Welcome all to the second week of my TY...
We've just finished our second week of TY and it's going great! We're really starting to really get into it. We're all still super tired from Wednesday (results!) night, so my post might not be as imaginative as last week's! :P
This week has been fairly eventful...
-Monday: We continued our "Junk Kouture" projects on Monday morning in our double art class and we're all feeling like proud mammies seeing it really start to take shape, come together and start to actually look like a piece of clothing! :D My group, Cliódhna, Alanna and I, have almost finished the paper mache bodice part of our dress and it's looking well!
In P.E. we started doing team-building exercises. We did the infamous "skateboard challenge" which I'm sure provided Mr. L, our teacher with plenty of amusement with our strange methods... :)
In Science we got into our groups for the BT Young Scientist Project and began to brainstorm and choose ideas and experiments to work on for the competition coming up in January.
-Tuesday: Second class on Tuesday morning means technology with Mr. W! We're making key rings from plastic using a lot of the equipment in the room. And in Home Ec. we were picking up from where we left off on our J.K. projects from Art the day before.
-Wednesday: On Wednesday we had a lovely treat, courtesy of our year head, Mrs. L. As we were getting our results at one o'clock that day she decided to surprise us with a lie-in, telling us we didn't have to come into school until half past twelve! :D It was a great start to a very nervous day... But we got our results and I know that I at least was surprised (in a good way!) at how I did! Turns out that supervised study actually works!
Thank God. :')
-Thursday: On Thursday, everyone was really tired from the night out on Wednesday and it seemed like the teachers had a mutual agreement to take it easy on us, as our brains weren't up to much strenuous work! :) We had a nice day, watching a film, "La Bola", in our Spanish class and brainstorming our ideas for mini-company later on in the day. :)
-Friday: Talk about getting that Friday Feeling! We really just spent the day today winding down into the weekend and talking about all our wonderful plans for Carlingford on Monday! We've made a class shopping list for all the goodies we're going to bring on the trip and starrting making plans for which rooms we'll be sleeping in and who we'll be sharing with! All in all, it was a good day and really got us pumped and ready for our bonding trip at 7 o'clock Monday morning! :)
