Day 8

I'm starting to get a big overwhelmed with school work. Everything is piling up and I'm falling behind. Tomorrow we have an essay and a poem due as well as a poetry test and on Monday I've got an oral presentation, another essay due, and we have to read seven chapters of The Picture of Dorian Gray and answer 5 question for each one. Plus we'r going to be away in Killarney all day Saturday so I'll have to do most of it Sunday. Anyway I'll stop complaining now and tell you what I did today. It was the first day that it actually really rained. And it was cold. I got soaked walking to classes and dinner and home and to the Cork Gaol. That's what we did today; went on a tour of the old jail. It was cool. The guy told us about different prisoners and at the end we watched a movie about it. I fell asleep in the movie but the end was good. There were prisoners named Mary and Henry :-) After jail we went to dinner. I had carrots and a bun and a really good desse rt thingy. Then I walked home in the rain (it's a 25 minute walk) and just as I was waiting to cross the street across from my apartment 3 cars in a row went by really fast and splashed me all over my face and everything. It was a great day. See pictures below.
