SNOWCAR! Not BOXCAR!

This is what I missed in the boro!  Haha my mom sent me this through email... there is my car with lots and lots of snow... that probs melted by the end of the day!  But it's crazy to see it sitting there because when you are gone out of the country, you just think, how how how can my other part of my life still be at home... no I don't mean my car I just mean everybody and everyone I left temporarily...

Just Some Art. "The UGE"

I'm doing a lot of studies on the language difference here in Ireland... for 3 people say tree and it's brilliant.  I get to hang out with my friend Laura a lot and I listen to the things she says because she is Irish and enjoyable... my next project is very exciting... this is just one painting out of the lot I'm starting... :



this is my cheese that I made into a little cottage...:

You Know, You are My Valentine. :)

HELLO SINGLE AND NON-SINGLE PEOPLE OUT THERE... Happy V-tine's Day.


I hope you have a Brilliant day today and don't let Halmark bring you down because they make a lot of money today.  Also, they probably own chocolate companies as well... which means if you get chocolate they make money... if you are depressed and eat chocolate... they still make money... OH WELL!  Haha... so this Valentine goes out to all those moms and dads!!!  Thank you mom and dad for always getting me a box of chocolates on Valentine's day because I didn't get a box from anyone else.  Haha... but seriously... SMILE TODAY :)

JAPE is FIGHTING LIKE APES?




So this past weekend was AY-MAZING! It started out with the weekly Irish Studies trip with Gordon D'Arcy, the smartest man alive. We went to this amazing place on a mountain that looked like a runway from America's Next Top Model. Then I headed to Galway with my Irish friend Laura and my new friend Zoe (with two dots above the e). It was nice to be the only American around for the trip to Galway, kind of weird as well haha. We went to go see this band called Jape, AWESOME! The show was at the Warwick which is a hotel in Galway. Before Jape we headed to the hotel which Laura won on the radio... so we didn't have to sleep in a hostel or at a random person's house haha. Then we went to the show and the opening act was Fight like Apes. They were super randomly cool... the lead singer was a girl and she had brilliant style... And then we danced danced danced. The lead singer of Fight like Apes came down and danced with us during Jape's show. It was almost of reminder of the States, like when I go to some shows. Then after the shows we went to like 3 indie dance clubs and danced for hours! I had such a great time just breaking it down like I always end up doing... true true true story loves... then we went shopping during the day and ate some good food...


the bus ride home wasn't that great... I almost got sick and stuffz.


SUNDAY! So, today we actually went to a Point to Point race which is a horse race thing... it was insane to actually see a horse race, in ireland. I've never seen a horse race and it was a super sweet experience... a horse did fall over though... I almost cried b/c I thought they may have to kill it b/c it was hurt... but then it got up and phew my heart was so happy at that point (to point)... the jockeys had awesome uniforms. They totally inspired me more and more about my clothes making which is going to happen when I arrive back in the states...


rewind to Saturday night... when I got back from galway I watched Garden State with some of my friends here in the Burren. I got up from the movie (when it was finished) and had an amazing 40 mins of silence sitting in my room just thinking about my life and how it's going to be when I get back to the states and how I'm living now... it just was wonderful to actually have that time to think and relax... I'm stoked b/c there are many things I am going to do when I get back home... this is one of my homes now as well... b/c I'm comfortable here... but I do still have a piece of me at home... my family, friends, and those passerbys. I hope that everyone back in the States are having an amazing time there at school, home, etc. Remember "If you can't laugh at yourself, life's gonna seem a whole lot longer than you like." (Garden State)

Long Time, No Blog?

Well, Well, Well.

It has been quite a many of days since my last postage. Right now I'm listening to the Rocket Summer, thinking of great times with R-games jaming on my way to Richmond! :) Shout out to all my Frontier friends, who read this haha, and those who don't read it as well! Today is Wed, which is the day we get to ourselves. I've painted a canvas white and then grey for my graphic painting project. I've designed some pages of a fake magazine... which maybe will one day be real... I'm not going to post the name b/c it's secret. ;).

I'm on my way to building a contemporary fort in my bedroom... my roomie does not know this yet... or at least she will tonight! My friend Oshkosh Josh and I are going to build an amazing fort!!! Then we will pretend to look at the stars. It will be a fun adventure which I'm totally game for! Tonight is set-dancing night but I've got a cold so I don't think I'm going to go dance. But tomorrow night is a dance party so I'll def. feel better for that!!! Right now I'm being a typy-typerson... probs being loud and annoying to all those peeps in the same room as me... that's life I supose. Everyday I'm learing more and more about my new BCA friends as well as myself. It's an interesting journey.

Sometimes smiles occur.
Sometimes laughter.
Sometimes tears.
Sometimes Fears.
WHAT. yes. And I'm okay with that, at least for now.

xoxo
