Work Experience Uno :)

Last week we had our first week of work experience :) 
I went off to The Village at Lyons for the week. I had a really good time. I helped out with Clodagh McKenna for some of the week which was fun. I also helped out in the kitchen of the cafe. Everybody was so nice and it was sad to leave at the end of the week. I woke up this morning and felt like i was going to work again.
When im older i either want to do something with food like a chef or be a primary school teacher. For my second week of work experience,in march, im going to my primary school to see what both careers would be like. Should be fun :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
