"Wait, what? I'm done?"

Today at half-five (that's how the Irish say 5:30), I completed my internship with the Marketing Network. Lauren, Jack and I went from floor to floor saying our goodbyes to the people we've spent many hours working with over the last seven weeks. It was a bittersweet ending to an awesome work experience, one that I'll never forget and will always look back on when I remember the past 3 1/2 months that I've been in Ireland.

We managed to have some fun during our lunch hour today, when we discovered a food market down the street from our office. Several of our co-workers have been talking about it for weeks, and today we finally got a chance to experience the incredibly delicious food on what I'd say has to have been the best day of sunshine we've seen in a long time.

While everyone scrambles to complete their portfolio assignment tonight (it's due tomorrow) and as we all attempt to cram every last piece of clothing and all of the extra souvenirs into our suitcases over the next two days, I can't help think it can't be time for us all to leave just yet. Where have the last 15 weeks gone?

Several of us are headed into the city centre for a traditional Irish Céilí tonight. We'll see just how much the last four weeks of dance class have taught us!
