Hello blog,
Week one came as quickly as it had left us. It was great to be in our new home for a week and get settled in. Part of the settling in process meant starting classes which I happened to forget was the real reason why I was in Ireland. I suppose I am "STUDYING abroad!" The three classes that I am taking are a Comparative American Government, Ethics, and Anglo Irish Literature. Irish class is moving quite fast as it is only four weeks long. The first story that we read was "Castle Rackrent" by Edgeworth. It was rather difficult, yet was interesting to understand the history of rackrenting in Ireland.  All of the classes are going well, I just must stay focused!!
