Lá Glas

On Wednesday we had our annual La Glas, it's usually the day before St. Patricks Day. On like the Monday we were told that we have to dress like air hostesses and tourists. So I decided to wear my schoolbag really high and wear suncream on my face and wear sunglasses. Most people did that as well but Ruth and Chloe dressed up as pilots and they looked great; Ruth even had a pilots hat and shades. A lot of people came in dressed as tourists and everyone just looked really cool. It happens we were in English and Leah from the other TY class came in and said that her class was going to come in to get pictures of all the TY's. We then all started laughing because Ms. L walked in and she was wearing a suit as if she was a pilot and it was so funny because of the way she walked into the room. We took loads of pictures and at one stage Ms. B had to take pictures on like 8 cameras. We were all so excited because Leah and Ailbhe had planned a little scene that we could act out in the courtyard. We were in Irish and Leah asked could 2 people volunteer to be Batman and Robin, Niamh P and Davina sort of, volunteered to be them. :L

A few minutes later they arrived back into the classroom all dressed up and the whole class and Mr. S could not stop laughing because they looked so funny.

I couldn't wait to go out to the courtyard and for everyone to have fun but we had to get past double rugby first, that was a downer for some people but I wasn't gonna let that stop me. Near to the end on of our instructors Ross showed us the weird dance thing they do in New Zealand before a rugby match. We sort of bribed him into seeing as he is from there. When the bell rang we all ran to the3 courtyard to get a place so we could see everything. My friend Jeanne came along and sat beside me and when I told her that my class were in the ceili she just started laughing. When everyone was outside there was about 5 people who were going to do some Irish Dancing and Karen was 1 of them so we were all cheering her on. The music was very load and me and Jeanne were right beside it!

There was 6th years in control of the mic and music so they introduced all the years and the representatives came walking out and showing off their costumes to the judges. The judges were Mr. S, Ms. H, Ms. W, and Mr. O'C and they were all smiling when they seen everyone who took part. When they called the TY's we all just got up and started walking around acting like people in an airport, nobody knew what was going on but that was the fun of it. Seeing as Ms. L was the main pilot she was the one who got tied up by the bad guys and I could see the judges faces and they couldn't stop laughing. In the end everyone was cheering and we were all so happy that we pulled it off.

After everyone got up and started doing some Irish Dancing and then Mr. S and Mr. O'C came over and took me and Orlaigh's hand and started dancing with us, it was so funny and Orlaigh was laughing because I was in bits laughing and then the funny thing was that Mr. O'C tripped over a schoolbag and he was pulling me down as well but we got back up and kept dancing and laughing. All in all it was a funny day and the TY's got 8 Easter eggs so we spilt them between the 2 classes and got 1/4 and egg each. :L
