I can't wait to see you again
I am sorry I haven't updated my blogg for two weeks...but I have been so incredibly busy and stressed out. I have so many open cases and everything at work and am trying to manage that without letting my customers suffer and get even more unhappy...
Anywho, I have had time to do a few things this week =)
I went out this Wednesday with one of the tier 1 guys from Portugal, Ricardo. Cool guy. I have promised him for weeks to go out and have a beer and I had a real rough day Wednesday. We went to the city centre and had some food at this sooooo American diner thing and ate burgers and drank milkshake. Fun as hell! And then we had a few beers at Crane Lane. Great night.
And Friday. Went with Mia to city centre after work to shop some shoes, eat and grab a whiskey. The whiskey since my throat was killing me. We had a great time and went to Crane Lane (the place to be). Francesco, the Italian guy in our team (one of my absolute favorites) popped by and joined us. He is the funniest man I have met, and with him you are guaranteed a great evening. We sat there and just enjoyed life and not being at work (horrible customers). Mia had to go home a bit earlier, but me and Francesco sat there til about 10.30 and then I felt I should go home to my dear boyfriend since I had promised to bring him food.
Francesco had asked if we would like to join him and another Italian guy from our team on Sunday, when they were going on a trip. Sure, said I =)
Saturday. Mia came over. We watched movies and ate pizza. Just awesome to spend some time with a girl and talk about silly stuff.
And this morning. Woke up and got ready. Went down to city centre where I met Francesco and Jean Luca. We were going to Youghal, where Ray, one of the guys from the Dutch team is living. He sits opposit me at work =)
Took the car out from Cork city and got lost. These two Italians are the worst map readers I have ever met. They didn't even have a map!! No wonder we got lost every ten min. I have never laughed so much. And I took pictures.
When we finally arrived in Youghal, after a numerous amount of detours, we met Ray and went for lunch. Beautiful town. A coast town and I just loved it! We decided to go to this historical seaside village about 15 min drive from Youghal.
Arrived. Nothing but a beach and some lost dogs. Where was the history? Where was the old houses? Where was the people?
We stood there like idiots, looking at the beach and walked for a few min before we went back to Youghal for a beer or two (or actually Irish coffee and white wine)
These guys are great! I had a great time and it was fun. We came back to Cork arount 7 tonight, but it felt like we had been gone for soo much longer. (we got lost on the way back again, I admire Jean Luca for managing that)
So this was my super duper great weekend! And now it's back to work tomorrow. I am soooo busy, but I am relaxed and am looking forward to going out for a few drinks this week as well and also the cinema. Who I am going with, I am not sure yet, Mia or Ricardo or maybe both.
I am finally starting to get friends here. And I realize how much I actually likes to live here in Ireland again. I do miss home, but I love this country (even though the weather is shit).The people I have met, the things I have done, the things I will do, it is all something that I would not even have come close to experience at home.
What I really want to say: I am happy again. Genuinely happy.
