Moulin Roouuuuge!!!

Yesterday was our home ec fashion show. as part of Ty home ec, each group are given a plain white t-shirt and white jeans and told to make an outfit from it! So today, after long home ec classes and lots of meetings to try finish our outfit, Today our model, Anita, walked down the runway in our school hall. our theme was Moulin Rouge, and Anita walked down to Christina Agulera's song Lady Marmalade! Outfit consisted of a pink corset, a black bow around her waist, a long black skirt which was floor length, with a mini pink skirt underneath. Thinking Back on our progress, we have come a long way, from changing our ideas many,many times, and from being told our outfit was rubbish, to seeing our outfit complete! we were all so happy that it turned out so well! and we were told this morning that we had come first in our class!! We were all so happy that our hard work had paid off!!

holidays are coming, the holidays ARE coming!!

Its the middle of December, and that can only mean one thing, Christmas is coming! this year i have been a little like The Grinch, and refused to say the C word  until only a few days ago, and now that it is the middle of December, I can talk about Christmas!! the Ty's have been getting into the Christmas spirit, by sending christmas videos to schools all over the world, from here in ireland, all the way to Ausrailia!! We have been having classes to sing carols, and yesterday, for Tutor time, i can safely say that one christmas song was our favourite. Of course its an irish classic, The Pogues, Fairtale of New York! This song has so many memories from school and Christmas over the years, and it is clear that this is Irelands favourite Christmas song!

Here it is! have a listen!
