Well my internship is over.  I've got a lot of spare time now which is both good and bad.
I'm so excited because we're going to Tunisia in 2 weeks.  I'm a bit nervous because it's a Muslim country, but that also makes it 10x more fascinating.  I'm also glad I've been reading the Quran and learning so much more about Islam in the past few months.
The cities are going to be fascinating and the beach... omg I cannot wait to lie on the beach.  It's going to be amazing.
I miss home though and I really am sad I'll be missing Halloween, but we'll go to a party here instead so it should be ok. It's just that the seasons in Chicago are so wonderful.  I really really do not like Ireland's constant crappy weather.  I feel angered by it, which is stupid, of course, but I really do.

In other news I think I might be allergic to Apollo.  My nose will not stop running and I can't stop sneezing while I'm at home with him.  I really love him and I hope I've just got a cold since the weather is changing.  Blah.

Tonight I want bratwurst for dinner!  Oktoberfest is still going on and they've got such delicious food for sale.  Unfortunately they don't have any of the fun crafts or chocolate or cool stuff for sale like they do in Chicago, but at least it's something.

Alright, errands to run.

I'm at work.  Out of things to do.  I'm hungry.

The other day at Chapters I, for the first time in my life, found the TY book on Korean.  It's exactly what I've wanted for years.  I wish I could have found it sooner.  I love grammar.  Love love love.

I'm hungry.
It's Friday, therefore I am happy.  I've had a cold for about 3 weeks but that's ok.  Lars and I will be playing Halo: Reach tonight most likely.  Then the party is tomorrow.
Maria is back in town <3
Time to find something to do!

I woke up late last night and I think I had an out of body experience.  I went to turn to get more comfortable, and I felt like.. >>I<< was moving, my mind and soul or whatever, but my body was just lying there and I couldn't control it.  It was in the night so maybe I was still half-asleep or something, but I do that all the time and for some reason this was just the weirdest feeling in the world.  So strange..

So after seeing my previous post I realize it's time to write something again.
I've been busy with my internship every day.  It's really really great.  And they're paying me.  Score.

I've been feeling so good lately too.  Because I have to get up so early every day I always sleep regularly and like a baby.  Well Lars is doing Ramadan so he gets up really early and eats a ton of stuff and that wakes me up which kind of sucks, but it's not so bad.  He's so strong and I love him for it.

So today was the first morning I went for a run.  It was tough, I won't lie, but it helped me wake up, and it didn't put me far behind at all.  I got home by the time I would usually be waking up, so I was able to get ready in the same amount of time without feeling rushed.  It was nice.  I just really really hope I will be able to keep it up at least every other morning.  Every time in the past that I've tried to go running on a regular basis I always lose motivation, but I'm thinking that because I'll be setting my alarm earlier, I'll be forced to do it.  Which is nice.
Also, I have to walk for an hour every day to get to and from work, so that's some pretty good exercise.  I just overall feel really really good lately.
It will definitely be nice to get paid next weekend though.

Alright, back to work.

This is day 1 of my sugar-detox and I'm already having cravings.  Sugar is totally a drug.  I get it now.  I want it out of my system.
