Well this is my 2013 round up. The year has flew!! Had some tough moments throughout 2013 but also had some great moments to make up for that! I'll start off by showing you me meeting soap stars. First Brax from home and away, then Heath. Then me meeting David Wicks who plays Joey Branning in Eastenders.
I can't forget the amazing one direction concert in March...
Finishing school..have to say I was ready for this. Yeah I had some great times in school, but my final year wasn't that enjoyable...between the stress of the leaving cert and drama with people with I thought were friends.
Above is me and my bestie Kelly just after we finished school. We wouldn't have gotten through that final year without each other.
Finishing the Leaving Cert
After all the hype surrounding it and the stress of it all, I was finally finished them. I had gotten through it! I was free haha! I knew that I had done my best and that's all I could have done. I had done loads of study and done my best in my exams so I was just hoping that it had paid off.
Turning 18
As well as turning 18 in June, I also decided to set up my blog. After ages of reading blogs, I decided to take the plunge. I can't believe I set it up 6 months ago. Yes it still feels like I'm talking to myself sometimes but I'm enjoying blogging. I'm going to stick with it. Hard work pays off eventually (here's hoping haha). A look back at some of my outfit posts...I'm going to try to make these better next year and feature them more on the blog.
Some Summer memories...

Getting the leaving cert results... I worked so hard throughout the LC year to get the points for nursing. When I got my results, I was delighted with how well I done but I felt really disappointed as I didn't think I had enough. The morning of the cao offers, I got up at half 5. I looked on twitter and saw that someone had leaked the cao results. Shaking, I tried to find the course I wanted as quick as I could. I saw that it was the amount of points that I got..but it had the * sign beside it, which meant that all students with these amount of points weren't all offered a place and random selection occurred. It was getting closer to 6 o' clock and I was so nervous. I was literally praying that I would get the course that I wanted. I clicked in at 6 o'clock..no offers for the course I wanted...general nursing. I was offered the next best thing but I really wanted the general nursing. 2nd round offers came a week later...still no offer!! It was so disheartening because I worked so hard and got the required amount of points. I accepted the course that I got offered, which was in the same college. The day before I moved I got a phone call from the college...the woman on the phone to me said ''I'm going to ask you something that requires a yes or no answer...do you want a place in general nursing?'' Yes I shrieked!!! Finally got what I wanted..all the hard work seemed worth it!
Results night!
CAO offers...
