Hai everyone!
Like most of you know, I went back to Ireland for one week. The plan at first was to go to montpollier a week, in October, But since ill be having a new job from september on, october wil probably be a buisy week. So I decided to surprise the guys, who where still in Ireland.
I whatsapped Sarah and we booked the flight together. 22nd august would be the day that Sarah and myself would fly from Eindhoven back to Ireland. And we did.
The surprise would be a fact in less then 24 hours! Since only like 4 people knew that i was joining sarah to Ireland we were both quite excited.
Also since I had to lie a bit to Tobias, Julien, Mathieu and Magali about not being able to come back to Ireland with sarah.
Oh well..
Then the second thing of the trip: Flying. I never flew before. in the end it wasn't that special... the lift of was quite 'cool' and the scenery was awesome, but the whole travelling part is no big deal.
When I think about what journey Mona and myself made coming to Ireland by car, and by -scary- boat, i have no regrets of making that decision. Back then (i think we both had) i had a feeling of: Yeah.. we made it to Ireland! whooo!! UL here we come!
And now it was like, oh.. seriously? we're in Ireland already? It has to be.. hmm..
Then we had to go to dublin heuston because we found a cheap train ticket to Limerick.
Sorry... Sorry... SORRY!!!! (everybody looked at us, accept for the old guy sitting in our chair. SORRY!! ur kinda sitting in our chair? we reserved these?
Ok, it was weird sending an old guy away, but he.. all the other seats were booked too!
then we made it to Limerick. We jumped into a cab, and we told the cabdriver not to pull over, to near to the gate. Sarah checked where they were sitting, (tobias etc.) and then I had to run around the building.. ^^
Sarah got her key to her apartment, and we met outside again to put our stuff in her apartment. Then she went back downstairs and I went outside, and 'hiding' next to the balcony.
The surprise was almost happening! ^^
Sarah told them: I have a present for you... Its on the balcony.. At first Mathieu tried to look through the window.. "no, you have to look outside".. and when they were walking out on the balcony I 'ran into them' with a big hug and marching into the living room...
so funny! It was a surreal kinda moment... quite funny to see! ^^
So there I was, all pumped of excitement.. And there they were all like: is this real life?! :P
After a quick demonstration of my new guitar skills, we went off to bed, a nice night.
The next day wasn't anything special. I just went over to their apartment, and had coffee as if nothing ever changed. Unfortunately the boys were all really busy with work.. (yes it's true ;-)) but that was grand anyway.
This night we eat rice together, and we went off to a nice night at Locke's bar.. which was awesomely unreal like! ;-)
Oh by the way: another surprise: Justine also came to Ireland! Thats cool!
the next day justine and myself went off to penny's to do some serious shopping. We both shopped till we dropped, and walked home with two heavy bags full of clothes and other stuff...
And then: Hail started bursting loose from the sky! OMG! thank goodness we had an umbrella, but it didn't help a lott.. we sought shelter in this porch thing of this house where we were at.
Then when it started to get a little bit less we walked back home. And showed off our stuff.. Grand. :)
the next day was thursday. In the morning we didn't do anything special But at night it was fair grand like! we went off to this pub called foley's were we enjoyed a show of traditional Irish music, performed by friends of Nick, a friend of Sarah.. ;-)
By the way, in this week we met 3 other germans, who also decided to live in Parkviewhall during their study abroad. This was really weird, it was the whole 'meeting new people in this erasmus sphere..' all over agian..
Knowing what kind of an fair grand like awesome time they will have..
They joined us this night to, together with a friend of Mathieu, JB, who came to visit Mathieu, to join him to travel back to France..
After foley's we went of to Nancy's... (after making a stop at burger king, where Magali crowned us.. ^^)
This night at Nancy's was really a good time! Dancin' and talking to others... (i got a compliment for my 'Irish accent'.. yay ^^) Some of us were drunk and the other were just having a good time 'on their own', like without too much alcohol... haha Nice one!!
The next day we went off to Aubars, in town, to have a nice coffee. Mathieu, Magali, JB, Justine and myself went off to town so, and mathieu wanted to get some stuff from penny's. This scared Justine and myself but ok, we dared to enter the penny's again.
And this was dangerous, because we both bought some new stuff. again.. haha!
The rest also bought some nice stuff, and that was closure of our shopping in Ireland.. ;-)!
at night we watched this really weird film, before i went of to UL, to get the JJ back to dublin.
The whole travelling went fair enough, and I was back in Groningen at like 2pm. (after leaving at 1 AM... gosh..)
but now i got to show off my new penny's stuff and sharing some new awesome stories.
Now i'm looking foreward to the 23th of september when some are coming to Amsterdam to see Mona and me!!! (and just travelling up to Groningen. ok? ;)) Who's joining?!
And then I hope to travel to some other places after newyears..
(or maybe we should celebrate it together in like Berlin, or Montpellier? ;-))
Some Locke's bar/Foleys/ Nancy's pictures are already on facebook.. Have a look and leave a comment i'd say! :)
I think this is the week in a nutshell.. but it can be summerised in 1 word: Unreal! :D
Miss ye already! but let's meet soon again.. :D
Slán!
