Day five perhaps?

It's really hard to write when I actually get to talk to you, but I want to keep my work ethic up.

So waking up this morning was difficult, and Emily was talking to me at the beginning, but stopped after breakfast. She was being very cold and uninclusive for most of the day. Ah, Blogger, I know that's not a word.

So breakfast was pretty much the same, and then since I was in the second horseback riding group I slept in the lobby. I really liked my horse; her name was Pepsi and she was kind of lazy, but once I got her into it she was really great. I forgot how great riding is because I haven't done it for such a long time, and I kind of want to get back into it.

So after horseback riding was Blarney Castle which I explored with, actually, the same group of boys I explored Bunratty Castle with. Well, just about. I couldn't manage to kiss the stone because I was too scared, and it was terrible how everybody made fun of me... in a way I felt bad because this woman lent me her coat so I could go and not be absolutely freezing, and then I didn't even kiss the stone.

But anyways. I forgot about lunch! We only had 20 minutes to locate and buy lunch after horseback riding, so Sophie, Birdie, Mary and Chris's mom and I all went to a Costa. I got a chicken salsa panini and a really delicious almond raspberry type pastry and a Fanta. The soda didn't really go all that well with the spicy sandwich, but whatever.

So the hotel stuff was awkward... which I told you about. It's cool, though. I'll be alright.

Told you a lot about dinner too, it's not that important or memorable, so again, it's cool.

And... going out with Jake and Chris was awesome! I really enjoyed it. We saw a lot of beautiful sights and talked about interesting things... now I know who to hang out with if I want to go about in the night and not get drunk. It's weird, because at this trip I seem to be gravitating more toward hanging out with the boys rather than the girls.

And now Emily wants to check her e-mail and hopefully all she needs is space.
