Selma

We went to Vue Cinema in Liffey Valley on Tuesday to go and see the movie "Selma" about Martin Luther King as part of our history. We left school at about 12:15 with our history teachers and got the bus up to Liffey Valley. It was so awkward on the way up because there was so many of us on the bus that when it was going up the hill it was going about 5 km/h! It was so funny hahaha!

 When we finally got there we went straight to the cinema and got our food and went straight to the screen. The movie was about 2 hours long. It was so good! It was based on the 1965 Selma to Montgomery voting right marches led by James Bevel, Hosea Williams, Martin Luther King and John Lewis. It was such a sad movie, even Eve Poole was crying! Never thought I'd see the day :)))))

 We left the cinema straight after the movie ended, which was pretty sad because I wanted some Chinese food... But anyway be grand! On the bus back we were playing our music through the speaker on the bus and Mr. Kennedy was even bopping along to it, it was great! When we got back we had to go to the hall for about 15/20 minutes before we went home. It was a really good day!

This week we went to Carton House to see the Vanishing Art Exhibition with the art teachers, but instead it turned into stalking the Irish Rugby Team! My friends and myself went looking at the sculptures around Carton, and we were by the river when a man came over to us and told us that the Rugby team were training and we all went running up the road screaming to go see them. When we saw them first they were in the gym training so we couldn't get pictures with them or talk to them. So what some people did was they went up to the window and took pictures of them. Anna told us that Johnny Sexton was down the road so I sprinted down but when we got there he was already gone. I sat there with Jane and Pia for a while when Tommy Bowe came out! Everyone screamed and tried to get a picture with him and some people got his autograph! The poor lad was probably terrified! Security had to come out to us 2 or 3 times to get us away! As soon as we left we saw the whole team come out so our bus driver drove around the car park to drive by them to get a picture! One of the lads put his thumb up and everyone screamed hahahah! Best trip by far :)))))))

On Sunday the 4th of October, me and Gemma went to see Ed Sheeran! He was unbelievable! I had been looking forward to it for weeks, then the day came! I woke up so early, not that it made a difference because we didn't get Gemma until 2! My mam will never ever be on time. When we got Gemma we went home and started to get ready! We were in the best mood everrr! We couldn't wait. After we shoved our food down our throat so we could leave, we finally left! 

My mam dropped us to the Luas at the Red Cow on the Naas Road and we were so excited! IT was mad how less stressful it was getting in as we had seating tickets. We would of rathered standing tickets, but at least we were there! We got there just a few minutes before the opening act Saint Raymond came on. They were amazing! It's just annoying the way no one knew their songs but I'm glad I know them now.

When they went off, time flew by before Ed came on! He was actually so amazing, and what made it even better was that it was only him on stage, he had no back up dancers or whatever and it was still amazing! Time went by so fast, it was so sad! It was really annoying when we were sitting and they didn't let us stand up and dance during the concert, but as soon as he said he was doing his final songs there was no way we were sitting down so we got up and nearly everyone was up as well! The atmosphere in the 3 arena was amazing and I can't wait until he comes back!
