Hoalaaaaa!
  Last week was quite uneventfull but my junk Kouture group got lots of work done on our dress. So far our bodice is nearly finshed we just have to do a small tree design on the back and we are finitoooe! Then I can put it on and and lace it up into a corset with ribbon. We also have to start working on the skirt of the dress during the midterm next week which will be made out of two tutu's sowen together with starched material in each pleat, with a celtic design on it. We also have to start making the shoes, hat and accesories.
  In technology we've been making clocks which isn't that fun because I did it in second year because I did tech for my Junior Cert but hopefully we'll be doing our formula1 projects soon which should be good craic in our groups.
  Im also looking forward to my fifth Wednesday of work experiance tomorrow. Im doing my placement in a boy's primary school near where I live. So far I've been doing mostly office work but I did get to help a junior infants class with their Autumn and Halloween artwork.
  On Friday we have to dress up as Zombies for Halloween so that'll be funny to see everyone.
Thats really all thats happened this week so..... byeeeeeeeee.

Carlingford

Hoalaaaaaaaa
  Last Monday, all the T.Y. students went to Carlingford in Co. Louth. Twas prettty cool. We stayed in the Carlingford Adventure Centre. On the Monday we had to be at esso garage for 7am. In the morning. When i should have still been warm and cosey in bed :/ It took about an hour and a half to get there and we watched Rapunzel on the bus. Whatta movie :) I want a pet chamelleon called Pascal now.
  When we got there we divided into our rooms that we would "sleep" in that night. I was in a room of 12 so you could probably guess how loud we were! Our first activity was kyaking. It was really fun and Daina was my partner. We had to wear wetsuits and life-jackets. We were looking well lads. It was really cold but so worth it. Especially when ewe got to jump in the water and swim! I also held my head under a waterfall for 10 seconds which means that im going to live a WHOLE DAY LONGER!!! YEAAAAHHHH BUDDDY!!!
  We moved on to the high ropes after a yummy lunch of sausage rolls. NUUUUUUUMMM. I ate mine and Aideens :P. We had to climb a 30 foot pole and four of us had to balance on a pizza sized box on the top and lean back to form a flower shape. I nearly wet myself.
  We then got dinner. Which was horrible. I didnt eat it and anyone who knows me knows im not one to turn down food. It was that bad! EUUURRRRRGGGHHHH.
   Then we went on a lovely blindfolded night walk were i succede in whacking my head off every tree in a very big forest. Such Crack. Not.
   After that though we got CHIIIIIIPEEEEERR! Nummm chicken snackbox :) I then changed into my tiger onesie and strutted around the whole center. Howaya Lads. Then we went to our rooms and ate loadssss of sweeeetieeees before finally collapsing on our beds.
   The next morning I had hot chocolate for breakfast and we went
