Carlingford :)

Up bright and early Monday morning all excited for the two days ahead, we began our journey at 7 :) I had heard from former TY's that the two days would be two of the best in TY ! They were just great :) From the time we got off the bus we were put straight in to groups , my group was good cause we were mixed but still i was with some of my friends :) Our first activity was the best :D i looovee lasers ! from that activity on i didnt think anything could beat it .. and nothing did ! but the nightline and communication break down were two of my favourites too :) we were made follow a rope and hold on to the persons shoulder in front of us and walk through the forest trusting the instructions from the person infront . The communication breakdown was a great laugh we were put in a storage container with three levels and had to find our way out , our team did manage to get out but it took 45 minutes ( some boy had done it in 1 ) and we came back out the way we came in so we failed at that !
The rooms at the start were slightly annoying ! Our group was the only group split up and it was only going to be me and Emma in a room . Myself and Emma went searching for beds and across the hallway Sarah, Rebecca, Ellen, Aoife and Aisling kindly aloud us to stay with them :) After all the rooms wasnt so bad , we had came to Carlingford to bond with others and we did that ! :) They were lovely and so nice to let us stay .
Tuesday we were again woken up early ! I looked just so cherpy and awake going down for breakfast :/ (sarcasm!) Our first activity that morning was rockclimbing and abseiling :) i was terrible at rockclimbing ! I did nearly reach the top but i just couldnt hack it and had to get back down , i was shaking ! Abseiling on the other hand was so much fun! Our last activity was not the most exciting , it was orientering . We were sent up a mountain with a map to find letters !  I was with me bestos tho so it wasnt that bad :) we had little stops along the way , a great chat with Luke and another with John. We eventually had no idea where we were and decided we should just go back to the centre and ask can we go shops :)
We had our last little chat with the instructors and it was time to say good byee :) Mrs. L had her great rap and the two days were over , they were an amazing two days .. I love TY :)

First TY blog !

This is my first time making a blog so im not too sure what im doing ! Its been over a week since i started TY , although we haven't done too much just yet i love it so far ! I was put into class Banba and i am so happy with the girls who are in my class , it should be a great year :) In the first week we were given four projects; Young scientist , geography , home-ec and mini-company. I'm excited to get started on the science project , if we come up with a good enough idea we will be able to show our project at the RDS. I'm not sure how the geography project will go it seems to be alot of work but i'm sure it'll go okay ! The home-ec project seems like lots of fun, we were put in groups of four and have to design a dress. Our mini-company class is alot of fun and we have already decided what our team is doing .. I cant wait too see how we do and how it looks :)
Thursday is a great day , weve just activities in the afternoon. There soo much fun ! We do pilates which is my favourite , charleston dancing with Ms O'R and photgraphy with Rob Love which are both also good crack :)
We are just 4 days away from Carlingford , its going to be soo much fun , I cant wait!  :D
