Unadventurous

I still feel like I'm being too much of a wimp. I'm pretty disappointed in myself considering how much I've been looking forward to this trip. Here I am in my room again, been here for two hours and the sun is just starting to set. I'm afraid to get lost anywhere and have to ask directions and then not be able to understand someone's accent. People get irritated when you make them repeat themselves too many times. I don't really know any of my classmates that well, even though I've had classes with most of the undergrads before. Of course I would say that they don't like me, but I can't say that because they don't know me. Tomorrow is our first "official" day of planned activities. Today was a "free day" but we came up with something to do as a group. I set my phone alarm for 8:30 to make sure I got breakfast. I had a roll, a croissant, cheese and butter with those, some grapes, a banana, some hot chocolate, (which was kind of weird, coming from a machine with various buttons for "cappucino", "cafe au le," "choco" etc.), some tea, a tiny bit of orange juice, and about three glasses of water (they were really small water glasses). We walked to Dvblinia, which is an exhibit next to Christ Church Cathedral on the vikings. It was fairly interesting. It was a long walk to get there. I ate another croissant I had tucked away in my backpack with a piece of cheese while we waited for people outside. I wasn't very hungry when, about a half an hour later, we all walked to go have lunch. Half the group split and went somewhere else. The half I stayed with was the calm group; the professor, my roommates and the grad students, although one of my roommates went out really late with some of the rest of them last night to a club at Temple Bar or something and didn't get back until like 2:30 am, which was annoying. Anyway, I skipped lunch, but then right after lunch, we went to "The Queen of Tarts" for dessert. I had a piece of Bailey's chocolate chip cheesecake (mmm), which I wouldn't have had the money for if I'd eaten lunch. Haven't eaten anything since then, but I figure I'll just go to sleep when it gets dark and eat another big breakfast. Guess that's it for now.
