Unique Galway

Hello all! Today was another good day, despite the rainy weather. I did a lot of studying, got to the gym, took a lesson in Sean-Nos dancing (which is the origin of step dancing), and did a little shopping! I have decided to write my Society paper on the differences and similarities between the Irish education system and that of the US. Not too difficult, and definitely interesting.

A few tid bits about Galway today:

-When it rains, there are slugs everywhere! I will take some pictures for you; you have to watch where you walk! I like to name them as I go. ;c)

-It stays light until 11:00 at night here! It's great for going out later, but it does make it harder to go to sleep.

-Galway is said to be a very fashion-forward city. If this is true, then I have to tell you to prepare for the return of full 1980s fashion - neon and all! It was everywhere in the mall today -- reaallllyyyy scary!

I'm hoping for a relaxing evening -- I studied a lot during the day today, so I deserve a break!
