MTV's My Super Sweet Sixteen... in Dundalk

My Super Sweet Sixteen
The latest phenomenon to hit Dundalk is the Super Sweet Sixteenth birthday of a local boy from Blackrock. It is the talk of the town amongst all the school kids and they all want to go, regardless of how well they know him, my sister being one of them. She doesn't even know the boy, but yet she is invited through a friend as everyone with an invite has a plus one which is they can take someone with them. The theme is an all white party so she is frantically looking for a white outfit everywhere. Another highlight of the whole thing is that MTV are filming it and have been filming the birthday boy for the last few weeks around the local shopping centre and ice rink. The venue is Silence nightclub and Lorcan is going to arrive at it in a carriage pulled by Husky dogs. Snow Patrol are supposed to be performing at it and Lorcan has many costume changes throughout the night some being a baby blue suit and baby pink suit. I think the whole thing is hilarious!

Kanye West Concert

Kanye West in Ireland
I went to the long awaited Kanye West concert Friday night. He was really brilliant, when he eventually came on to the stage. There were a few opening acts before him which i thought would never leave stage. While they were all playing, groups of thirteen year olds started pushing and causing everyone to fall on top of eachother or worse to the ground were you then couldn't get up. It was horrible and so dangerous because we were very close to the front were everyone wanted to be. I got a bit frustrated and roared at them a few times and nearly had to leave because i couldn't breathe, but i stuck it out until Kanye came on and it was worth it. He was amazing, but after about an hour and a half he just left the stage and everyone was just standing around wondering is that it, so that was a bit disappointing.

Modelling for Fiaga bathroons

I had a modelling job or might i call it an advertising job last weekend. It was my first time doing anything like that. It was for a new bathrooms showroom called Fiaga in Drogheda. There was a little boy and girl and then another male model, Paul. We had to act like a happy family, taking into mind i had never met any of these people before. I was suppost to be the mother,he was the father and the kids were our kids. Our look was the fresh out of the shower look as we had to wear bathrobes and towels around our hair and pose in baths and showers. It was really different, but it was actually quite hard to act like we all loved eachother, but we had fun with it. I had my make-up done as usual, but i didn't like it at all. It was suppost to be natural since you don't come out of a shower with your face all done up. I got a glimpse of the pictures at the end and i thought it looked like i had about six inches of make-up on me, but i didn't mind i got paid for it!
