History of Celbridge :)

Yesterday a man came in and he gave all of the TY's a talk about the history of Celbridge. He had a slideshow with loads of old pictures, it was interesting to see what it was like ages ago. I didn't know how much history Celbridge had until yesterday. He took questions at the end so we all found out loads about Celbridge :)

Juno and the Paycock :D

We're all going to Dublin tomorrow to see the play of Juno and the Paycock in the Abbey Theatre. We're going to a couple museums too - the Bog bodies and the Yeats' exhibition. We won't be back until like 5 o'clock, so we can get lunch in Grafton Street!

EXTREMELY hot sauce :(

So today's blog action day, and the topic is food :P

Now this is probably my worst ever food experience :L Over summer when I was in Spain, we were in a chinese restaurant called 'the Wok Buffet', you can eat all you want for just €6!! They cook the food right in front of you, and you pick what sauce you want from like 8 different choices.

Since it was a buffet, me and my friend decided to try everything :D After about an hour, there was just one sauce left: the Thailandesa sauce. So we went up to the counter and asked for it :) The man looked all serious and said "it very hot!"
We just laughed and thought he was messing.. we soon found out that "hot" was a HUGE understatement.

When we got to the table with our food, the man was staring at us, we were a little freaked by that, so we tried a TINY piece of the sauce. My friend spat the piece out in some poor woman’s face and I had a big gulp of water then spat it all over the table because the water got spicy too D: My tongue was burning for days :'( The man even came over to us after with loads of ice-cream, which was nice.. but seriously, couldn't he have warned us more?!?!

And to top it all off, when I got home, I got some ice from the freezer to put on my tongue, and guess what? The ice got stuck to my already dead tongue... Surprisingly, there was no long-term damage done!

We're quite well known in that restaurant now :/

Friendship week!! ;D

It's Friendship week so it's a busy week! :D We're watching a movie called Educating Essex in religion - it's about bullying. There's a few minutes left of it so now I really want to see the end :)
In mini-company there's loads to do :o We have to organise a lot and there's much more work involved than I thought :L We've been trying to contact a few places but it's hard to get them to reply >:/ it's still fun though :D We have another workshop for it next Wednesday, but I think it's in Newbridge this time (:


Tomorrow is the fun walk so I'm looking forward to that! TY's are yellow ;) (Fodla will win by the way... :P)

Mini Company Workshop!

Last Thursday, we all went to Naas for a talk about mini-company. It was kind of in a theater and there were two other schools there too. The woman there gave us some good tips on how to start off a mini-company idea and also showed us some videos of people who made very successful products. We were home by lunch time, then we had photography, pilates and dancing, so twas a good day ;) x
