things i love!

I honestly could not be more thankful for the group of people I'm here with. We aren't exactly the same, but we still somehow mesh extremely well. We hang out and people have been known to say, "oh hey, totally didn't expect you guys to be hanging out together!" - of course, this was completely sarcastic. We spend a fair amount of time together and our time spent apart is spent wondering where the others are (almost kidding.. but not really since we actively miss each other when we don't see each other.. kind of)

I suppose I could just include a few pictures of how awesome we are together. And by awesome, I mean, how completely abnormal we are and for some reason... society still accepts us.

Noel from UNC Chapel Hill - proved to be a wonderful friend! 

the best friends that were made before they even met each other. it was just meant to be. 

I feel like this caption almost needs an explanation. Basically, everyone knew who this Tom Langevin was... except for Rachel. So she took up talking about him as if he were her best friend. When the day finally came when they would meet, she automatically just assumed they were the best of friends already. And of course, Tom did not reject in the slightest. As seen by the picture... Oh, those drunken nights spent in Ireland.

this here is tom taking care of me...

Oh hey, Kara.. remember when Tom would be taking care of me?! That awkward moment when...

Rachel, Lucy and good ol' Noel. 

Ireland has been an adventure so far, to say the least. It's been filled with the traditional sight seeing as well as all of the not-so-touristy sight seeing of Ireland, which includes the visitation of many a pub. When in Ireland, do as the Irish do? We're only here for about four months so we better live up to it, right?

SCORE. LOVING IRELAND SO FAR.
