Student Blogs

    Hello friends and friends, I hope you’ve all been enjoying the summer so far. As everything has a start, everything has also an end… and even if we try so hard to stop the time and to drag moments for ever, there’s something that we can’t stop. There’s something that slips away from…

Hello everyone! My name is Maria, and as the sound of it suggests, I’m from Italy, that lovely and picturesque country that both foreigners and Italians, recognize in the unique shape of a boot. Well, I know I am a bit biased, but I think it’s a wonderful place where to live, however sometimes the…

Hey, my name is Klara! I am 16 years old and from Germany. I live with my parents and my older brother, he is 18 years old, in Hanover. In my spare time I like to play Field hockey and clarinet or just meet my friends. My brother did his year abroad two years ago…

Hello again! Time to talk about what I’ve been up to the last few weeks. So, as I mentioned in the last post we had our midterm in the middle of February. My sister and her boyfriend came to Dublin to visit me and we stayed in an Airbnb in town. The weather was awful,…

Hello dear friend, How are you? Hope you are doing well. I have been feeling a bit strange lately, maybe it’s because I have received the information about my host family, what has made it all seem so real for the first time. Don’t get me wrong, I have know it’s real as soon as I received the acceptation…

  This is a quite complicated month for me. It’s almost all about study and pressure. My leaving cert exams started on the Wednesday, June 5th. The first exam was English paper 1. It went quite well. The paper wasn’t too hard, and I finished it on time. English paper 2 was difficult, however, I’m…

Oh my god. Those are the three words I’d use to describe the past four weeks. St. Patricks Day, a concert, holidays, family visit and realising that it’s only two months now until I must go to Germany again, all of that happened in the last month! Let me start with the biggest event in…
