My name is Katlyn. I am studying abroad in Dublin, Ireland. These are my adventures.

Today I learned that even in a foreign country college classes are still going to be boring. Sitting through two hours of Financial Management was similar to torture. I keep reminding myself that I’m here for the classes, but it’s so much easier to be here for the fun!
I’ve also learned that after 3 days straight of the same food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner any food will be hard to swallow. It is now hard for me to look at Nutella & toast in the same way, so I switched to spaghetti noodles & sauce. Now that is getting old!
Today I treated (and I use that word lightly) myself to a tuna sandwich.
To all of you that wish you were with me, aren’t I making it sound like a blast??
In all honesty though I have had the time of my life here!
Come vist & send packages :)

I know I’ve only been in Dublin a while (less than a week), but this is a quick slideshow to catch you up!

First day of classes at Griffith!
I learned the hard way to figure out which building is what long before 5 minutes until class starts!

Saw the sun for the first time today before it disappeared, then this happened.
I fully understand the term “harsh Irish winds” now!

Third day in Ireland & my name is already in the Ireland National Police (Garda) registry.
I just wanted to start the trip off with a high speed chase.

This is I place that I’ll never forget, but wish I didn’t remember.
So far the only luck I have had in Ireland is bad luck.
The Irish do have a saying, that "bad luck comes in threes", so hopefully my bad luck has run its course!

Of course on my first full day in Ireland
I had to go to my first Irish pub and have my first Irish beer with a few of me lads.

Today was a day of goodbyes.
Goodbye to Mama & Daddy, goodbye to sweet tea, and good bye to Tennessee!
