HAPPY THANKSGIVING!

Tomorrow afternoon I will be leaving to spend a nice 5 days and 4 nights in my home country-- IRELAND! We will be spending our time in Dublin with one day trip planned to Galway and the Cliffs of Moher. I will be staying with five other girls from the fashion program- Jill, Caitlin, Alyssa, Devin and Danica. There will also be about four other fashion students staying in the same hostel as us! And yes, I really said hostel... we are slightly "slumming it" this trip in order to take one more trip to the outlets. I for one would rather be at the Marriot, but I guess it all is part of the experience! haha. We will be returning back to Florence very late Sunday night. I still have a quite a bit of my projects to complete that are due a week from today. I will be taking some of my work with me to Ireland and will be saving the other part for Monday once we are back.

I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving while I'm gone! I must say, this week has been one of the hardest weeks to be away from home! I sadly missed the Ohio State vs. Michigan game over the weekend on Saturday, Lauren (my best friend in the whole wide world) had her twenty first birthday today, Wednesday all of my best girlfriends will be going out to the glamorous Sandusky bars together (Ken's Bar being the highlight of the night!) and Thursday I will be missing Thanksgiving! I really feel like I haven't missed too much while I've been here, although somehow all of the best things got rolled up into the same week together! I guess its fair though... I mean you all have been jealous of me for like fifteen weeks, so if I only have to be jealous for one than I guess I'm rather fortunate! :)

Stay tuned for some great pictures from the Land of the Irish early next week! I probably will only have a couple more posts after that and I will be back in the USA! Hugs and Kisses to everyone! ... And stay warm!! :)

--HAPPY 21st BIRTHDAY LAUREN! I can't wait to see you when I'm home!-

Love you and miss you all!

Ciao for Now,

Carrie :)
