Opera, Opera, Opera!

  On Tuesday the 22nd, my class & I went to Rathmines to Swan Cinemas to see Don Giovanni the opera by Mozart. It was about 3 or 4 hours long and we got a 15 minute break in between. I must admit i really enjoyed it and I thought it was great to see an opera as i had never seen one before but i think it was a little too long for our first opera. However, i would definitley reccomend for other TY music students to see an opera as it makes studying operas so much easier :) x

Work Experience..

  Well, i went to LA MakeUp Academy in Dublin for work experience last week :) it was loads of fun. I got a chance to meet lots of new people including two girls from Our Ladys School, they were so nice and each day we all went for lunch together. We decided that we are going to keep in contact so we all exchanged numbers :)  During my visit to the Academy i also got a chance to meet Amber Sibley, the famous make up artist who did the make up for the crew at the new Alice & Wonderland movie , X-Men and many more :) it was such a great experience.
  while i was working there it was my job to keep the place spotless clean and run any errands. however the highlight of my stay with them was getting to model for the tutors and Amber Sibley while they showed their class how to do certain make up styles :) over all, it was a great experience and i would definitely reccommend anyone who is interested in that industry to go here for work experience. :)

Back into Routine..

  Midterm was loads of fun :) a full week to kick back and relax !...and do projects haha. Halloween was great fun :) i watched movies in my house with a few friends! then on wednesday i came into school for rehersals for the musical, i was in for about 2 and a half hours while we practised out dance for "How do you solve a problme like Maria"
  Then on Saturday, Me & Siofra helped our Friend Kasia (also in TY) to make a portfolio for her work experience. She is going to a big photograpghy study and to go she has to make a portfolio of photos she has taken, she already has a good few and they're all amazing but she needed a few more to finish it off. So me and Siofra went to the Kclub with her and we took some photos :) it was loads of fun and i hope Kasia is happy with the results. You can see one of the photos on her blog under Photograpghy!
  Thats all for now, Anita x
