Ever wondered about a typical day in Ireland? How about the people themselves? Jacksepticeye? The food? If you ever want to travel to Ireland you'll need these things: a jacket, pint of black shtuff, careful tongue and of course knowledge of the iri...
If there's one thing that The Irish are known for, it's that we're used to cold (put on a jacket, you'll be grand). Well, we got used to the rain, hail, sleet and now out of nowhere, snow. How did the snow come into Ireland? Was their passports checked? Who allowed them in. Anyway, enough complaining, today's story is about how we deal with it
1) Everyone will be talking about it (Mary told John that it'll be snowing all weekend long.)
2) Wondering if you've enough food (bread and milk. It was quite funny actually because all the shop were selling them by the second)
3) Its the end of the world (not literally, but people act like it is. Your mam probably popped up to sweet old Nora up the road at some point during the snow)
4) Snow related posts (Fact: I went on my Snapchat on Wednesday and all I saw was 0°C with a hill of snow. Which results in people out in the snow with Frosty the Snowman in the background)
5) Mammy will be on high Alert for news ("I'll pop into Lidl tonight", "have you phones and everything charged?", "Make sure when you get to their place call me", "Take another jacket, it's bitter cold")
6) We never wear enough layers (your Penneys Uggs and Jumpers won't be enough)
7) wanting to stay in your pyjamas all day (I pretty much lived in my fluffy pyjama hoodie that I got at Penneys for Christmas)
8) Somebody will take the snowballfight too seriously ( Most snowball fights end in tears, or at the very least, some people waking up with a cold the next morning. There’s always one person that takes the banter of a snowball fight just a little bit too seriously and starts planning out tactics like they’re actually on a battlefield. But as long as no one gets hurt, it’s all in good fun! )
9) the novelty wears off pretty quickly for some ( A snow day may seem like the best thing in the world for a child, but for adults it’s a different story. From not being able to make it into the office and falling behind on work, to very quickly running out of food if you have small hands grabbing snacks throughout the day, it’s no picnic.)
10) you mooched off on public WiFi if you didn't have 3G or 4G ( I mooched off on Aldis and Tescos wifi)
11) Bread was being sold on Donedeal (literally, I'm not even joking)
12) Beast from the East (someone made a game out of it. The little dude is trying to get bread)
13) you thought about your life (What is my life? Should I spend less time on social media?)
14) You were a bit "upset" when you heard that school/work was back on (I was super annoyed. Them: schools back on Monday. Me: Fuck off)
What about ye? Were ye snowed in?
