Sentence with no words... 0_o

Mrs. L gave us a challenge, so I thought I'd take the opportunity to show you just how cool I am (*sarcasm*)

History talk and I'm about to get sick...

I'm going to get sick, like seriously. Have my Build a Bank interview in half and hour, like never mind butterflies, someones opened a cage of birds in my stomach, like the simile? oh god... I'm so cheesy. I talk WAAAY too much when I'm nervous, which I suppose may be an alright thing when I have to talk?..
I actually want this so bad! Stop ranting now..
We got a history talk of Mr. Doohan from Argards, and it was actually pretty interesting. I found out a lot of things I never knew about Celbridge before, and I liked the way we saw loads of pictures as well, so we could see exactly how it used to be like back in the day.
 He also said he may bring us for  walk down main street and tell us everything about ti and stuff. I personally think that would be slightly cool, considering we all walk down it like everyday.

I'm actually going to go now, before I lose all my loyal followers due to my excessive ranting, I'll update you if I get the part in the bank, wish me luck because I'm really going to need it!

AHH! Stress

So it's the last week before Mid-term (and not a moment too soon might I add) and the teachers are being every so kind and piling on the work before we get a tiny bit of freedom. Ms O'Connell decided all of a sudden to move back the date that our Geography project is due by six weeks (-.-) So now I'm running about the place like a headless chicken trying to get it all done. Then I have my English Assignment, which is a 2 page minimum essay on the play we saw, THEN my Spanish powerpoint on Chile is due for Friday(?) and then a maths test on all the maths we have done all year, as well as the usually workload.
Bit stressful to say the least. I'm clearly not very stressed over it to the extreme because I managed to fall asleep mid-project work last night and woke up like half an hour later with my face on the keyboard... Whoops.
Dress up on Friday!!! The theme is the Addam's family, and I'm debating whether I'm going to be Pubert(lol) or Wednesday. Decisions decisions.
Also have this Mini-Compant meeting on tonight, which I suppose will be a laugh, and of course very productive... I'm joking I'm joking we actually do have a lot of work to do.

I could actually write more, but I have schtuff to be doing like, so I'm going to go?

English trip and Build a Bank stuff

Sooo, didn't get to blog this morning, because I was at a talk about the Build a Bank challenge. OMG I need to get in. Was going to apply for the craic anyway, but the prizes are amazing aswell, and it's something else to put on my very empty CV..
  We went on our English trip yesterday, first we went to the "National Library" which had no books... then the National musuem to look at the bog bodies which was really interesting, and then the WB Yeats exhibiton which Was probably my favourite one out of the three.
  Then we had our very nutritious lunch in MacDonalds, and then went to see Juno And The Paycock in the Abbey theatre, which was pretty great. My favourite character was Johnnny, because of the amazing acting and everything, obviously...

Mini-company!

Getting really excited about this mini-company thing, I'll admit at the start of the year, it wasn't exactly what I'd of called my FAVOURITE class... But now that we have a solid idea and a group we're all happy with etc. I'm actually really looking forward to getting this thing going (and possibly making a bit of de moolah in the process :D )
  I'm in charge of Finance and Purchasing, which sound pretty boring but isn't actually that bad :)
Trying to slightly more optimistic in this blog post, because even Mrs. L has noticed that I'm too sarcastic... Oops.

Nom nom...

So today is blog action day! Which I admittedly forgot about.. But the topic is "Food", this shouldn't be too difficult for me. Going to answer some of these suggested questions, here I go..
My favourite food, is lasagne. AHH! that, and sweet and sour chicken. :)
Best food memory? ehm, probably this restaurant I was in once, where you sat in a car? and like the dashboard was your table, and it was just very very cool all together.
Worst food memory? That time I got food poisoning.. Oh and the time I tried Vegemite. IGH. * Shudders*
The Strangest thing I have ever eaten, has to be nettle soup, which looked a bit like algae floating in a bowl, but tasted pretty nice. And green Ketchup. Or that one time when I was a kid and decided to try chocolate with my pizza, that was strange but oddly great.
vegetarian, vegan or meat eater: Meat eater. Fo sho. Went through some random stage once, where I decided I would be a vegetarian, but then I realised, there was no way I'd be able to hack that.. Fair dues to anyone who can though.
Growing my own food. hmm. not something I do very often, my brother has a vegetable patch in the back garden, but it take a long time before we get any food out of that, so I suppose this is where I mention how glad I am that I don't need to grow my own food, because I can just buy it, because if I get a bad summer, my food stocks aren't destroyed.
Freeganism: Eating things other have thrown away. Well I'd eat my friends leftover food sometimes, Aisling D is particularly a great food recycler, go you! :L

I don't know if I did this right, like I didn't mention the more important topics that most.. But I suppose the whole point is just to raise the awareness :)

Blog Action Day website

English trip :)

Another Wednesday trip XD which is kind of great, considering I don't hate Wednesdays, but strongly dislike..
Going to go see "Juno and the Paycock" (Said in my best old Dublin accent, which make me sound like I'm from Cork)
and going to othe rother educational schtuff aswell, going to the Yeats exhibition, which isn't much of a suprise, because I vaguely remember Mrs. B really liking his poems, and then we are going to go see the bog bodies in one of the National history Museums :)
But, as extremely exciting as that all is (and no I'm not being sarcastic!*cough* Ellen *cough*) we get to go off on our own in town for lunch, which will be good craic :)
So ye, roll on TY :)
Think we may possibly be having a party in PE, Cross your fingers fodlians!

:D

Clustrmaps?

Got a Clustrmap thing on my blog because Mrs. L said we should.. Dunno what it does mind you.. suppose we'll find out.. :D

Fódla should have won.

Just putting that out there.

Fodhla? tisk tisk..

xD

Educating Essex yeow..

Mrs. L told us we have to blog about "Educating Essex". So BASICALLY it's a show, where it goes around a school and films all the interesting bits? So what was the main focus of the episode we watched, was a 13 year old girl who was getting bullied because she was head girl, (Aisling's our class captain, so I think she should watch her back) But anyway, she was getting creepy and plain mean texts off her "friends" so she reported them to her year head(or what ever they call it there) and when they found out who sent the texts, they were in huge trouble, possibly getting a criminal record, so the moral of the story is, don't send dodgy texts, even if it is a joke.
  The second person was a guy called Sam, who had low self-esteem and struggled in school and the like, so he took it out on everyone else and decided it was better to not try and look "cool" than try his best and not get it. He then started calling his friend Dean names, which then lead to his mam and his sister(don't ask why his sister arrived) to arrive at the school and have a big meeting, which by the way, the relatives had rubbish attitudes, like "I'd give him a black eye" and all this.
  Soo, now we get to the cheesy part where I tell you the moral of all this was not to bully people (obviously) and even if you think it's a joke someone might not see i that way and jokes can go too far. Oh and the classic try your best.

PS, we lost the fun walk.. Sad times, but Mrs. L said we were a close second, (and that she voted for us to win xD)

5 (probably not) interesting things I have to do this week :)

Well Mrs. L is out today, so for our IT class she asked us all the write a blog on 5 things we have to do this week, which won't be very hard.

1.Find some item of clothing I own that slightly resembles yellow, because it is a hideous colour that I don't own/wear, but I have to wear for the Fun Walk tomorrow. I also need to find some form of cardboard for our "super secret project" that everyone seems to be finding out about.

2. I'm part of purchasing for our mini-company so I need to see if there is anyone who would be willing to manufacture the product for us, and do some form of research for the company so that Ms. P won't kill me.

3. Actually get to work on this Geography project, because I'm still on my first city and i have like three countries to go..

4. Try find a bag of fake leaves for our Home ec design project, which for some reason, I think that won't be so easy to find.

5. Get around to buying all the stuff I've been saying I will for weeks, like the Irish scrapbook, the geography scrapbook the diary thing for religion, and I was going to buy our play - Juno and the Paycock, but if actually left it so long we've finished... Oops..

Well ye, there's my very interesting things that I have to do for TY this week, baring in mind this week only has a few days left in it.

Whoever said Ty was a doss year, was seriously having a laugh.

Byee,
Aoife :)

Note to Self.

Please can someone remind me not to leave my projects until the night before. Especially when I have no idea what I am supposed to be doing. What in God's name is a mood board?! This should be interesting...

In IT

ELLEN McC IS WRITING BLOG POSTS ABOUT ME! And laughing at me because my blog keep freezing and apprently I'm "Sarcastic".

"Operation Yellow Submarine"

   SOO, this week is the "Fun walk" (For all you don't know its a non-sponsored sponsored walk? where we all compete within years to have the best dance) and this year, I'm gonna go and say- without jinxing it- that I think we might have a good chance of winning! Our tutor Ms. O'c is REALLY competitive about it, so she's taking us out of classes to get it perfect and everything :) Our colour is yellow, they give us a colour like that and expect us NOT to spend money? Tempted to show up in green or something just for the laugh. Ty have to be the stewards for the whole school, which I don't mind doing really, just a bit annoyed about not being able to watch all the other classes dances!
I'd write more details about our dance and music and theme and stuff, but I'm afraid, that's top secret. :P

s'later,
Aoife :)
