i dont believe i want to come home.
im in galway right now... i head tomorrow for clare island, fabulously remote.
galways lovely though and im glad im spending another day here next week.
all ive eaten today is some fruit and fibre cereal i found on sale, and some carrot juice.
i honestly dont know what im doing coming home before summers over, when my visa doesnt expire until september. id have to pay to change my flight, but its a thought. dunno what id do... itd be fun to work at a hostel or something. i cant just travel around, i am sooo beyond broke. hahhah. hence the welfare food situation.
its so bizarre travelling alone. im so used to having jules there to chat to. needless to say ive been writing in my journal probably more than is healthy, but at least ill remember this whole trip to the detail. and i actually dont mind the solitude too much, me being the introvert that i am. met a guy in my room last night from virginia though, and went out for a drink with him and then walked around all this morning before he left. hes doing the WWOOFer program and im intrigued because i looked into that before, so hes going to email me and let me know how it goes for him.
i just became so sad, listening to him... hes just starting out on his adventures and mine are drawing to a close... how sad is that! so im thinking sticking out the whole summer might not be such a bad thing in the end. since i left moyles court i havent missed home as much. i think really i just hated it there. hahah
jules is home by now... soo strange to think about. i cant wait to see her again. itll be so weird to see her in victoria though. she didnt want to go home either.
i hope i get to the island alright tomorrow. i have a vague idea about the two-three buses and then the ferry that i have to take. hahha. the b&b ive got booked is right by the castle of granuaile o'malley, one of my favourite people in irish history. im incredibly excited. dunno what ill do there though... a lot of journal writing i suppose? hopefully itll be gorgeous out and i can lie on the beach. id look into horseback riding but i think im cursed, and besides i dont have anymore legs left to be bitten and i dont know what theyd go for next.
i wish someone would make up my mind about whether to come home when i have it booked or whether to stay longer. ill have to decide soon.
i think ill go "and watch the sun go down on galway bay"
ahhhhhhhireland.
