Every Tuesday evening, I've been attending Global Issues Seminars, hosted by one of the societies I joined in September. They were extremely informative and interesting, especially given the wide variety of people that joined. Last night was our last session and we had a mini graduation ceremony. The host (a representative from SUAS who attended every session) called each of our names and gave us a certificate which was endorsed by Irish Aid. We posed for traditional graduation photos, each of us shaking hands with the guy. It was kind of a spontaneous, funny way to end the seminar. We all went for a drink in the college bar afterward and we had a good time. I enjoyed the conversation over a pint of Bulmers, it was just the way going out should be, to me. It was just relaxing.
Molly and I had not eaten dinner so on the way back to Niland, we stopped in La Salsa, a Mexican food place. We had not sampled this cuisine before and I have to say it was a little disappointing. Everything was overly sweet. I had nachos with all the toppings. The guacomole was good, everything else was mediocre. They use regular tomato sauce for salsa which is very strange to me. I'm glad we gave it a chance though.

Hi Kristin,
It's hard to believe that things are starting to wrap up over there isn't it? You've been there almost 2 1/2 months~hard to believe. By the way, I like the new photo you are using for your profile. Love, Mom
