Hello!! Sorry for the lack of posts in the past month. As you've probably guessed, school has been very busy and sleep becomes my first priority when not studying. I haven't had too many adventures to share with you and didn't think you'd be interested in hearing about metabolic pathways or pharmacokinetics. Here's the news of my life...

A few weeks ago, my rommate and I went to the smallest of the Aran Islands (Inis eer) for a day. The boat that takes you there is quite small and we got very wet on the way over (both from rain and It is a really neat little place...we spent the whole day walking along quaint windy roads and rugged beaches. Here's a few pictures...

View of the island from the boat

Stone fence with the Cliffs of Moher in the distance

Ship wreck...it sunk off shore and was liften onto land by a storm in the 1960's

Lighthouse (ironically right next to the ship wreck)

Small lake....the island is known for its birds.

but I like the cows better...somehow I get such a kick out of them!

This past weekend I moved out of residence and into a new apartment!! It is quite nice and best of all, very quiet! It is a bit strange getting used to the total silence of living alone but I am happy to have the space and freedom of my own "home". It also makes it feel just a little closer to Chris and I being together again.

Here's a couple pictures of Galway Sunsets...

4 More weeks and I'll be home for Christmas!!!
