Dublin - Jervis

Headed to Dublin on Saturday with the housemates. We took a train from Athlone Station to Dublin's Heusten Station. Living expenses here ain't cheap, the return train ride cost 10 euros and that was on promotion! The inside of the train looks pretty much like an airplane, it comes with table and power plugs.

The ride was around 1.5 hour, upon reaching, we took a LONG walk to the Irish Art Museum which was originally a Royal Hospital. We had lunch at a nearby bar and people were drinking beer at 2pm in the afternoon! The museum was as usual - magnificent! The amount of space they have and their architecture wow-ed us. They are stone buildings you'll only see on TV and Harry Potter.

We took a tram ride to Jervis the City Centre of Dublin. Again, expensive transport! It was 2.90 euros for 3 - 4 stops? We went to Jervis Shopping Centre which has a mega huge Marks & Spencer, Topshop, Pull & Bear etc etc. Shopping paradise but we are too poor to shop :( I'm saving everything for London! Wooooohoooo!

It's been a week away from home, from Singapore. Living with people you barely know isn't easy! Different personality, different interests and hobbies. I often have meals in silence with my housemates. And being the cheery noisy Jasmine, I'm totz not used to that. I often feel extremely depressed, thinking why are they so different? Ahh well, like what R said - they prolly haven't adapt to the new environment yet. I should be patient and give them some time. *chants having patience is a virtue and I must have virtue.................
