Day 8 - March 21st 2024

Today, I woke up a bit later than my usual routine, around 8:30 a.m. After leisurely getting ready, I headed out the door to catch my bus at 9:20.

Arriving at work, I settled in and continued with my tasks at a relaxed pace. Surprisingly, I finished my work earlier than expected, so I was granted permission to leave early. Taking advantage of the extra time, I decided to stop by a nearby store to purchase flowers for someone who has been incredibly helpful during my time here in Dublin.

Once I arrived home, I took some time to unwind before heading out again to explore the Swords shopping center. It was an expansive complex, and I found myself absorbed in browsing through the various shops. Time seemed to slip away, and before I knew it, hunger struck. We ended up at a restaurant called Rooster Peri Peri, where we indulged in some burgers. I must say, it was one of the best burgers I've ever tasted. Perhaps our excitement from the day's events heightened our enjoyment, but the flavors were truly exceptional.

After satisfying our hunger, we ventured into a nearby store where I tried Prime for the first time. Despite the hype surrounding it, I found it to be rather underwhelming in terms of taste. Nonetheless, it was an experience worth trying. As the night drew to a close, we made our way back home, where we relaxed and reflected on the day's adventures. Overall, it was a fulfilling day filled with unexpected delights and pleasant surprises, reminding me to cherish the simple joys in life, especially during Ramadan.
