Up the Rebels!

"That's a fookin' foul if I've ever seen one!"
"whip his legs off 'em!"
The shouting and cheers were near deafening--there was even some singing to be had. I loved every second of it (video will hopefully follow soon!) Today was my second day in Cork and it was the GAA all Ireland Hurling Final. "who won?!" right? sadly, although Cork by all means should have won, the game tied and so it continues next week.
     Tomorrow promises to be a busy day as I will be off questing for a phone, internet for my laptop--a laptop to put said internet on--and there is not only a Welcome Meeting and a City Walking Tour, but a Cinema Showing and a "class party"  which promises to be fun.
      We got groceries today and a few other things for the dorm which is nice. We walked down to the city center and found what local shops are there--it's nice that it's all in relative walking distance too. My roommates are wonderful and I am anticipating a great year...
     P.S. Thank you to all my choir instructors--because I have been practiced to match vowels I have practically picked up an Irish accent.
     P.P.S. GO REBELS!
