    Hey guys, in san diego at the mo, we've got an apartment in clairemont (where all the irish seem to be this summer!) but can't move in till the 21st. There's three of us at the mo but we could really use more people to keep the rent down. Anyone having trouble finding a place and willing to share with three lovely ladies let me know. You can email me at catriona.m.cox@nuim.ie or call me on my 'cell' at 619-993-5467.

    Hey, I was just wondering....do you have to pay USIT/ GO4LESS or one of those places to get a J1 visa.....or can you organise it and your flights yourself??
    Someone told me you have to have a job already set up that will confirm it with the American embassey in Dublin to apply for a J1 visa on yor own???

    I'm 22 in DCU and my friend Meabh is 21 in NCI, were going over to San Diego but finding it difficult to get one room to share?? Anyone fancy sharing a house maybe?
