I can't wait to be a teacher...

Good Morning Los Angeles! Haha, hey guys, well it's goin on 7pm over here and I'm about to get ready for dindin, but I always write in this thing thinkin socal time:) I had to do a presentation today in my Literature class on Liam O'Flaherty's novel Skerrett. A pretty dark and not so optimistic novel, but nonetheless it was pretty good surprisingly. My group members kinda left me hangin lastnight when finishing the project, but I really enjoyed talking in front of the class. Can you imagine that? Voted as "most shy" in high school, I now look forward to group presentations, i love it! A couple girls came up to me and said I should definitely be a teacher, lucky for me, that's what my future plans entail:)

I just got back from a beautiful run. "Beautiful" - an interesting choice of adjective for a run you'd say? haha, well my dorm is located on the river banks of the Corrib River, so there's a nice little path right along the river that you can run. I've been goin running with Amee, but she's in music class right now so I was able to enjoy a run to myself, with my iPod, a nice breeze, no rain and the bluest skies you'll see. Today was on and off cloudy as well as rainy day, but I picked a good time to go running. When it's not pouring rain, but rather cloudy, the on and off sprinkles are quite annoying, but the blue skies you get in between are amazing. Do you guys remember how blue the skies were Mom and Dad? It so cool, cause on the path where I go running, right across the river there are ruins of an old church with a bunch of greenery all around it, it's beautiful even from afar. It's crazy how many ruins of old houses and churches there are around here, there all over, nothing compared to Beautiful L.A...haha.

Just got back to my room, popped open my windows and i'm blasting Bob Dylan on my iTunes:) Myself, Caitlin, and my friend Erin have to go into town tonight for our Gaelic class to get some street names in Gaelic and I think on our way we're gonna stop at that amazing Fish n'Chips place, cannot wait! I loved the reply you and Tor sent Aunt Leslie, definitely made me smile:) I hope the summer is kickin butt over there!

Love you all, and miss you so much today...:)

Hi Kelly, Yes, I do remember all the ruins and the bluest of skies. No, you do not get tired of them. Your flowers should last long in that weather. I worked at Davids school, putting together the bird feeders they made. Mrs. Raviol ask about you. I will give her your blog tomorrow. Fish and chips sounds so good. Enjoy soom for me. God bless you and I love you Kelly.Love Mom
