What's ironic is that it seems that I'm always sucked into this holiday, even though I'm not Christian (for those who do not know what I'm talking about, St. Patrick - Saint Patrick. Google it) It seems to be just a way for stores to create new ads, and try to sell green. Then everyone actually believes it, and tries to pinch you, or much, much worse...
I started celebrating St. Patrick's Day three years ago for the first time and allthough I still have no clue whatsoever of what the reason and meaning of this celebration is, I really do enjoy my round in the Irish pubs we have in town and drinking a nice pint of Guiness in each one of them! So that makes a total of 5 pints every year! =)

Considering the day itself, Saint Patrick's Day, is the day we celebrate a Christian saint, that might be... rather wrong. It might be a holiday that has been put on top of a Pagan holiday, but the reason we are all drinking ourselves into a stupor would be due to this Catholic saint that made the Irish Christian back in the days.
