(Sigmund) Freud Day?

The Irish say Friday like "Froyday" so the American interns make fun of Megan, Tommy, and Paul by saying that every Friday must be a celebration of Freud... Freuday, get it? Haha
It snowed this morning during praise and worship time! It was amazing! It never snows in Ireland... maybe like twice a year. Then it snowed again this afternoon. I guess that means it's done for the year.
I work all shifts today because I have tomorrow off, so I worked the floor all through the morning and the lunch rush. On Fridays we have a draw in which the kids can enter their names and get it drawn for free food items... it's a pretty big deal. We have to watch out for double entries so today while Paul and I were reading off the names, Paul found two from the same kid and called him out as a winner, then when he came up triumphantly, Paul announces that he cheated and he has to leave! Ha! That'll teach them!
I had this one little runt of a kid named Cillian try to mess with me today. I knew he was gonna be trouble from the get-go when I saw him come in pushing and shoving his friends. When I brought him his food, he goes, "What's this!? You call this a large curry chip?" And I say, "Oh yeah, it's an enormous portion! I bet you can't eat it all in three minutes!"
Ten minutes later her calls me over to tell me that he just finished them in 30 seconds. Riiight. Then he tried to get someone else's food I was carrying out when his friends told on him. Then when it was time to put names in for the draw he told me he had dropped his slip and needed another but I told him that he had tried to trick me once and I didn't trust him, so he laughs and runs off. What a joker.

Tonight, we went back over to the interns' house for what the call "cell group" which is kinda like a small group or a house church of people who all go to Discovery Church. It was fun meeting all the other people and getting to know more Irish guys and even the Malaysian medical students in the group. We had some worship time and some really good prayer time and Paul gave his testimony which was really powerful. Afterwards we hung out and got sugared up and watch Paul do ridiculous things while we swapped ISP stories with Cat and told jokes about pranks and such. A late night, but I have tomorrow off, so hooray! :-)
