Carlingford and work experience:))

Last week was the exciting week of carlingford wooo we started off early on monday morning where we got the bus at esso, it took about two hours to get to carlingford which i didnt know was actually a little village which was really cute aww
as soon as we got there we got sorted into our rooms, my room was great room 64 forevs xx We then got straight into the activities. first up we went rafting and even though i hated the wetsuits and the cold water it was really fun, after we got across the water we went into this cave thing where it was dark and a man poured freezing water on us which i didnt really like ehh
after that we had lunch and then did afternoon activities which were fun, we had some time to ourselves that evening and we got chinese mmm
the next morning we were up early to start our second day of activities and water sports was up first, the wetsuits were even more smelly than the last day ew but the canoeing was fun overall:)) we then went up into the mountains with teddy to do laser tag which was the best activity by far! 
by that time we were all exhausted and looking forward to going home, me and meadhbh had a lovely bus journery home where we slept for most of it shoutout to meadhbh she gave me fanta xx

Results Week!

This week we got our junior cert results on Wednesday! Overall it was a nerve-wrecking but exciting and fun week. The wait from monday until Wednesday morning felt like forever but before we knew it we were standing in our old class groups in the hall waiting for them envelopes. I was so nervous and when i recieved the envelope and I dint open it for a few minutes, it was so weird to think that the results of all my work done from first year to third year was in this one envelope.

Once I opened the envelope i was immediatley very pleased with my results, as were everyone else. That night we all went to the Wright Venue in Swords and had one of the best nights!

The day after we were all very tired and I had my first home-ec cooking class where i made chocolate chip cookies. i had never been in the home-ec kitchens before so it was al a new experience for me. The cookies turned out very well for beginnners!
Next monday we are all headed to Carlingford adventure centre, everyone is so excited and ready for the two days away in carlingford!

Overall results week was a week i wont be forgetting anytime soon.

see you next week,

First Week Back!

The first week of Ty has flown by,we started last 
Thursday when we were sorted into our class groups named after Disney Princesses! Ariel, Belle and Aurora. 
This Wednesday we had a fun day of workshops, etiquette where we learnt basic skills on how to dress for interviews and tips on how to walk in heels! First aid where we learnt CPR, how to bandage and how to put someone into the recovery position. Our third workshop was called a positive party where we had loads of fun learning about how to stay happy and have a positive outlook on life.
At the moment we are all nervous but at the same time excited to get our results next Wednesday!
Im nervous to see my results but excited for the night afterwards!
