That was a really tiring yet really cool weekend. I’m not going to write everything about it cause nobody will read it, but here’s a summary.

Headlines: loads of new mates, first game at croker, met former Miss Ireland Aoife Cogan

Also I had limited physical contact with a czech girl on friday night. This all “stay-away-from-computers-during-the-weekend” technique has proven to be quite effective so far, socially I mean, cause it doesn’t help getting things done in FreeBSD.

I’ve started playing football in Bushy Park with BT again. Weather was lovely (but rain is already back). I don’t think there’s anything better than a hot shower after physical exercise. Actually, sauna or hammam would be better.

When I came to Ireland, I had two ideas in mind: start playing golf and sign up for a fitness club. While I’ve played golf (in pitch and putt) on a regular basis, I still haven’t signed up in a gym club. My flatmate joined Westwood a couple days ago so that gives me a good reason to do the same. The thing is, it’s 70 quid per month. Do the math, it’s around 850 quid a year (and you have to pay an extra 150 quid joining fee). There’s also Total fitness not too far from my place, which is much cheaper (somebody told me it was around 50-75 quid to join, then 55 quid per month). Still have to think about it, guess I could pay both a visit.
