On the 8th of January we went to the Young Scientist. There was a lot of really good projects. There was also the RTE radio station and there was also camera men walking around with big cameras. There were two presenters that a lot of people started chasing when they were leaving. The new boy band Hometown also performed at two tube. Me and my friend were really close to the front so we decided to leave early because we didn't know the band and people kept pushing and we ended up being squished in there.


All Ty's have been working on their english plays. Each group had to write their own script. Last Tuesday we went to Mullingar to perform our plays. I was in charge of doing the lighting and the sound effects with another girl in my class. Our play was called Schizophrenia. At the very back of the theater there was a small room that had all the equipment for the sound and lighting and there was a man in-charge. We had to go and explain what kind of lighting we wanted and when but we got to do the sound ourselves he just showed us where the volume was. We had a gunshot at the end of our play and because we have never used the equipment before it was hard to determine how loud the sound was going to be. We accidentally turned the volume on loud and the gunshot came out really loud and we frightened the audience. It was fun watching people from the other schools perform. We also got to go to McDonald's for lunch.


 This week was the last week of Zumba. I really liked zumba and it was really fun, we also got to miss two classes.
