is a fucking awesome city. I drank so much guinness... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, I'd like to go to Dublin |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
Oh my God???????? Great! |

You know, you can drink guiness anywhere now. |
||||||||
|
|

Do they have it on Pigeon Street? |
||||||||
|

no wonder zeus likes it...he feels like home there...being from boston and all... |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
seriously though... it tastes better in dublin. they say it doesnt travel well, and I agree. Its much more smooth and creamier there. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Yup, Guinness outside Ireland is not worth talking about. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
oh sure |
||||||||
|
|

zeus - where did you go? what did you like? i've grown to find the city very boring... maybe it'll change when i move up to live there for college next year.. but right now i can't wait to go interrailing across europe and see other lands instead of boring old ireland |

I thought it was great. The people are very friendly... very casual. Temple Bar is cool, and Grafton street... just basically the whole vibes there. oh, and irish chicks are hot. alot hotter then I expected. I also went to the national concert hall, and listened to the symphony orchestra play... very nice the green was cool. nice and relaxing... its cool that its there in the middle of the city. so you are irish? live there all your life? |
||||||||
|

|

yep i am. I know what you mean with the friendliness we are renowned for it but since our economic boom there's been a lot of racism and ignorance brewing which is a pity.. the only down-side to irish chicks is that not many of them are tanned :) and when they are it's that terrible fake tan stuff. awful. :) the NCH is a great place i love the look of it - what did you see being performed? i see you have a picture of trinity too, hopefully i'll be studying there next year if my exams (which i'm in the middle of right now) go well. Would you ever consider living here? I assume being from boston you are of irish descent? |

it was a one hour tuesday afternoon radio broadcast... played some bizet, saint-saenz, and berlioz. there was a young solo cellist who was amazing. trinity is a very nice campus! (5 min walk from temple bar ;) yeah, I could totally live there.... but Im not from boston. I just go there for college. Although I do have some irish in me... not enough to call myself irish though... (im a mutt) |
||||||||

ah very nice! trinity campus is great but unfortunatly the college has a reputation comparable to that of harvard so the majority of the students and faculty there have massive superiority complexes and turn their noses up at people from other colleges. as for living in dublin, yes, nice city and all but how much of the nightlife did you experience/witness? it can get very very ugly at night in the better parts of town. you don't even think about venturing into the worse parts at night.. there's been a huge surge in unprovoked attacks which is shitty and it's one reason i'm not sure whether i'll live here when i grow up or emigrate to germany or canada. perhaps the phonomenon of unprovoked attacks isn't isolated to ireland - and anyways it is significantly nicer to live in a country where not even the cops have guns.... |

One downside is that Dublin is insanely expensive compared to the rest of the country though, which is merely crazily expensive. I think we overtook Norway and Sweden as the most expensive place in Europe lately :/ |

Galway = much nicer guiness, much cheaper. |

The nicest Guinness is to be found in country pubs that are frequented by two old men and half a dog, miles from anywhere. FACT. |
||||||||

That, my friend, is fabulously true. Rural, deserted ireland... one pub per 50 miles, amazing scenery. |
