Let's start again, shall we?

It's a brand new day. A new year. I am no longer a chemical engineering student. I am... A graduate. Bound for greatness. For glory. For student debt.

The powers that be (mom and dad) have seen fit to bequeath upon me for graduation a trip. To Ireland. As I type this I'm actually sitting in a plane seat, having just finished a most quality meal of uhm... "Chicken" and vegetables. And "gourmet" Swiss cheese and crackers. 

At least the caramel brownie was palatable after the complimentary glass of wine. 

Unlike my plane to England last year, there are no individual TVs on the backs of the seats in front of us. So we're stuck watching the illustrious "Into the Woods." Yippee?

The next two weeks consist of Ireland. Mom and dad will be hauling me around to various places around the country. After those two weeks, they're heading back to the states and leaving me to my devices for two more weeks. At this point, I'm heading over to the UK to do a tour there. I'll be hitting Cornwall, Wales, Scotland, and, of course, England. Oxford will be making a return appearance, so you may get to see some of the sites you loved so much last time.

... They just turned the engines up louder. Jerks. 

Once we landed, we hopped off the plane and got the car. Mom has taken up the job as the driver. It's been very stressful for everyone. Sweet ride though.
