Podcasting
On Friday we had a Podcasting work shop ,
it was really good.
What is podcasting?
Podcasting is a wonderful way of allowing people to share there work and experiences with huge audiences over the internet !
Myself Niamh Siobhan Saidhbh Lauren & Alison made our own podcast ,
We pretended we where a radio station that made up an ad to promote the fact that there is no Irish food take away fast food shops .
it was really fun , we recorded it and then edited it by putting backing music on it :)
I hope i get to do more podcasting :)

Review of the week
The week itself was a great work and I learned sooo much ,
I wasn't really interested in becoming a guard but now im kinda considering it cus it seems like interesting fun :)
I had such a good time and had fun with 11 other TYs from different schools :)
Im not sure that i actually got into the whole working routine thing because as the garda said he cant really make us do work when the guardas work varies everyday , and that they would of loved to of brought us around on the beat but just wouldn't be save yeno ..
it was really good :)

Work Exp day Templemoore :)
Sorry haven't blogged in ages ,was doing work experience and mid term and all .
Work experience was great . I'm gonna tell you about the whole week
Day 1: On Monday we went to Tipperary to the garda cóiliste , This is where all the students that want to be a guard go , there was no students in it though because the country can't afford to keep it open at the moment and they don't know when it will re-open ,
I had to dress formal , The guards told us to be quiet while being in the colaiste , we went to a little guarda museum and we saw all the old uniforms and more modern uniform and what all the badges and crests mean on the guards jacket . After the museum we went upstairs to the lecture halls and we saw where all the students would be when they are lecturing , there was around 200 seats in each lecture hall , the guard that was giving us the talk said that there sometimes wouldn't eve be enough seats at some serious lectures , after that we went for lunch in the cafe , By then i was talking to everybody , finding a few mutual friends :)
we then went to the bedrooms where the students stay , they where kinda small but livable ,

Science Project ,
We did the experiment for science :D Yeoow
We looked up on google to see what substance would show up under a black light , it said that lemon juice and washing powder would , so we tried both of these out but they didnt work , so after further research we saw that vasaline shows up under a uv light , we tested it incase it didnt , but it did :D
So on monday we but vasaline on our hands and just ate in our lunch room , At the end of lunch we turned off the lights in our lunch room and switched on the uv light , everything that we had touched showed up under the uv light in a greenie colour , we took pictures and took note of the things we touched ,
in a few days we will be gettin a swab of our hands and putting it on an agar dish and will be examining the result , this will show us how important it is to wash you hands .
