I'm just going to come right out and say it: joining the Ultimate Frisbee team has been the absolute best decision I have made while in Ireland. I wouldn't trade the experience for anything in the world. The people I have met on the team are some of the greatest people I have encountered. I have made lifelong friends with them. Since I'm choosing to write letters to most, if not all, of the members of the team, I'm forcing myself to think of the day when I have to finally say goodbye to them all and leave our next meeting up to fate. As one might imagine, this is a depressing experience but it has to be done and I'm trying to make the best of it. They have become my family over here; teaching me about Ireland and the culture every day and looking out for my SMC friends and I. I can not thank them enough and find it quite difficult to put into words exactly how much they all mean to me. Hopefully this post (and the letters) can give them all some insight. So to the frisbee team, if you're reading this, thank you all for everything! Can we make this last month and 3 days insanely mind blowing? That would be just GRAND.
