I’m Irish, it’s not that obvious from my last
name as with the Heeley’s or whatever they were originally called before they jumped
across to England in those times when most things Gaelic were out-lord by the
English, they moved and changed their name in order for the English not to know
where they came from. It was just a shame that they chose Yorkshire to settle
as, well, I guess you really need to know that northern accent to get why I say
that.
My mother’s is where I truly tie my Irish
genes too, as she’s from Belfast, they immigrated over to Australia when she
was 8. I am in fact second generation—duel passport—Irish. I’m not sure the
background of my grandmothers family, I think they were from the south that
moved to the north, but it’s said that my grandfather’s line can be traced back
to the Celtic’s which is the reason I got my pixie ear.
Anyway, walla, I’m Irish. I’m blue eyed,
blond hair, and see-through white skin—and yes I say that other just being
white, my veins are small and deep and I can see every fucking one of them. I
ain’t white, I’m see-through.
Anyway, I wear the green I have the Claddagh
ring (ok, I got it when I was little, so it doesn’t fit anymore), pendent and
my mother even has the brooch.
I love my family, the support they give me,
everyone, the same I would give them. It’s what it’s like to live in an Irish
family. We are for life and we tend to keep them all there.

I haven't been to Ireland, but it's #1 on my list of places to visit. Traditional Irish music and dancing are probably my favourite things about it.

DeleteI lived there for about 6 months, in Kenmare. What I loved...the bougainvillea (I think that's what it was) that was the size of my house. Absolutly beautiful! And the lamb, I love lamb!

I've never been to Ireland but would love to go one day. My favorite thing I know of right now though would be the accent soooo sexy!
