Today was sadly our last day. Yet, we do not grieve due to all of the wonderful
experiences in which our BCH 'family' has immersed ourselves in. I say family
because we care, we love, and we pursue the highest of expectations together. To
start off the day, the students and the caring faculty joined together in the
"Canteen." Our farewell breakfast was a time of reminiscing and expression of
gratitude towards the cooperative students and faculty. After, we played
basketball versus the Belvedere boys, and we won! This group of BCH boys has
ended the losing streak, so it is up to you all next year to continue the
legacy. Next, we participated in a dance class, in which we learned how to "hoe
down" by immersing ourselves in Celtic dance. We all had a grand time with the
fast-paced music and dance. Our last tour of the trip was at the GPO. We learned
about the uprising of 1916 and the various rebellious efforts of the citizens.
The museum contained artifacts and described the different roles that Irish
citizens took part in (such as Republicans, Suffragettes, etc.). Overall, this
trip was a blast, and I am so grateful to have had the opportunity to travel
abroad through Boston College High School. Thank you.
