Alright, why you should take me to Ireland with you? That's simple, first I am LeeLee! You are guaranteed to have one of the best times of your life. Ok but let's start with the basics. I've already been to some of the places, so I can take you to the better areas of Dublin and Galway. Plus the tour your taking went beyond the one I took so we can explore Ireland together!
I will try anything once so the experience we will have together will be AMAZING! The only thing I will stop you from trying is black and white pudding (the black part is blood sausage(pig)). Or I will at least warn you to what things are so you can make your own choices.
Another factor is I am a history buff so the trip will have some random interesting facts along with the non-stop pub crawl. i.e. Some of the burial mounds in Ireland are older than Stonehenge and even the pyramids or that Dublin was a slave port founded by the Vikings who used the river Liffey to maintain their reign of terror throughout most of Europe.
So as I've told you before I have not managed to be drunk since the age of two. So I think its high time to finally break this sober streak of mine and finally reach the ultimate level of partying! Will you help me with the ultimate right of passage (in a college students life) in one the best drinking countries in all of Europe?
Then there is the sporting event, a point in the tour I guarantee to be as loud as the Irishman next to me rooting for the home region. Hopefully it will be a rugby match and then I can explain the basics of the best contact sport in all of sports history! Football I am a little lost in but oh well.
But all in all I love Ireland and all its beauty. Going back is a goal of mine and what better way to achieve this goal and to experience the greatness of my heritage than with a friend?
BTW: if you don't pick me, make sure you talk with me before you go so I can give you some highlights you have to do while you are there before you leave.

I am such a history nerd! I love the random Irish trivia that you included in your essay, LeeAnn; and that's just the kinds of things I like learning about new places.
Thanks for your submission, and good luck!
