First try...let's see how it goes!

So, just as everybody else I need to start my blog now. As I know myself pretty well I thought I'd better get this whole blog-thing started right now because once the beginning is made it's easier to continue.
Actually writing a blog, especially in a foreign language, should be something enjoyable for me. I love writing freely, even though it's often hard to find something to write about. That it has to be in english is no problem for me either, because using my language skills is something i really enjoy.
As I do not really know what exactly to write about I may as well introduce myself:
Hi guys, I'm Birgit. :)
I'm turning 20 on the 13th of November (less than a month-interesting...) and I originally come from a tiny village near Salzburg (Faistenau, if someone knows it by any chance). I have four siblings, all older than me, and two are currently studying in Graz as well-which is pretty cool for me! ;) I graduadeted last year, but I decided that I didn't want to start studying immediately after school so I went abroad. From September to Christmas I was in Nyköping, Sweden, working as an AuPair. It was nice up there but I was bored as hell! The whole AuPair thing did not suit me very well and this family actually would not have needed an AuPair, I had barely any work to do. So when I came home I worked in my summerjob for 1,5 months to earn some money, which I immediately got rid of again when I was in Ireland. In spring I spent 3 months in Derry, Northern Ireland, working at riding stables. This was, without doubt, the best thing I ever did in my entire life. I had the best time there, learning a lot about horses, Ireland and my new favourite people, the Irish. I was overwhelmed by how lovely they are, always friendly, helping you wherever they can...simply really nice and friendly people.I benefited so much from these three months, it's unbelievable. I would love to go there again, but before I can do that I need to at least start doing something with my life. This is why this autumn I finally had to start my studies-which is not bad, but still I feel a terrible longing for my life back in Ireland...I really miss it there.
So...I guess that's it for now, I'm tired, my brain is empty!
Any comments or questions? If anybody bothers I would love to read anything about how I'm doing! ;)
Have a nice evening and see you guys on thursday! :)
