Techology

Well for a while we have been making loads things in tech .
We made the keyring which was pretty easy to make and wasn't much of a task ,
After that we made a clock , it was much harder than making the keyring.
We had to draw out what the clock will look like with accurate measurements using rulers a deviders and loads .After we did the measurements we had to saw and file the piece down and then we had to melt it to bend it so that it could stand , after that we had to put our own design in the centre of the clock so i made a GREEN packman :D How original hahah , and then instead of putting numbers on it i put cherrys on it :) Its Looks good :)
Now where making key holders , they are in the shape of a key and we had to drill holes in it so that we can put hooks in it so that we can hang the keys on it ,
My snapped :/ but its okay cut im going to glue it back together when i have finished filing it down :)

movement

today in school Ian came in again to help us with what movements we were ment to do on stage for our drama , unfortunately we got there late so he couldn't help us with our play but we did pick up a few good points on how to own the stage when acting.
he showed us how to do throw a punch with out actually coming in contact with the other actor...
And he showed us how to take up a stage and how to walk on and off stage .
I learned a good bit :D

Croke Park

On Valentines day all the TYs went to croke park , I thought we were just going to the museum but we got to see everything .

We went under the Hogan stand and the Cusack stand & we also got to go into the changing rooms , they are really nice & most sports home changing rooms are bigger than the away changing rooms but in the GAA the changing rooms are the same which shows equality :D

We also got to go to the real top of the seats in the stadium , its sooooo high up!

After that we went to the "best kept secret" as the tour guide said , It was the lovely lounge that all the teams went to celebrate or comiserate after a match .

It was lovely! There was a lovely light made from waterford crystal and there was crystal footballs and sliotars , there was 32 footballs to represent the counties in Ireland . There is the picture of it >

It changes colours depending on what counties where playing :)

After that we went to the actual museum where there was trophies and medals that where won in previous matches . There was also games that you could play in the museum , there was one that measured the speed that you hit the ball , i got 72/KpH !

It was a great day and i enjoyed it allot :)
