I've had a few hours nap, and I'm feeling considerably better. I just had dinner with my host family and my roommate. My host family, by the way, is wonderful. Very welcoming and friendly, funny, and lots of fun to talk to. I also like my roommate, Caitlin, a lot. I think we're going to get along very well.
I don't have any scheduled activities tomorrow, so I think our host family is going to show us around the city a bit. There's a catholic church within walking distance, so I'll also be catching a mass. Our situation here is very nice and convenient. There's a bus stop a very short walk away, which we can take either in to town or out to the college at Dun Laoghairé (pronounced dun leary, folks). We have a bus pass for our whole stay here that works for all the buses and trains. This is ever so very excellent.
At any rate, I'm very happy to be here. We still haven't received a schedule for classes and outings, so everything's still a bit up in the air, but it looks like getting around is going to be easy and I can't wait to start seeing everything and exploring the city. But first, a shower and a little bit more sleep;)
