Around the world trip :)
Well TY is really going great! We have a project to go around the world! Sadly it's only a project :(
We have to visit 6 different countries, two developed, two developing, two under-developed. The trip is for a year, we have got €12,000 each. This seems like a lot of money, but realistically it isn't. We have got to pay for EVERYTHING food, flights AND accommodation, it is really hard to do BELIEVE ME. My partner and I are having loads of fun on our around the world trip :) Might even go on the trip in the future ;)

Carlingford !! :D
Well it's safe too say that this trip is probably the most looked forward too by all 78 girls in TY. I can safely say it didn't disappoint it was AMAZING.
We were off too an early start on the 12th of September 6:40 am at esso station, you could imagine the sight of 78 girls sleep deprived girls it WAS NOT pretty :P
We arrived at Carlingford at 9 am all set too have great craic :D It definitely started with a bang! With a game resembled COD it was very eventful and amazingly fun! :D
After that we had lunch we did a challenge course, we were split into groups of eight :) one thing we did here was CB (community breakdown) this is a storage container with a maze inside, it's three levels you have too crawl, but it's in COMPLETE BLACK ! M group did it in under 10 minutes!! :D we also did other team building games along with that one. I really had fun on the challenge course :D
After that we had dinner, we had spaghetti bolognese and ice-cream for dessert.
after dinner we hiked up a HUGE hill, you could really feel the burn! When we got to the top it was dark. We were then given blind folds, and put into a straight one behind one.We then put on our blind folds and follow the person on front around the forest, we had to follow a rope also, it was really fun it's called the night line.
When the night line was over we headed back down the hill to the adventure centre, when we got back we had free time until 11!
I went too the chipper with some friends and got some food,m then headed back to the common room and ate it :) There was also a boy school staying over night. We all hung out in the common room and had a sing along it was good fun!
at 11 we all had to go to our bedrooms. I was in a room with 7 other girls we stayed up till three talking and eating sweets :D
We had to get up at 7:15 ! We had too pack up and clean the room before breakfast which was 8-9 am.
Out first activity was rock climbing and abseiling. Once again it was a HIKE to get to the place! It was really fun though. After a while people started too rock climb BLINDFOLDED I preferred the abs ailing to the rock climbing. We then headed back down the hill too have lunch.
After lunch we went orienteering which was good but a VERY long and HARD hike :) Our group were the first to finish :D We also did archery half way through the orienteering which was fun!
When we finished orienteering we headed back to the adventure centre too get ready to leave :(
Well the whole experience was AMAZING I would do it again in a heartbeat !!!
If the trip was anything to go by TY is going to be BRILLIANT :D

my first TY blog!
Well this is my first ever time to blog, so I don't know much about it. I go too St.wolstan's and I really like it! All my friends are in my class and I'm getting to know everyone else a lot more. Well we did social development on Monday 5th of September. Our whole class did it for the day. It is too help us to try and figure what type of person we are, apparently I'm a director.
We also have activities every Thursday afternoon. We do Pilate's, Photography, and Charleston dancing. The dancing is by far my favourite!!!
One of my options for the year is home ec. Our project is too make a dress out of white jeans and a white T-shirt, I think it's going to be hard but really fun! We have a fashion show at the end!!
We are also doing bt young scientist, my group are going to find out why we cry when peeling onions and how to prevent it from happening! I hope we get into it, as it would be a great experience, and sure that's what TY is all about!
This is only the beginning of a great year, I cannot wait too find out what else were going to do in TY !!
