Summer?

Sure feels like it.

I did go to Dublin on Wednesday, but I got a late start and the buses were unusually late, so I didn't get into town until 4. And I just assumed that the museum closes at 6, and I need more than two hours in a museum, so I didn't go. I went to a cafe I've passed by a bunch of times. It's kind of cool cause it's a specialty tea place. It was too warm to be drinking tea, but I left without having eaten or having any tea, so it was necessary. Walked around a bit and ended up just sitting in the sun on a bench on a bridge writing Emma a letter. I really enjoyed it.

Yesterday was gorgeous. I've been meaning to get up to the Carton house since September. Madison made it sound like it was really far, but it's not at all. I think it's like 3 miles from my apartment. About. But yeah I walked up there: through town, along the Carton Ave, through the golf course, up a hill, and there it is. It's impressive, but it's just a hotel or something now. And there's this Hermes fountain in front of it. He's the god of sports, so maybe it's proper.

Once you get up there and see it that's pretty much it. It's not like there's anything to really do there. But there's this long lake going through the golf course that you can sit next to and just chill. I brought my book but didn't end up reading. It's much more relaxing to just lay in the sun. I love when you lay in the sun with your eyes closed for a while and when you open them again everything looks faded.

I was really sleepy when I got back here though. I crashed before midnight for once. It was kind of hard because there were all kinds of parties going on. I think all exams are over so everyone is leaving which means that they all have to get shitty one more time. Aoife is leaving today or tomorrow though. That's exciting.

Today is gorgeous. I'm just packing though. Maybe in a bit I'll go do something.

Tomorrow I have to get up and catch 3 buses to Belfast. Maddie got our Titanic tickets for 5pm. And then we'll probably just go to a couple pubs. I'm staying only one night.
