and had forgotten Irish mostly. The revival was also more of an English thing rather than an Irish thing. I watched a really awesome short film in my comtemperary Irish film class about a college student in China who ( Read more... )

This weekend was pretty amazing. I had my homestay in Tuam, which is this small city on the other side of Ireland. I lived with a family that had three children and they were so fucking amazing. They just ran around non stop and threw rocks at eachother. Then they would climb walls to try and impress me but they'd get stuck at the top and cry until ( Read more... )

After school I decided to go around Dublin and explore some more. It reminded me of why I'm here. And I took lots of pictures. There all on Facebook because Facebook seems to be the only site that has a way to upload lots of photos at once. I also took videos. I've never done that before, so we'll so how it goes ( Read more... )

First complaint about UCD. Fix your fucking registration process, UCD ( Read more... )

So I've moved into my apartment. It's pretty nice. It's really fucking cold, though. But I guess that's how them Irish like it. Nice and cheap. Speaking of which, nothing is cheap. It's sort of annoying, but oh well. I am currently trying to get my pictures on to photobucket. But I'm starting to think either Irish interwebs is lame or Photobucket ( Read more... )

So guess where I am? Haha...ya. Dublin. So it's pretty amazing. I'm in some sort of internet cafe so I probably can't make this too long. Costs money and everything. I got a fancy new European mobile. And ya. I'm not really over my jet lag since I just got here today. People drive on the other side of the road, and I totally forget all the time and ( Read more... )

Last night in Minnesota, the United States and all that. I can't help but have this horrible feeling of unfinished business. Which is fine. I guess I shouldn't be trying to finish anything if I'm coming back. I kind of want to keep this short. I'm going to try my best to update this and some sort of photobucket or... the other one I can't remember ( Read more... )

I'm probably going to rely on Ulysses for the next six months, and I'm pretty alright with that. All I know about the book is that it takes place in a single day, other than that it's like this big mystery I'll finally (hopefully) figure out this coming semester. It takes place in Dublin, and that's where I'll be. I just hope I like it ( Read more... )
