Well on monday morning... We all were at the esso at 7 am for our bus.. All sleepy and bags packed like we are going away for a week :P.. As we got onto the bus and took the long journey up to Carlingford we were all chatting and wondering what this trip is gonna be like..
When we arrived we got the rules and our rooms.. The rooms we're biggish but it slept 8, the girls in my room made the trip awesome :). As we were heading off to our first activity (the high ropes) we took a 20 min walk to get to it, when we arrived we looked egar to start but scared at the same time.. As that activity came and went we all headed back to the centre to sit down and our lunch yumm... :P
After lunch we headed to our rooms to get changed for the water activities, my group did kiaking and the other did canoing.. It was fun and we got wet haha the leaders decided to drown us with the salt water (which taste horrible!), when we were all dry and clean we headed back to the centre and had dinner... Then what awaited us after was the Night Hike :S...
Everyone got ready to go out.. in wellies, warm coats, etc etc.. My group went up a mountain (3 hour walk). Even though it was long, tiring and we complained most of the way we were pushed out of our comfort zone to get up the mountain and back down. It rained, hailstones, wind and was very cold... We made it through it, on the way down the mountain i fell twice (wasn't fun) and we all were shouting back to each other what was coming towards then on their treck down the mountain.. We made it as a group and we trusted each other by what was coming toward us :P..
When we were up the mountain a couple of the girls decided to start to sing to make the trip better as it was kinda quiet in some parts. There was a group of us waiting on the rest to catch up so we got a breather and S.B decided to talk about stories that were kinda scary, then i brought up chucky (horror movie) whilst we were scaring each other lol..
The group then decided to catch up (tried to scare us haha didn't work) eventually we made it down the mountain and home after 3 long grueling hours.. The other group was back like an hour before us and already settling into their chinese.. Which got some too! Yumm!! :D
The next day we were out doing more activities even though we were in soo much pain and tired (ah well).. We had alot of fun the second day even though we had to do the long journey back home (to our comfy Beds!!! :) ) Most of us slept on the bus home while others... Took pictures of the ones sleeping hehehe :P..
When we arrived back at the esso we all saw our mummies lol and hopped into our cars to go home..
Although nervous about the next day.... JUNIOR CERT RESULTS....
Next day:
As we all gathered ourselves out of our comfy beds and to school dreading the day ahead.. we all were chatting about the trip and relaxed in some of our classes...
When 12:30 came we all we're brought down to the hall and got our results.. I was first out of my old class Lon Dubh to get it and I ran to the back to my friends to open it.. with complete excitemet i was happy with the results i got..:D I went out to my mam and she congratulated me and we headed home after talking to loads of my friends and parents... Later that night a group of my friends went out for dinner instead of going to time :(.. It was a good night with plenty of photo's and wearing heels.. Even walking through the village was hard cause of the ground.. Luckily i brought flats with me :D...
The next day everyone was absolutly shattered and I wasn't so bad :P..
I know this is late... but ah well lol
Tyl.. :P
