Science Week

It's Science week !!!

This post may be a bit late... but as they say better late then never! Monday was the start of science week and to mark this we went to the Institute of Technology Tallaght. As usual we got the blue doble decker bus, lets just say its not as nice as other buses.. Well when we arrived we were directed into a laboratory. The laboratory created bacteria in machines like below.

But just as we were about to move on Lauren fainted (queue exasperated gasp) but she's all right now thank god! We had to pass through the hallways of the college to get to the seminar room it looks so cool in college. We were sat in the classroom and were told there was another school coming, first thoughts were ..... will there be BOYS?!?!? Someone must've been watching over us as there was and a whole lot of them at that. Aoife even got caught trying to take a picture of one...creep (jkjk). Then the show began....

The presenter was British so he had a cool accent lol, anyway there was a whole slideshow prepared and it was brilliant with a hint of humour which was quite funny. So many things happened he shot a bottle in the air just by increasing the pressure within it, made a potato gun, told us were carrying 10 kg's of air at any one time if you hold your hand out flat and blew up a balloon containing hydrogen it made a huge bang and scared some people eeeeek!! He also showed this video of a vacuum...

Tank Vacuum

I found it really fascinating... 

Had my phone stolen by these two idiots...

Then we were informed my Mr. L on his "stage" that we were going to Liffey Valley wooo (queue girls shrieking). We went to Mc Donalds, surprise surprise, and of course sanpchat was involved... but we'll leave that out for now. We had planned to do a prom for mini company but the idea fell through, even so aoibheann and I tried on our prom dresses ... 

But as always these days come to end, but a brilliant day it was!!
