It was an amazing time. We got to sing in vast, echoing Cathedrals and we visited ancient castles. Mr. P. said that we were "let into the back doors of places that wouldn't have ever let you in the front doors"
There's so much I could talk about. I just felt so at home. Everything was beautiful. The concerts were amazing...The people were full of drama, but I made friends. That moves me on to my next topic: males
I went to Ireland imagining that I was going to make some friends and continue in desperate crushes. A few days into the trip I realized that I had a something for Dan Sousa. So heather, christine, and I went to hang out with him...to try to get him to like me back. He was rooming with Jesse Crystal and Eric Harrison. I got some attention from dan and found out how truly amazing quiet jesse was.
One night jesse invited us to play cards in their room and i was up for it because of dan. that night i was all over dan. later we called their room looking for someone and i ended up talking to dan for a while. it was pretty amazing.
heather and christine wanted me to end up sitting with him so they ditched me and dan ended up taken so jesse offered to sit with me. he's a cool kid.
so the next day he ended up ignoring me completly. really confusing.
That night he sat at dinner with emma, ashley, becky, and a bunch of others and they talked to him. apparently two guys liked me. two guys!! WHO?!
SO i find out later it's jesse.
funny because THAT DAY i realized that jesse would be a very very good match for me. he loves his family. he doesn't drink or smoke. he loves his dogs. and he fits in with heather and me.
soooooo. after some frusration i got christine to talk to him:
"do you like tina"
"maybe"
"yes or no"
"yes"
"well she likes you too"
"really?"
"yeah so go for it"
"blushes"
and he also talked to becky:
"what to i do!"
"hold her hand on the plane"
"okay"
so he did. like i had my arm around his and i was resting on his shoulder and i was playing with his bracelts and he held my hand. and he and dan kept whispering and i think he was telling him to ask me out. which he did. :)
so we held hands the whole plane ride.
then on the bus ride home we talked and then we shared his headphones and i put my head on his shoulder and he rested his head on mine and at one point i simply put my hand on his arm, not expecting a response and he rested his hand on mine. and later we held hands and it was cute.
:)
i'm so happy.
