A Good News/Bad News Sort of Day

The good news: My presentation went fine.  The bad news: I worked myself into some tummy problems getting nervous beforehand.

The good news: I signed up for and received my membership card for trampoline club. The bad news: My name on the card is "Holly Overguaard."

The good news: I signed up for Irish club for two euro and got an awesome t-shirt (it says "Bun os cionn," which means upside down and has a picture of a bakery bun upside down). The bad news: I left my student ID card at the table.

The good news: I went to the International Student Buddy Program and met a lot of new people who seem really nice. The bad news: I couldn't eat any of the food because my stomach was still upset.

To end of good news though, I'm pretty sure I'll be able to find my ID card (which I need to get my student visa); my tummy will be better by the end of the evening (chamomile tea, lots of it!); and I have a quirky souvenir that shows that whether I'm in America or Ireland, no one knows how to spell Overgaard.
