Hoallaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
  This week we made cheesecake in Home Ec. I was cooking with Shannon and we decided to do a jaffacake flavoured cheesecake which ended up tasting horriable :/ It was very sad but we had cake to cheer us up though because it was Shannons birthday.
  After the cake we had to go get into our tracksuits for a workshop called Jabba Jabba Jembee. It was loads of fun because we got to play the drums and loads of percussion instruments :D  It was done by a guy called David who was really cool and had lived in Ghana in Africa for a couple of years.

Im really excited for Friday because its lollipop day which had been postponed from earlier in the year :) Were going into town and trying to sell lollipops to raise money for cancer research.






Byeeeeeeeeeeeeee ;D

Howayaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Boiiiissssssssssssss?!!!!!!
  So this week we found out who got through to the next stage of the mini-company competition. It wasnt us :( I dont know how but we didnt get through. In the words of Honey Boo Boo child "them judges dont know a good thang when they see it" So instead of us Hair Couture and Williams Words are going through. We were quite disapointed but we got over it. Now in business we are going to be making a cereal box.




 This week we made risotto in Home Ec and that tasted really good. We had a few mishaps like forgetting the chicken and dropping the rashers but we got there in the end :)

Hoalaaaaaaaa,
   This week was very busy as yesterday we had the presentation of our Mini-Companies :D It was very hectic as we were all trying to plan our stands in the hall to impress the judges. The mini company that Im involved with is Stuzic and we decided to get a lot of our decorations professionally made to make sure that they would be of a very high standard. Luckily we were short-listed along with three others from our group to hopefully go on to the Kildare final. :D We are still writing and recording more songs for our app and CD. Soon the app should be on the itunnes store so everyone will be able to buy it :)

  So were back after Christmas and it is 2013!!! Waheeeeey!!!!!!! We're doing alot of new projects and subjects now because its a new term.
 
Our Junk Kouture is now OVER! Which I'm actually quite glad about because even though it was very enjoyable, it was such hard work and so much effort went into it that I was ecstatic when we could see the final result :D And guess what? All our hard work payed off because WE WOOOON!!!!!! AHHH! WOOOHOOOOO! Our trophy was a big tin of quality street chocolates. num num. :P

 


So because that is finished it opened up three new subjects!

•        TY Design where we are now making a teddy bear XD
•        Art where we are making portraits of celebs from casette tapes. It's a bit like Bruno Mar's video for 'Just The Way You Are'. Of course I chose the one and only Harry Styles as my celeb :)
•        Home Ec where we are baking!! Food Glorious Food!!! This week we made apple crumble and next week we're making cheese cake.

 

Before Christmas our class went to a ballet were they danced the Nutcracker Suite and a Christmas Story. It was really good and there were a few girls from our school that were dancing in it.




 That's all for nowwwwww! Byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

Hoalaaaaaaaa,
         The last Friday of school (before the midterm) we had to dress up as zombies for Halloween. It was good craic and Aisling C and Emma G looked like very zombiish zombies. Emma was chosen as our classes best dressed so at lunch she had to go down to the hall to be in a small parade with everyother classes best dressed. Sadly Emma did not win and so didnt get sweets (which I would have eaten) :'(
         I've been enjoying T.Y. imensley but i'm looking forward to the mid term break. During the week we continued on with all our different projects and I have a history project on County Roscommon that's due after the midterm.
Byeeeeeeeeeeeee

Hoalaaaaaa,
  Last week was pretty uneventful but like usuall we were working away with all our projects. Starting with our junk kouture, we more or less finished most of our dress so now were looking for ways to add to it and improve it. We're adding sequance and beads to it to make it brighter and more colourfull. We also have to finish the head piece that we started last week. In art we also planned and tested out our make-up ideas and face paint.
    We also properly started our tech projects for f1 in schools which is a competition in all schools registered to design and plan an F1 race car that will be able to be manufactured and raced to find the winner. Daina, Shannon and I are in a group together and Im the team manager. We're nearly finished and will be entering our project by Friday.

    We are also starting a new Geography project about different countries in the world. Myself, Shannon and Aisling are in a group and we have to pick two first world countries, two second world countries and two third world countries. Im doing India and France. France has to be done on a power point and India on a poster.
