A new place for pictures

www.nd.edu/~afleck

The new place for all things me. Except my blog. That will stay here. To be helpful, I've linked back to my blog from my new home page. You're welcome.

So I'm back in Americaland for the foreseeable future. Scary. Time to do a run down of my past four months:

(By the way, I always like to get the bad out first)

Cons:
Worst travel day(s) ever.

A big pile of rocks that we drove 2 hours to. Whoops, I mean Stonehenge.

O'Boyle. Not his class (which was fun), just him.

Being really, really bad at keeping my blog current.

Being sick/having health issues (read: losing a contact in Dublin) every trip away from London.

Foreign Languages. C'mon, just speak English already. Selfish Europeans.

Sports Cafe, the most average place in London. For that matter, the line at Walkabout on Monday's sucked too.

Felling like I was 17 all over again (not being able to vote), wasting my new 21-year oldship (18 to drink in the U.K.)

Dollars and Pounds, not one and the same. Not even freaking close.

Having to come home.


Pros:
Sunrise the first day in the flats.

Having the best roomate ever.

Pubs!

Italy...I can still taste the gelatto.

The Vatican. I'm holier than thou.

Bradshaw's Theology Class/Mark's Philo Class

Shakespeare, Shakespeare, Shakespeare!

Parental Visit...happy Easter to me!

Wong Kei...best 4 pounds ever. All 7 times.

Hollywood? Bollywood? Mollywood.

Game night. Woot family/Taboo!

Maid day...mmm, so fresh and so clean clean.

Rereading books and realizing they take place in your backyard (i.e. Hitchhiker's Guide...well, before the Earth is destroyed, that is).

Spain!!!! Bocadillos, Sun, the beach, and a whole lot of partying. So much for a relaxing break...

Doner Kebabs.

Dublin my pleasure...and my Guinness intake.

Getting through Paris while only getting hit by a Parisian once.

Having more stamps in my passport than I know what to do!

Safe (and smooth) travels home.

An amazing opportunity, an amazing semester; thank you to those I met, befriended, and shared this with. I love you all.
