SUN < 3

I thought i should honour the SUN with a post because it has been AMAZING for past week :)
Since last weekend the sun has been shinning and it has been Hot! Its brilliant! :D
I personally think it puts everyone in a great mood and we're eating lunch outside :) Its gorgeous.
I've been going out most days making the most of it. Everyone should .. news around says its suppose to be raining on Friday.. am dreading it!

Its sooooooooo unfair that it rains just when we get off for TWO WEEKS OFF FOR EASTER!! :D

That!... i cannot wait for!

Shake It Out! :D

Hey Everyone! :D

Tonight class Banba and Eriu are performing Shake It Out by Florence and The Machine at the Annual Music Night all organised by the Music Department. I cant wait i hope the hard work pays off! We have been practising for a good while now and were getting there :) Its also organised for anyone who wants to sing and perform in a group it also gives third years a chance to practise for their Junior Cert Practicals!

The dress code is black...

Not excited but we can work around it :)
We're on in the second half of the night which means we get to chill for a while backstage while the performances go on :D

Hope its a great night and success full too *fingers crossed*

THE HUNGER GAMES! :D

Aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh :D So recently i've been reading The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins its actually sooo amazing :)
 
It is written in first person and introduces sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen, who lives in a post-apocalyptic world in the country of Panem where the countries of North America once existed. The Capitol, a highly advanced metropolis, holds absolute power over the rest of the nation. The Hunger Games are an annual event in which one boy and one girl aged 12 to 18 from each of the 12 districts surrounding the Capitol are selected by lottery to compete in a televised battle in which only one person can survive.

Thats basically the jist of the Hunger Games!!

GOT MY TICKET TO SEE IT ON TONIGHT! :D Yeeeeesssssssssssssss :)

Am on the second book right now called  Catching Fire :)

The first book is called The Hunger Games!
The second book is called Catching Fire!
Th third book is called Mockingjay!

St. Patricks Day Banter :D

On friday we got to dress up for Paddy's Day Weekend :) We got to dress up as what ever we wanted as long as it was irish! I came in, in my irish dancing dress as an irish dancer! We had a great day and everyones brings in €2, and all the money collected goes to charities of our choice, its a great cause :D

At lunch time everyone gathered in the hall for dancing and some great music! The bant was had!! :D Congrats to all the prefects for their wonderful work in organising the day.

For the weekend, i went out to all my friends, i was going to into town but last year wasnt the best so i didnt want to relive those days :(

It was definitely very eventful day anyway :D

Quit yo' Jibby Jabbing you ain't hurt.. If I catch you acting like a crazy fool again ima send you to BRAVEFORCE! :D

Oowwww.. that is the response after yesterdays incredible day out at BRAVEFORCE Puddenhill in Co.Meath! Oh my god!! It was actually one of the best days of TY! Soooooooooo amazing :D

Well we before we actually hit the road we have a talk on Internet Safety.. it was scary just to think of all the things that can happen to you on the Internet if you are not safe! I went home and went through all my friends list and deleted everyone who i didn't know and wasn't sure who they were! And went through privacy settings and put a sticker on my webcam.. its a scary place out there! :o :( It was definitely an eye opener to whats out there!! 

But soon after that we got changed and got ready for the adventure that awaited for us! :D And then 70 TY Heads hit the road for an amazing day :)

Once we got there we were all syked for the mud, water, and obstacles! Though the weather was unbelievable cold! Like teeth were shattering! :o We also found out that two other schools were going to be joining us in the race.. a 3.5 km race ..which most the girls did not take so lightly!

We all warmed up and did some exercises! And then the wild crazy adventure began :D
We ran through obstacles and ran through very very cold water.. they weren't exaggerating when they said some people experience shock when they enter the water!

It was actually such an amazing day!! Loved every second of it and i would do it again :) Definitely one of the most brilliant day in TY :D

Jembe Session!

On Monday TY class Banba got to experience the world of African Drumming! :)
It was good fun with the whole class! Dave (our instructor) told usthat if we forget everything about drumming the one thing he doesnt want us to forget is thats drums Jembe and not Bongo's!! We learned lots of new skills about how to play the drums and not just slap your hand on it making random ... terrible sounds.
We also got to try African Dancing :) That was sooo cool :D Something different :) The sounds we made were so much fun and really awesome! Everyone got to try different Jembe's and shakers and maracas and the whole lot! It was such an interesting day all togther we even ended the day with a litle competition - we had to see how fast we could get the Jembe's into the special bags and into Dave's van :)
...Unfortunetly it took us a whole 4 minutes! :( It was a great day! Definitely a day TY's will always remember :D

Slán :) xo

Wonderful World of Work! :)

So i spent a whole week in Scoil Naomh Bríd! It was so much fun :) I was with the two 2nd classes which was great! I also helped with a 1st class group too :) I think one of the reasons why i loved it so much was because it was my old primary school and everyone was sooo welcoming and lovely and i also knew everyone which brilliant! :) It was SO nice to go back and see my old teachers, they were so nice to me! So glad i went!
I did lots of different things like i laminated, i went on a nature walk with junior infants (they're just fab little kids) i made loads of posters for the classes, i helped out in PE classes and Irish dancing during the week, i also read "The Witches Apprentice" to both of the 2nd classes , they loved it!

The classes that i was with were great! They were small so they were very nice and funny with the things they said!
I would definitely recommend it! Only if you like children and working with children and you have to be patient. I had a great week and am so happy i went there! I definitely learned a lot about myself, i am very good with children and i would love to work with them! I learned that my patience is pretty good but its shocking to see how much you need throughout one day(depending on the children you work with!)
It brought back a lot of memories which made me think back in the days where i was school, and the little things we use to say! 

It was a superb week :) I really enjoyed it the work was really good to :D 

Shout out to monique :) It her birthday today:D HAPPY BIRTHDAY MONIQUE :D Can't wait for the party ;) x
