Spring Break

Two more weeks until spring break. Although that would seem to be a good thing, the whole college thing once again gets in the way. Since I’ll be away for the entire break, I will have to finish and hand in not only the papers due before the start of break, but also the ones due the Monday and Wednesday after the end of the break. All in all, it looks like I will have to finish up four papers, complete a stack of scholarship applications and evaluate the feasibility of an internship this coming summer or fall, all by the all too looming date of March 20th :D
On the bright side, I went over some of the travel details for Tenerife and southern France earlier in the day and just booked my flight to Munich. My travel schedule for spring break is as follows;

March 24th- March 28th - Garmisch, Germany [Ski town]
March 28th - April 1st - Munich, Germany
April 1st - April 3rd - Dublin, Ireland
April 3rd - April 11th - Canary Islands
April 11th- April 13th - Barcelona, Spain
April 14th - April 20th - Renting a car and road trip throughout southern France

Lookin pretty damn exciting.

Things on the sports end have been going well. I caught the end of a UCC rugby match the other week, and have been keeping up to date with the six nations tourny and cork’s hurling team. I’ve also been enjoying inline hockey a lot, actually more so than any sport I’ve played before. The past couple weeks have been great since the club has been able to rent a larger gym and have everybody in full equipment including two goalies. On Friday, I played a round of golf in Kinsale. I really miss golf, and had a great time…even though it ended up costing an arm and a leg due to transportation costs (i.e. taxi). I shot a 62 on 9 holes which is terrible but not much worst than what I shoot back home. Hopefully, by the end of the summer I’ll be able to break 100 for 18.
