Didn't think I'd miss it .

It is becoming a reality that TY is coming to an end ..it's actually really upsetting .. I am going to admit I have been fed up for the past month but it just hit me there when I was reading my first ever blog post that this is all going to be gone soon. Yes there was a lot of hard work and my friends in fifth year think that this is easy compared to fifth year but TY has been I think just as stressful as third year in some aspects :L ..I actually loved every second of it though. Like yeah there were various projects I wasn't interested in but there was so many things I learned that I probably never would have learned if I didn't do TY. I would literally know nothing about the world at all :L . As we all prepare for our TY night it is becoming realistic that TY is over ? it's done but I'm happy because looking back on my blog posts I can see that I've put allot of effort into this year and the things that I've learned will benefit me for Life <3. I've made life long friends , and lets just say everything has changed ! nothing is the same as it was in that blog post from September. The advice I would give to a 3rd year coming into TY is be prepared for a change :) Its a good change though, I think this is the year you realize who you are :) whats important ! and your goals in life :) You definitely leave TY a new person ! it's a year you'll never forget. <3

A bike ride away !

BANBA hosted a class party last Friday for all TY's it was great fun and we all had quite the bant ;) all of BANBA brought in loads of food so I decided to home bake a chocolate caramel slice dish with aisling & niamh :) it was so yum ! Till we ran out of chocolate for the top :L so using the new bike I won at green schools me and niamh cycled to tesco to get more chocolate to complete the mission ...it was so worth it ..YUM

Maths Project :)

Me and niamh are stressed out to the max about our Maths project we did the statistics of the Cheltenham gold cup horse races and how the sex & colour would have an effect on the odds of the horses winning ! We stayed up late but we got it done ! Another project over & another step towards SUMMER

SCI FEST :)

We are just back from SCI FEST yesterday where all the TY's had to present their SCI FEST project ! St wolstans did amazing & me and Emma's project won a prize it was called "carpool to School" we were delighted ! At SCIFEST we got to see many talks on kewl chemistry and got loads to eat which kept all the girls happy :) it was a great success & was aloada fun ! Anyways I've got to go do a million projects :) the stress of TY :L

Hotel Rwanda Genocide.

We just watched Hotel Rwanda and learned about the genocide in Rwanda. We saw alot of conflict throughout the movie and it was really effective. The movie made me think alot about conflict and helped me to bring it back to my daily life and who Im in conflict with. It was so sad to see so many lives taken for no reason ..and it really hit me that this actually happened ..it wasn't that long ago . We learned so much in the religion module about conflict ...and it became real to me that this happens . The genocide is so sad and moving ..there are no words to describe how I feel after watching it . Seeing corpses left behind ...they were humans they had hopes and dreams and passions and their lives were thrown away because of nothing. Their whole world fell into destruction.

Its hard to dance with the devil on your back !

Well... ! tonight all TY's are performing in the music night ! we are singing and putting instrumentals to the song ''Shake it Out'' by florence and the machine <3 We've been working on this since the start of the year so its all really exciting :) We are on our easter holidays in 2 days and the weather in Ireland is amazing at the moment which is a first :) Yesterday !
