Bottoms Up
Last night, my classmates, professor, and I marked the end of our International Newsgathering class by going to the Irish Lion (previous AIESEC post GMM hang out hot spot). I have to be honest and say that I have never enjoyed the company of classmates so much before last night.
Not only are some very verbose and opinionated people, they are very nice people. While drinking and eating with our professor last night, we talked about everything from traveling, to religion, to venting our frustration at our less then favorite classmates. As well, we had our firsts in trying oysters and Blarney Puffballs (an Irish Lion must have).
It is a shame though that I have not, until quite recently, interacted more with some of my classmates. But better late then never, better to have at least one night of great conversations and laughs then to none.
Seeing everyone, including my professor, in a relaxed, social environment outside of class has been a nice change. I feel so graduate student like! All thanks to Chris for advocating drinking after class...

I love the Irish Lion; so many memories there. You have to try to the 1 meter beer though; then we can see how much of a lightweight you really are. ;)
