I still had to work on my papers and I spent the majority of the day trying to finish them up.
UCD also held its last event - a farewell dinner - at the Merry Ploughboy pub for all the students. It was our chance to say goodbye to our program directors.
Our dinner was accompanied by music from the Merry Ploughboys and a small show of Riverdance. They sang and played old Irish tunes such as "King of the Fairies", "The Fields of Athenry", "Whiskey in the Jar", and "Four Green Fields".
I also bought their CD. I hadn't bothered once to attend a live music show or listen to any traditional Irish music. It is something I regretted, but I'm glad that I at least attended one show.
The night was a lot of fun and music and dancing were a lot of fun. I wasn't looking forward to returning home and working on my papers.
Day 57: We had dreams and songs to sing
