"Running Around Like A Paycock!"
Yesterday ,The tired Tys got on a bus and headed into town, at about five minutes past nine in the morning.
First we went to a WB.Yeats exhibtion in the Library.It was so intresting to see all of his school reports and his actual writing and books.Then we headed to a Museum where we saw Bog bodies and Alot of intresting things about celtic ireland and Ancient Egypt!
Then we ran around having lunch on grafton street, which was a great 45 minutes , i must say.
Then we all headed off to see " Juno and the Paycock". We read this play in school but seeing it on stage was totally different.I didnt understand Johnnys character until we saw him on stage...
It was a great experience to see it on stage in the Abbey Theatre, and I dont think any TY group have done it?
It was great fun ,and i cant wait for our next TY outing :)

And tuesday rolls on.
Tuesday is the day of the week ,were you feel happy to have overcome Monday Blues, but knowing there are 3 days left in school.In TY each day is certainly different and tuesday I feel is a good day for Eriú.Istart with double art, and it goes on into geography,IT ( which is always fun).
Im almost finished my part of the geography project and its such a weight lifted of my shoulders! It feels really good to have done the work we are actually given in TY,really well.
Also ,now that we have the time , and im keeping up with my projects ive started hockey and Circuit training, ,and with my music outside of school , Im always kept busy.
Tomorrow ,we are going into Town for a Yeats exhbition, to see the bog bodies,and to go see "juno and the paycock" in the abbey theatre.
Should be really good :)

Blog Action Day..Food,Nom.
So for Blog Action day 2011, The topic is food. Something alot of us take for granted.When we think "food" we imagine heading to the kitchen and making up something , or not being able to choose from all the chocolates and crisps in your presses.For other people in the world, this is not the case , and today we are given the time to learn ourselves and teach each other about the struggle some countries have ,just for the smallest bite of food.
For example i looked into Africa.
Africa is a very hot country because is straddles the equator. It also passes numerous climate areas .Imagine trying to grow crops there?imagine watching them fail?With a huge population of 1,022,234,000 , there are so many people depending on crops.Another way they get food is trough cattle and sheep.If you cant feed your cattle ,they will die of starvation,and therefore cannot feed you. Imagine watching your sources of food die?Keeping in mind this is only in some parts of Africa.Still, It opens eyes, about the struggle of food for some people.
When I get home from being out or at school , my mam asks me what i want for dinner.I pause because I can choose,there is so much to choose from.Children in poorer areas,come home and dont have anything.Their parents cannot give them anything,because there is nothing to give.
In the Asian, African and Latin American countries, well over 500 million people are living in what the World Bank has called "absolute poverty".Every year 15 million children die of hunger.
Thats alot.
And lastly ..Every 3.6 seconds someone dies of hunger.
When i looked at these facts, I was shocked..and felt bad. I Never Knew and I think that not many of my friends did either.
When we go into the kitchen and see that our brand of cereal or chocolate isnt there,I think we will think twice about complaining. At least its there, at least it was easy to get ,and you will get your 3 meals a day,and be satisfied.
i only looked into Africa.Many other courtries suffer from this too.I hope my blog has opened your eyes ,and helped you understand how important food is, and not to take it for granted ,as that is the message i wanted to get across in my blog after looking into Africa and its starving people.

One in twelve people worldwide is malnourished, including 160 million children under the age of 5. -United Nations Food and Agriculture.
About 183 million children weigh less than they should for their age.
And lastly ..Every 3.6 seconds someone dies of hunger.

B.A.NAN.A.S
yay fun walk., tomorrow.Our dance is a laugh ,we have so many problems that we just laugh at them. All tys are put a stops to make sure that people know where they are walking,but it means we dont do the walk. cant complain. We are now rushing to make signs and faces and everything else for tomorrow and its not going a swiftly as we planned in our heads.So many opnions are being shared which is great, but we cant come to desisions at the end of hearing all of them.Me and caitriona dont even have our costumes ready..Wow now that a blog it , we are so un-prepared.We have asked about 6 different teachers to let us practice and every class we change some part of it. And now we have loads of moves, not enough time, its just not going to go well ,but being in ty makes you take things a little easier.So we will laugh any embarrasing moves we end up doing off , and go run off to our stops.RUN FROM THE SHAME!
