A Trip To The Island Of Green

My adventure in Ireland for two weeks

A Trip To The Island Of Green

Between the weeks of May 17th to June 3rd, I was in Ireland.I stayed for the most part in Dublin with weekend visits to Blarney (the stone mostly) , Aran Islands, and Galway . It was a part of Irish Drama Class that I took back at Le Moyne, and then took classes with the Gaiety School of Acting. I had a lot of fun and an experience to last me a lifetime.

The people I met were so interesting and different I could write movies about. Each had their own backstory . They all did the same thing though. All asked me about myself and/or what it was like living under this current administration. I answered their question and changed the subject. What I was also surprised by how many Americans were over as well. It seemed like every third person was from the United States.

Finally, the places and food was amazing. The local pubs and restaurants had an at atmosphere that was completely different than I expected them to be. I tried new food with a sixty/forty success rate, which is which I won't tell you. My sweet tooth was in full force as I ate so many crepes , drank hot coco, and had candy to last me a lifetime.

I took so many pictures of the places I went that my phone went nuts. Each place had a different than before. Some stories of things I saw I can't put into words. The Aran Island were beautiful.

In short, I would recommend anyone go to Ireland if they want a great time.

Thanks for reading! :)

This is for the girls who have dealt with an emotionally, mentally, physically or verbally abusive father.

The ones who have grown up with a false lens of what love is and how relationships should be. The ones who have cried themselves to sleep wondering why he hurts you and your family so much. This is for all the girls who fall in love with broken boys that carry baggage bigger than their own, thinking it's their job to heal them because you watched your mother do the same.

Blair Waldorf Quote
"DESTINY IS FOR LOSERS. IT'S JUST A STUPID EXCUSE TO WAIT FOR THINGS TO HAPPEN INSTEAD OF MAKING THEM HAPPEN." - BLAIR WALDORF.

The world stopped in 2012 when our beloved show "Gossip Girl" ended. For six straight years, we would all tune in every Monday at 9:00 p.m. to see Upper Eastside royalty in the form of a Burberry headband clad Blair Waldorf. Blair was the big sister that we all loved to hate. How could we ever forget the epic showdowns between her and her frenemy Serena Van Der Woodsen? Or the time she banished Georgina Sparks to a Christian summer camp? How about that time when she and her girls took down Bart Bass? Blair is life. She's taught us how to dress, how to be ambitious, and most importantly, how to throw the perfect shade.

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

Recently I completed my freshman year of college, and boy, what an experience. It was a completely new learning environment and I can't believe how much I learned. In an effort to save time, here are the ten biggest lessons I learned from my first year of college.

1. Everyone is in the same boat

For me, the scariest part of starting school was that I was alone, that I wouldn't be able to make any friends and that I would stick out. Despite being told time and time again that everyone had these same feelings, it didn't really click until the first day when I saw all the other freshman looking as uneasy and uncomfortable as me. Therefore, I cannot stress this enough, everyone is feeling as nervous as you.
