It has been a crazy last couple of weeks in Dublin.  I’ve had family visits and lots of school work recently.  Because at Trinity most of our grades are based on a paper and a final or just a final, I had most of my graded assignments for the entire semester in the last two weeks.  It was stressful, but I managed to get everything done!  Classes finished up on Friday, and now we have a three week study period for exams in May.  We have such a long time to study for exams because there’s only one exam period for the year instead of one each semester.  That means that a lot of people have exams based on the material they learned in their classes last semester in addition to their classes this semester. 

I’m taking the first ten days to travel.  We have a great trip planned.  We’re headed to Berlin, Prague, Budapest, and Krakow.  I’m so excited to see all of these cities.  I’ve heard only great things about all of them and we’re going to learn so much history on this trip : ) I’m sure my next blog post will be a really exciting recount of our trip!  Plus some pre-exam anxiety…..
