Realist

Last Wednesday night was spent sipping tea, and enjoying some beautiful artwork. I attended an exhibition in Ballyfermotte called "Sharing Space." The project was started by students in February and will be on display until June.  The purpose of this project was designed to be a project which helped the community and art students of Ballyfermotte College of Further Education interact together. It allowed people to question the idea of both sharing and space. According to professors of the college; "The project brings together residents from the area with art students from the BCFE."  I went to this project to support my lovely friend Sophie. Who is now finished her first year in Ballyfermott and is now going on to study at the National College of Art and Design. No surprise as you can see from some of her artwork below.

Alice In Funderland was actually on my curriculum for English this year and I'm so glad it was! Many of you (well those of you who live in Dublin) have probably seen adverts for Alice In Funderland almost everywhere. I thought I would write a very short review of the show. I actually went to see it twice, and it only got better the second time. The show is witty, clever, and all round, just good Dublin craic. The constant use of Dublin slang and stereotypes throughout the play made it seem familiar to the audience and thoroughly enjoyable. One of my favourite quotes from the play would have to be  "nineteen ninety state of ye!" , anybody who has seen the play or is familiar with Dublin locations and slang would be amused by this ch...
