Heart & Lung Fondation Fashion Show

On the 10th of April, Carrigaline Court Hotel hosted the fashion show in aid of the Mater Heart & Lung appeal. Following Sarah Jordan’s successful heart transplant at the Mater Hospital in 2012 herself & family hoped to raise vital and much needed funds for the programme which supports patients throughout the country who are suffering from debilitating and life threatening conditions. To provide vital pieces of equipment, support essential training and education and enhance patient care and support.
 
 
 
 
 
It was an amazing night with Sarah herself taking part modelling in the show. Clothes were divine, showcased from several shops around Cork. From the beloved Dress Bar who announced their moving to a new location at Penrose Wharf to the high-street shop Oasis. Whose floral High waisted pants are now amongst my “Wishlist” of desired clothes.

My week with my partner in crime

Every girl needs a partner in crime to help her through life. Mine comes in the name of Stephanie (Steph). She's blonde, health obsessed and in love with Irish (cough, cough..Aidan). Our adventure started from a young age (aged 3 in this photo) and let’s say it was always dramatic. But then again were Aquarians. Exactly 6days apart!! Now 19years old we ended up in the same College, same course, and hopefully (fingers crossed) same house.


To make matters even better she cooks. Though I was forced to tie 50 balloons late in the night. She made me pancakes with lemon and sugar. Best way to my heart is through food and tea. She also made me a cup of tea and let me watch "Honey Badger". If you haven't experienced it yet look it up on YouTube. It gets me every time!!


 
I received my SUAS recognition cert this week for my volunteer work with Sunday's well national school. I dedicated 6hours a week to teaching computer programmes and improving literacy skills.
Overall there is one thing I learned from this experience
"No matter how small you too can make a difference".

To conclude, this could be the picture of my new roomies and me for college next year!!

River Island Sale : My essential bargains


Tuesday morning 9am the River Island Sale commenced. Now normally, I religiously live by their sales and would be 1st at the door ready to grab anything and everything in my size. But this time due to living life as a "skint student" and being over tired from *STUDY-MONTH*. I decided to hold off till 12pm before I strolled. Either way I couldn't help myself in purchasing what I call essential items for my wardrobe.



 
 
 
 

                                                
24euro
 

                                                                         30euro
                                                                         30euro
                                                                         18euro
                                                                        18euro
 
 
 
 
 
  Now all I need to do is find space in my wardrobe to fit them. A task I always dread.
