Hello my dear readers, how are yous faring these days? I am trying to pick up some local lingo while I am here, so humor me a wee bit, please. Last Monday, I felt that I was really getting comfortable working at the centre. I felt like I really got the secretary thing down, and […]

On Sunday the 9th of June, I woke up early and went downstairs to wait for a cab to St. George’s Market. A little bird was stuck in the area inside the first set of doors, and it was flying frantically into the glass wall trying to get out. After it barged into the glass […]

The day after the Ballycastle trip, the whole group decided to go to Helen’s Bay because the weather was wonderful again. We got up in the morning, bused into the train station, and then took a train to the beach. It was a short train ride, but the day was so nice that the train […]

The Sunday after our Derry trip, we attended Family Fun Day in Lisburn. Two of our group is working with the organization that hosts it every year, so we all decided to attend to support them. It was yet another early day. Though we had planned to cab to the train station and go from […]

Greetings, my readers! Once again, I must apologize for my inexcusable absence over the past five days. My work schedule has been alternating between 9-5 and 1-9, and it is really messing with me. The internet has also been awful because a large group of Americans have been staying next door and are stealing away […]
