On the 12/3/13 I went to see one direction in concert in the O2,

dublin! As we entered the O2 we were welcomed by nice staff

and was offered drinks and food etc. , they were very nice and a

plessure to talk to! We were so excited to see Harry, Niall , Liam

, Louis and zayn. The crowd was huge and it Definetly was full

to the brim. Our seats were really close and we could see the

boys perfectically, the music was great and we knew all the

words to the songs, Roisin and I still couldn't get over the fact

that we were in the same room as them. My overall experience

was brilliant because they sang even better live , we had such a

great time , the opening act was great , we saw loads of people

we knew and got to catch up, the traffic wasn't too bad

afterwards! I would recommend going again as it was the best

night of my life!

5 fashion must haves for 2013

1, An Embellished Sweater is first on our list. These sweaters are as far from

simple, wether you're in shimmering sequins, or edgy studs, these cozy yet

glamorous sweaters will keep you fashionable and comfortable. Get

prepared to let the compliments come pouring in.

2, riding boots. Even if horses aren't your thing, rising boots are definitely

a wardrobe must have this year. The create slim lines and elongate your

legs. Which means there is a boot out there for everyone.

3, emerald nails. Pantone declared emerald the colour of the year, and

why wouldn't they, this lush green is a total stunner. Reds, purples and

metallics are what we usually see this year so don't be afraid to go

bold. Whether you prefer matte polishes or glittery accents, you just can’t

go wrong with this gorgeous shade.

4, something leather. This classic look can make a normal, everyday outfit

into a exciting, evening design. Even if its a clutch or fun cuff a simple

leather piece can take your outfit to the next level.

5, some spiky jewellery. You don't have to be a motorbike aficionado to

rock this look but it sure gives and otherwise-average outfit a touch of

edge. They don't just go with a leather jacket and combat boots, this

outrageous style looks especially stunning with girly or more classic looks,

like a lacy top and a no-nonsense blazer with a spiked cuff.

So will you be updating your wardrobe this yet with these inexpensive,

stunning features to pull off and overall beautiful outfit?

A Good Day to Die Hard

Directed by: John Moore

Starring: Bruce Willis, Jai Courtney and Sebastian Koch

Stars:

Review

Bruce Willis is off to Moscow

to save his son, John McClane

Jnr. from some trouble that

he doesn't fully understand.

Once he gets there, both

John Snr and John Jnr are

dropped right into the deep

end, when bad guys attempt

to kill them along with

Komarov (Sebastian Koch), the only witness to their evil plans. The

villain's plot is vague at best, involving politicians who seem to want

to be international terrorists, with no thought given to any kind of

reasoning behind it.

The story plops along lamely, shoot bad guys, shoot more bad guys,

have moment of understanding with crazy son here, then kill the big

helicopter boss. The dialogue is lazy and pointless; with Willis

exclaiming "I'm on vacation!" at least ten times throughout the

movie's short running time.

NEW POPE

Jorge Mario Bergoglio was elected the 266th Pontiff on

Wednesday night, March 12th during the Conclave of

Cardinals in the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican in Rome. He

has chosen to become the first Pope Francis which is seen as

a tribute to St. Francis of Assisi, the 13th century reformer

who lived in poverty and heard a voice that challenged him

to ‘’rebuild the church’.

The 76 year old is a Jesuit priest and is Latin America’s first

ever Pope. He is the son of an immigrant Italian railway

worker from Argentina and is a trained chemist himself.

When he was a teenager aged 16, Pope Francis had one of

his lungs removed due to an infection.

Pope Francis is a humble man and often took the bus like

any normal person. When he was installed as Archbishop of

Buenos Aires in 1998 he chose to live in a modest

apartment, rather than the Archbishop’s palace. In 2005 he

trailed second in every ballot to Pope Benedict XVI. His time

was soon to come.

On Wednesday night at around 7:00pm Pope Francis

appeared out of the balcony of St. Peters Bascilica. The

crowd reacted straight away cheering and waving up at him

from the square below. The first Jesuit pope has been

elected. Hugo Travers 1X.

The Food Pyramid

The Food Pyramid is a representation of a balanced diet and healthy

eating

Carbohydrates are one of the most important servings to have and we

should have at least six servings a day and are good for energy. Fruit and

vegetable are next on the pyramid and we should have at least 5 servings

a day. After that come dairy products, we need them to grow teeth and

bones with at least 3 servings a day. Then we have our meat or fish, they

contain protein, needed for muscles, so we should have at least 2

servings a day. Finally we have our sweets and crisps which we should

only have rarely along with oils that can keep our skin healthy.
