Day Three

It's another day in Belfast, Ireland, and I would have to concur that today has been my favorite thus far. We woke up and grabbed some breakfast and headed to this sleek, modern, cozy, charming coffee house called Clements. Okay, honestly, the coffee was disgusting. I didn't like it. I mean it wasn't bad, but nothing beats Madcap in my book. But it was still a great experience.

We came back to the house and had a lecture on art. It was interesting. The only reason I think so, is because I was born with many creative genes...handed down from my momma. She would be so proud. Now I can go home and intelligently talk about art and color and all that jazz. The paintings we saw were beautiful! I loved them! I sat there in awe, and wishing I was that good. Learning to really do art would take a lot of precious time that I just do not have.

After we grabbed lunch and we were supposed to go to the Ulster Art Museum, but one of our hosts was ill. So, we had the opportunity to go into the city and explore, and shop, and eat. So three other girls and I wandered around. And by wandered, I'm quite serious. We had no clue where we were! But, it was a blast. Loved every minute! We found some amazing hipster cafes. And some vintage shops...my favorite! We also had thee best tasty treats you cold imagine! They lived up to their name let me tell you! We took a double decker bus through the city.

My favorite color is red so I naturally bought a red (soccer) futbol jersey. Now I am broke..not that I wasn't before though. And actually that isn't natural of me, considering I am non-athletic, but I've traveled to two different countries. One in Latin America and one in south America. They are big into soccer, so I thought why not now? And it's Liverpool, England, and according to many reliable sources they are a top notch team. So that's exciting. Maybe people will take me as more aggressive. Maybe they'll be like, "Whoa watch out! She's wearing a soccer jersey. She's tough!"...okay, probably not. I gave up on being tough a while back.

We came back after and ate dinner and here I am. Typing away. It was a free night. I suppose I should have been doing my homework, but it was nice to catch up and relax before a busy semester. I actually ended up adding one more class. I don't actually know if that was a wise thing to do. Last semester I totally failed (not literally...) so this will be interesting, and a challenge.

Alright. That's all. I may or may not write tomorrow as well.

Be blessed!
