I almost forgot to write a blog for this week. Oops!

Well friday I barely got home because of the flooding. It was a very bad day for me. The only way home was through the tunnel and I didn't have a clue where to go after I came out of the tunnel because I never drove the road before. Luckily Dad gave me great directions so I found my way. I kept changing lanes after I passed the Silver Springs cos a new lane would appear to the left of me and have an arrow to go straight on so I'd go in that lane thinking all the traffic might be turning right but then the lanes that kept appearing would end and I'd go back into the right lane. I skipped alot of traffic though so it only took me an hour to get out of the city. Not bad considering all the traffic.

A RETARD of a learner driver nearly killed me to on my way home then! I was in a lane and the stupid learner driver in their stupid micra was two lanes away from me and I was just about to pass when it turned on it's indicator and just swerved from 2 lanes away right in front of me! Any competent driver would have waited til I passed but they just drove in right in front of me and I nearly hit the foopath and their banger of a car! I swear to god learner drivers just shouldn't be allowed drive on their own. Their a serious hazard! Their worse than drink drivers! Well learners drives wh can actually drive properly are grand but not the ones who don't even how to change lanes! It's not that hard like!

My sister came home this weekend. We went to Killarney saturday to go shopping and she really wrecked my head. It was like I was the boyfriend and she was the girlfriend. She'd try on clothes and if they didn't fit she'd get dressed, come out of the dressing room and pick up the same clothes all over again except in a different size! I don't know why I bother going shopping with her. Then sunday she went back to England so I have a lovely quiet house now again.
It's my moms birthday Thursday so we went out for a family meal saturday night. It was only an alright meal I've had better. And I decided I HATE PRAWNS!!! They've got little faces and legs and taste like rubber. We got mom pissed it was funny! She never gets drunk. She regretted it the next day.


Last sunday I went to the Junior B Avondu final in Mallow between Netown and Kilshannig. It was very funny. Newtown didn't seem to care bout the match and did some hilarious tackles! Then they lost so it was kinda sad. After the match we were starving so we went into Mallow for food. It's very disappointing that they don't have proper food in Mallow pitch. Then we came back and watched the Newtown seniors play in the league semi final against Erins Own. I must say the skill was slightly better than the first match. Newtown were losing at half time cos they were saving their good players for the championship. But cos they were losing they had no choice but to bring on Cathal Naughton. Within 18 seconds of coming on Newtown got a goal. Aren't they so great.

Next Sunday I'm going to the club senior hurling munster semi final in Pairc Ui Chaoimh. Newtown are playing Adare. It should be a good match can't wait for it!

I was absolutely freezing at the match my toe-toes were numb and everything. So next Sunday I'll remember to bring my hat, scarf, gloves and leg warmers! And two pairs of socks!

On Sunday I went to the Newtown match in Thurles. It was brilliant! They played Thurles Sars in the senior club munster quarter final. It looked like Thurles were going to win at the start cos they got an early goal but Newtown are clearly the better team. They showd their true colours and won by a point. Go Newtown!!! They're playing again Sunday week against Adare in Pairc Ui Chaiomh in the semi final so hopefully they will win that too.

Up Newtown!



That was so uncalled for!



HaHa LOSER!!!!


So anyway, college is getting a bit stressful. We've so many projects to do and so little time to do them! On the bright side though we have only 4 weeks of proper college left this year! Then we've a week off and then we have exams. :-( And then it's Christmas! :-) And my birthday!!!

Amanda, Shiv and me went to Isabels last night to do our web project. We're creating a website to publish on the internet. I can't say what it's about because it's all top secret at the moment! It's gonna be brill though. We got alot done. We did our site map which we have to have done for this Friday and got loads more done too. I also got to download the trial of microsoft project! It's so handy to have. It took me ages to get it downloading though because my laptop is retarded and pauses for no reason (I hate Acers) and the internet wouldn't speed up for ages. But eventually it got going and the connection was really fast. I love broadband! Pity we don't have it in Edenhall or at home cos I live on a hill under another hill! It's not as bad as it sounds we just can't get broadband in the highest village in Ireland! The one good thing about living there is we never get flooded. And we're always guaranteed snow in the winter and then we get practically house bound!

The Nightmare Realm

I went to the Nightmare Realm in Tralee last thursday night with my brother, his girlfriend and their friend. It was brilliant! I was terrified going in but it wasn't as bad as I'd heard (no pig heads or falling floors). They had a gone off trout which was horrible we smelt of fish all night after it! The rest was really cool though. There was a doctor with a seriously sick looking baby n he kept saying "you like my baby" n tried 2 make us kiss it. There were walls closing in on us, chainsaws and crawl through mazes. I never clung to my brother so much in my life! I'd really recommend going there though its so cool and scarey!! It was absolutely brilliant!


The Maneater!

Drawing Maize!

I had a really fun weekend. I went drawing maize with my boyfriend! I wasn't left drive the tractor but it was still fun. We were drawing from the maize fields in Mallow all the way to Mountcollins. It was a 2 hour draw one way and the road was really bumpy and bendy and hilly and if we didn't have the John Deere 6910 we'd never have made it up those hills! It was really scarey though it was like a rollercoaster!







<-----This is what maize looks like
(It's corn on the cob!)



Then it started raining and the field got very mucky and then another tractor got stuck n then they burst a tyre but then we burst a tyre so it wasn't that funny! We were waiting for ages to get it fixed and it was so boring!!! It was a great weekend though I might go do it again next weekend!



These are cows eating maize! It's rocket fuel for milking!!! HaHa

It was careers day in CIT yesterday. Thought a load of companies would have job placement offers but none of them did. No one wants to take on undergraduates anymore. Its quite depressing. :-( Wonder if we'll ever find job placement... The Recession sucks!
