It was an honor to be taking classes in the same English department that was home to Oscar Wilde, Bram Stoker, and more recently, Sally Rooney of\u00a0<i>Normal People<\/i>\u00a0fame (the Hulu adaptation was filmed at Trinity while I was there!).\u00a0I made friends for life, both Irish and international. I joined numerous\u00a0clubs. I had poems published in\u00a0the school\u2019s literary magazine,\u00a0<i>Icarus<\/i>, which has previously published literary greats such as Seamus Heaney, Eavan Boland, and\u00a0Colm T\u00f3ib\u00edn. I was able to travel throughout Ireland as well as to Germany and England. I saw the cast of\u00a0<i>Derry Girls<\/i>\u00a0at the Dublin airport! I came to feel at home,\u00a0both at Trinity and in Dublin. I won Runner Up at the Dublin Comic Arts Festival, giving me the opportunity to sell my comics to comic fans who were visiting from all over Ireland and Europe. I was selected to sell my comics at Trinity\u2019s first-ever holiday market, an event that over 2,000 people attended. It was an experience I will cherish forever and I cannot wait until I can return to Dublin again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n  <\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My time at\u00a0Trinity College Dublin\u00a0was unforgettable I came to feel at home,\u00a0both at Trinity and in Dublin.
