Dia dhuit!

That's how you say hello in Irish. I think it's said something like "dee-yuh hoits." Pronunciation is going to kill me. "How are you?" is: cen chaoi a bhfuil tu?" with an accent on the e in cen and the u in tu. I can't remember how to say it at all. If you can figure out this website, it's a speech synthesizer that'll read whatever you put in there: www.abair.ie
When we were registering they told us that Irish 2 next semester is not a continuation of Irish 1 that we're taking right now. But when we got to class today, which was the first Irish class we've had, they said that it really is. And then they separated us into to two groups--people on here for one semester and people here for the whole year. I'm in the full year group, even though I didn't register for Irish next semester. The whole registration thing here is really unorganized and a pain in the ass. My schedule still isn't finalized. I have to get it all settled by next Friday though.

Earlier was the societies and clubs fair. I signed up for five things: MUCK, the international society, traditional Irish music, bad mitten, and Greek classics. MUCK is the kayaking and canoeing club. The international society goes on weekend trips all over the place. I don't know what the other ones do. I'm assuming you can just show and play bad mitten if you're in the bad mitten club. If I have to buy a racket or a birdie though, I'm out. I'm not buying a canoe either though.

I haven't been drinking nearly enough beer the last two weeks. Any actually.

It was sunny today. No rain at all. Everyone was sitting in all the grass all across campus. You really do learn to appreciate the nice days here.
