Walking on the cobble stone, I gazed at the street in front of me. As I walk about, I gloriously tripped causing me to almost fall. When I tripped, in those split microsecond, I reflected what has happened today.

When it was noon time today, we were sent off on a mission in groups of four or five. We were told to interview people on the streets of Dublin. With a sense of missionary in mind, my group sets off on our glorious mission. As Rory, a group member of mine, wishes that he were to see the man with the bowtie from Sweny’s again, he appears before our eyes, walking on the other side of the street. It was magical. As we gasp in surprise, we turned around and noticed that Rory has begun his chase to catch up with the man. Slightly creepily following him, we saw him walking into a building and we decided that man may not be the man with a bowtie we are looking for. As we sigh in disappointment, we heard a familiar voice coming from the back, and suddenly sees the man with a bow tie standing before us. That was one of the most magical and theatrical moment that I’ve encountered for a long time.

After completing our mission and feeling satisfied about what we have learned within the span of a few hours, we walked back to Costa Coffee to meet up with the others in our project. In the afternoon we went and enjoyed some shopping time at The Arcade. Many of the boys in our project rushed excitedly towards the flannel shop, browsing through them one by one as the girls stopped by too, but looking at the sweaters and jackets in the shop. After fulfilling our pleasures in shopping, we met up with the Irish students once again in Rua Red, Tallaght. During the time, we first worked with the Irish students by sharing our stories and turning them into short scenes. After doing so, we played a game in which music will be played in the background while one of us will stand in the center and speak out words that we think that flows with the song. Towards the end of the night, we played with the Irish students a game of freeze in which many enjoyed playing. As we went back to our hotel, we enjoyed some delicious fish and chips, leaving us full and satisfied for the day.

As I land with another feet, holding my weight back up to balance, I look around, hoping that no one had just seen me half tripping, and noticed Cesca looking at me from the back, and smiling.
