Lollipop Day :P

Today was Lollipop Day and we were collecting money for Oesophagol Cancer. We all got our own t-shirt and hat before we got on the bus in the morning, along with a map to see where each group will be for the day. My group was just outside Trinity college, so there were tons of people coming in and out :) We each got a bucket of lollies and badges with a place for people to put money into as well.

It was so much fun trying to get people to buy them. It was sad when people ignored us :'( but luckily that didn't happen too much! Most people were really nice and put money in the bucket and said that we could have the lolly ourselves :) And, when Louise dropped her lolly, a man put in €2 so she could have a new one! :L

It was a really good day. We raised a lot of money for the Cancer Fund and now more people are aware of what Oesophogal Cancer is, too :)

Mini Company Competition!

On Wednesday we had the mini company competition, so Orla and another judge came to our school to see all of our products! We all set up our little stalls in the hall and they went around to each mini company. My mini company is "Eye Candy" so we had to put on the eye shadow before they came.. So after they looked at everyone's stall, we gave them a short presentation. After that, we did a video about our product! :L We didn't get through, but it was a really good day :D

Kildare Town

Yesterday all the TYs went to Kildare Town for a pilgrimage because we've been doing a lot about St. Brigid.

When we got there first, we watched a short video about St. Brigid. Then we went to a cathedral and walked around inside it. It was freezing inside, but it was interesting to see what it looked like. We went to see the wells too. It was fun, but we walked SO much!! Good thing it didn't rain..

We got to go around the shops in Kildare Village and went into Starbucks, which was really good because it was so cold outside! It was a nice day overall :)
