J'habite รก Drumcondra

After moaning all Summer about how I was going to have to commute from Ashbourne to DCU this year, a couple of weeks ago I decided to move into a house in Drumcondra.

In my defence, the offer was pretty difficult to resist: a room to myself in a lovely house situated halfway between DCU and town with two of my best friends from school for only €310 a month plus bills.

I'm going to have to work a couple of extra shifts at the dog-track or elsewhere in order to pay for it but I think it's worth that in order to be able to escape parental rule and the clutches of that evil, evil entity commonly referred to as 'Bus Eireann'.

I plan on investing in a bicycle in order to get around. Motorists and pedestrians of Dublin city, consider yourselves warned.

My Shirt's Too Sexy For My Me

Mammy: I brought you back a little present from Spain

Please don't be a t-shirt, please don't be a t-shirt...

The Bubble Boy: Oh. A t-shirt. Thanks mam!

BUT...

...despite deserving an award for her outstanding contribution to bad taste in boys' clothes, mammy got it right for once.

Isn't it lovely?

Now I'm just worried that I'm not cool enough to pull it off.
