ACCORD :)

A woman called Margaret came to talk to our class yesterday :) She was from Accord. She talked to us about relationships ,how we should hold in our anger sometimes and basically told us the birds and the bees story. She also talked to us about how boys function ,what goes on inside their minds and what She was really good and everyone really enojoyed the talk. :D

Mini Company ,A new idea :D

Our last idea was working out to be very expensive. We had to start thinking about a new idea. Our new idea ,hopefully ,is going to be a product which holds your glasses on a little ring. The ring is attached to a clip which you can put on your top. There is also a suction cup so you can stick it to your fridge or computer so you wont misplace yout specs ;D

Naas ,round two :)

We went to Naas again on Wednesday the 20th of October. Orlaigh talked to us about more detailed things this time. She wanted to know whether we had a prototype made so she really understood what we were doing. She also told us ways to advertise our buisness.  

Colour me beautiful :D

Two fashion consultants came to our school on Friday the 15th October. They put us into groups by the colour of our hair ,eyes and skin tone. I was in the soft group because i have quite sallow skin ,brown eyes and blonde hair. The two women told us what colour clothes we should wear and also what kinds of makeup too. Our colours were greens (khaki ,moss and emerald) ,browns (tan ,camel and beige) and peachy pink colours like coral ,orange and rosey pink.
I really enjoyed this workshop as now when I go shopping I know what colours to get that will really suit my skin tone :D

Mini company talk number two :)

Today we had another mini company talk with a man from NUI maynooth. First he talked to us about the course he lecturers in the college. He then talked to all of our groups individually. He told us that our idea was great but it would be very expensive to make. Instead of having electrical components in our tracking device ,we will now have a solar panel on top of a suction cup. Also on this ,there will be a spring with a ball on top. The ball will have a light in it powered by the solar panel. During the day you can find your car with whatever design you have on top of the spring. When it it dark you will be able to see the light to help you find it.
 Hopefully this will work out and we will make a profit ;)
