Today was the second grad student seminar field trip. A much better field trip than the first! We hung around beaches most of the day and played while doing a little bit of geology. It was also wonderful weather - warm and sunny - and better because we all knew that we'd be sleeping in our own beds tonight. A big plus!
The bar - So it was Lisa's birthday today and to celebrate everyone went out to Poets and Patriots, a so-called Irish pub. Not sure what was supposed to make this place Irish, but can't really be that picky. Anywho, it was pretty fun. Chatted with people, was social, and played darts (!). It was a good time for everyone. I have been acting pretty antisocial... or I guess... like a homebody. Not really going out and doing things like this. Everyone seemed pretty glad I was there. It was nice. I mean, of course there were awkward moments where I felt like I was on the periphery of all the conversations going on, but most of the time I was talking with people and joining in and all that good stuff. yay for me. Think I'll start being more social.
Did get some strange looks though when I went up to the bar and ordered a Pepsi... oh well, the alchies can think whatever they want. hahaha.
Anywho, am exhausted and going to bed. Yay for a Saturday well spent (and by that I mean a Saturday in which no homework was done...)
