Nautical nonsense..

With this beautiful sunny weather, and with the exams all done and over with, we've had plenty of time to do whatever pops into our heads. After being a hermit for almost a month and a half, barely seeing the light of the day, I've finally had the chance to get my Vitamin D from the lovely sun rays.
Most recent activities include trips to the park, long walks to town and around town, a delish alfresco, home made music videos (don't ask....), nights out, sushi, junk food, and Wagamama. Surprisingly, I've been very good resisting shopping.. I'm saving it til London. MUAHAHA.

Last week, Fu and I went on a road trip to Cobh. I'm shit with directions and locations, so I'd say your best bet is to google the place if you're not from Ireland. It's on the coast of east Cork, and it was where Titanic last stopped before it sank. Yes...the real Titanic (Oh Leonardo, why you so purdy?). It was such a nice day.. so sunny, lots and lots of people were out, plenty of doggies and puppies, cute little stalls selling crepes and hot coco, live music playing, etc etc.

A phenomenon we've been seeing lately..
Have you noticed that girl friends travelling in groups all dress similarly? (In general).

It's a bit bizzare.. Do they decide what to wear together before they go out? Is it coincidental?

Unfortunately, even though I can go on bitching about this phenomenon. On that day when we went to Cobh.. Oh but surprise surprise, Fu and I were wearing the same colour scheme. Bleurgh. Ah well..

Here are some photos from our sea trip..

The title of this post was inspired by Spongebob Squarepants' theme song. And speaking of Sponegbob, who lives in a pineapple under the sea.. My friend Cathal, also known as Piney, has created his own blog today called Pineapple Xpressed! Go on...give it a click..

Wow. Those colors are amazing. Looks like a fun trip. And yes, I do notice that girlfriends traveling in packs dress similarly. Who knows why that is. Yet it is. Look for my Vegas pic trips where you'll see a band of chicks wearing similar tacky Vegas inspired gear. :D
