''just to be sure''

Hi every one, me hear again, owen that is, i just want to do one more blog, just to be on the safe side. i think this is forty five completed now. the thing is, what do i talk about to ye, while im writting the blog, that, i have no idea, let me think for a moment, eh,h,h,h,H, nope, i can not think of a thing to say. any way its summer time again and were all smiling, especially after such depressing long winter. The sun is shinning and every one is happy, but then again we are all shiny happy people.

4th place!

Hello everyone as you know all I ever blog about is football and Aston Villa in particular. If you have no interest in football your probably growing tired of the same topic week in week out... unfortunately this week is no different! The race for 4th place is really hotting up Aston Villa have secured 13 points from their last available 15 to put themselves back in contention for the coveted champions league spot. After an epic derby win via a James Milner penalty on Sunday spirits are high among players and fans alike. Villa play Man city at Eastlands on Saturday in possibly their biggest game of the season(excluding the Cup Final of course). I am praying to God that they get a result on Saturday purely to keep the dream alive until the last game of the season. Blackburn come to Villa park on the last day and i will be sat there in the Holte end cheering my beloved Villa on like a lunatic (thanks for the trip in advance Dad!!). I can honestly say that me going to that match is the best news i can think of!!:)

Hi all,
With only one week of college left there is plenty for me to be happy about. I got my scriptwriting treatment handed in early so that's one less deadline to be worrying about thank god. I've got a lot to look forward to this week, class party on Thursday (gonna be epic!!), house party on Friday and of course the possibility of going to Clane on Saturday for a session! After all that there's not a hope of me going out on Sunday for the bank holiday because I'll be broke but it's money well spent if you ask me.
Not to forget of course that after this weekend my name could be written in the TG4 history books! Kris assures me that his new short film as gaeilge will bring us all fame and fortune when it hits the small screen so that's certainly something to look forward to haha.
Finally readers this may or may not be my last blog. It all depends on whether or not United win the premiership so don't hold your breath! If I don't talk to you again have a good Summer and keep smiling.

A Hard Days Night... Shakesphere style.

I found this video on youtube a while back. Its one of the funniest things I've ever seen. It may not be news as such but if it doesnt put a smile on your face then your just weird. Peter Sellers is a legend. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zLEMncv140s

Have a good summer folks

The Bankjob

The Premier League

It's well and truly at the business end of the season and it is going to go right to the wire. This seasons Premier League has been full of goals injuries and controversy and in my opinion the best is yet to come. Never in a season has there been so many upsets for the first time in years the gap between the top four and the rest of the league has been minimal the big clubs haven't dominated in the manner in which they usually do. Still at this late stage the title race is wide open, I think last week Arsenals' title challenge finally faded but it is a great thing for the game that it was a three horse race for so long. The race for the fourth champions league position is still hanging in the balance, it kills me to say it but my beloved Villa have fallen away yet again and in my opinion its between Man City and Tottenham for the fourth place. At the other end of the table Portsmouth have already been relegated but there are four or five teams still vying for safety. This weekend of football will have a big say in the outcome of the league with Tottenham playing Man utd in the early game on Saturday. As for Aston Villa well its not impossible for them to gain that fourth place it is a funny old game aftre all!!

Chelsea 35 35 77 2 Man Utd 35 35 76 3 Arsenal 35 35 71 4 Tottenham 34 34 64 5 Man City 34 34 62 6 Liverpool 35 35 59 7 Aston Villa 34 34 58 8 Everton 35 35 54 9 Birmingham 35 35 47 10 Fulham 34 34 43 11 Stoke City 34 34 43 12 Blackburn 35 35 43 13 Sunderland 35 35 41 14 Bolton 35 35 35 15 Wigan Athletic 35 35 35 16 Wolves 35 35 34 17 West Ham Utd 35 35 31 18 Hull City 34 34 28 19 Burnley 35 35 27 20 Portsmouth 35 35 15

World Cup 2010

Despite the fact that our beloved Ireland failed to make it to the World Cup (were robbed by a dirty Frenchman) I am still very excited about it. The World Cup is the biggest event in world sports and the excitement that surrounds the event is like no other. This years tournament is the first to be held on African soil and I'm sure the enthusiastic African culture will make this World Cup one of the best ever. Due to the fact that Ireland aren't competing this year may take from the excitement of the Irish public. However I have the solution and it is a simple one...gamble!

The advert for sky betting really sums it up "it matters more when there is money on it". Never a truer word spoken. Myself and a group of my friends have set up a bet amongst ourselves, we drew teams from a hat at €50 a man. I pulled out Italy and USA, I have to say I feel a little unlucky but saying that you can never write off the Italians. So the other day I went out and bought an Italy jersey obviously it doesn't compare to the pride of watching the boys in green but it is definitely the next best thing!!

Nearly there

Hi every one, Owen hear again, im nearly there, just two hundred and forty nine more questions to answer on this weeks science exam, im nearly there and quest what? just two weeks to go till summer Holidays. i cant wait and no wonder im smiling, im spending the rest of the summer in one of the hottest countries in the world''Scotland''. what a holiday. im about to sign off for the rest of the summer, but before i go, i just want to tell you a happy joke. ''did you hear the one about the Kerry man who was ironing his shirt, he burnt his chest. HA, Ha, ha...

A little re-cap, im moving the week before my summer exams,no stress!!! this is my day from now until were moved, my husband packs as i follow him re-packing properly what he called packed,then he follows me around on my bining mission, as he un bins the stuff i ve already bined so really everthings fine!!

Summertime

Hi everyone, i just wanted to say hi again and what a beautiful day it is. its great to be alive and well. just another three weeks to go to the summer holidays, i cant wait for that. four and a half months off or there abouts, ya can see why im smiling and happy and there is another reason im jumping for joy, its the science project im workin on at the moment, theres only five hundred and twenty more questions to do and its so easy. this is even more enjoyable than playing the Fifa on the playstation 3, look im going to go as i have so much still to do, exams and stuff. i will see you soon, until next time.

Owen.

Here we have an aluminium body off a lorry which became wedged between a bridge on the new M9 motorway heading towards Dublin. It was a bit of an unusual sight to pass on my usuall trip down to college which resulted in me turning around in order to get a picture. A guard on site said that it was most likely the driver who accidently pressed the button to raise the container resulting in it getting lodged. And wheres the good news you ask? Well, with cars allowed to travel at 120km an hour on the road, it was pure luck that there was none travelling behind the lorry as there would have definately been casualties. So thats something to be happy about and with the weather as it is theres no reason why no one shoudn't be smiling.

Here comes the Sun

Howya folks Easters is over and we're now all back to the daily grind. But dont let it get you down. Its only four more weeks til exams are over and hopefully the sun will keep on shining through the summer :)

Enjoy the hols people.

Tats Life

Hi everyone,
I've been falling behind in my posts so I'm sorry. But sure when we fall of that horse (or wagon) we show our true character by getting back up again. So... happy. Umm well I got a tattoo yesterday and its awesome. I'd post a pic but my camera is regretably not working. I saw a great band last Friday aswell by the way. Mediocre they are called. Brilliant stuff. I start shooting for my short film on Tuesday. I am praying for good weather. Oh and Its Paddys day on Wedensday so I will probably forget to post again. Sorry... But life goes on and if me not posting again is the worst thing that happens then we have nothing to worry about.

Good Luck to y'all

Oxygen 2010

Oxygen tickets went on sale yesterday and this truly is great news. Personally I never really saw the attraction of Oxygen, to me the thought of camping in a dirty field without a shower for four days wasn't all that appealing. For years all I've heard from everyone is how great oxygen is and how much I would love it. I always remained sceptical. But this is a new decade, it's the summer of 2010 I'm a college student I'll be 18 and it has to be said that this years line up is fantastic.So despite all my past protests I have made up my mind, I am going to Oxygen and I am excited about it. Well if you can't beat them, join them!

Here is a list of some of the great artists who are confirmed for this summers festival.

EMINEM, MUSE, JAY-Z, THE BLACK EYED PEAS, KASABIAN, THE PRODIGY, FLORENCE+THE MACHINE, PAOLO NUTINI, FAITHLESS, STEREOPHONICS, DAVID GUETTA, VAMPIRE WEEKEND, MUMFORD & SONS JOHN MAYER, HOT CHIP, CALVIN HARRIS, NEWTON FAULKNER, GOSSIP, THE TEMPER TRAP, EMPIRE OF THE SUN, GOLDFRAPP, LA ROUX, WOLFMOTHER, RISE AGAINST, THE CORAL, BROKEN SOCIAL SCENE, ELLIE GOULDING, TWO DOOR CINEMA CLUB, ARMAND VAN HELDEN, STEVE ANGELLO, SIMIAN MOBILE DISCO, EROL ALKAN, STEVE AOKI, A-TRAK, AEROPLANE

The Hitman

As a wrestling fan all my life I couldn't be more excited about this years Wrestlemania. One match inparticular has the WWE universe in a frenzy, over 12 years has passed but finally my child hood hero Bret "the hitman" Hart will wrestle in the WWE one last time. As I'm sure most of you remember the "Montreal screwjob" at Survivor Series 1997, when Vince McMahon screwed Bret out of the title. Bret was outraged and he spit at Vince and vowed not to wrestle for the WWE again. About a month ago Bret Hart returned to Monday night RAW to say goodbye and make piece with old enemies. Mr. McMahon betrayed Bret once again by kicking and humiliating him. Bret was also injured in a "mysterious car accident2 in the car park in which he broke his leg. But Bret being the courageous fighter that he is still accepted a fight at wrestlemania against Vince. Will Bret be able to overcome his injuries and extract revenge on the cunning Chairman. Bret has 20 days in which to recover for the fight he has wanted for 12 years now. Regardless of whether he wins or not he will always have a place in the heart of the WWE fan and besides if anyone could win this it's the hitman. "the best there is, the best there was, and the best there ever will be"

Chape Whiskey Alert!!

Good news everyone! Aldi have decided to make it a little easier on us in these recession times. They have brought out a whiskey that tastes very similar to my old friend Jim Beam but at half the price. So at 15 euro a bottle I can safely say I'll be doing a lot more booze shopping in Aldi. Let the chape booze revolution continue! Go for forth armed with this knowledge, get hammered, be happy and for Gods sake shine on!!!

olives student hall of fame

This weeks student hall of fame award should have been handed out way back in september 2009, to the most loyal and committed stundent BEN, THE REASON WHY very simple bens class attendance has been spectacular, unmarked until recently that is, yes that bad word rag week, or should i say under the influence of alcohol, and the demonic pressure from unamed class mates, ben has missed one day in total well done ben keep shaming the rest of us we deserve it!!

A Hard Days Night

Hey everyone,
Found out yesterday that filming for the first film I'm directing will begin on the 16th of March. So if you see some guys dressed as the Beatles running around Carlow then walk in the other direction because I have enough problems to deal with without a bunch of curious little wankers getting in the way.

-Ben

Wayne Rooney continued his blinding form yesterday by firing Manchester United to Carling Cup glory once again. As I am a United fan myself this is great news! Rooney is having the season of his life. He seems to be scoring in every game and this leads me to ask, who is the best striker in the world. I've narrowed it down to Rooney, Drogba and Torres. All three are in exceptional form for their clubs and are almost single -handedly winning games for them.

2009 was a great year for Torres. Everything he touched turned to goals but similarly to liverpool this season he is slipping out of the limelight.

Drogba has been firing in the goals all season for Chelsea and has been a great attribute for the club since joining them in 2004. If Chelsea win the premier league this year which God forbid they won't, it will no doubt be because of the efforts of Didier Drogba. He was badly missed while he was at the African Cup of Nations but since his return he has been keeping Chelsea at the summit of the league.

Since Christiano Ronaldo's departure from old trafford in the summer, heads turned to Rooney to score the goals. Personally I didn't think he could do it but he has proved me wrong, thankfully! He is currently the Premiership's leading scorer and this season so far has possibly been better than Torres' incredible season last year.

Obviously, as a United surporter, I'm picking Rooney but i'll leave it up to you to decide.

Keep on shining, Eddie

Referees

My good news of the day is my heart has finally healed following the devestation of Villa's defeat in the Carling Cup Final on Sunday. Aston Villa can consider themselves extremely unlucky to walk away empty handed and a great deal of blame can be put on the referee for this. Nemanja Vidic blatantly hacked down Gabby Agbonlahor in the penalty area, the referee gave the penalty but failed to produce a redv card despite the fact that Vidic was the last man and Agbonlahor was clean through on goal. Personally I am starting to lose faith in the beautiful game. In less than six months my Country were unjustly knocked out of the World Cup thanks to poor refereeing and the hand of a Frenchman and now my beloved Aston Villa find themselves on the end of yet another disgraceful decision by the man in black. I have always been opposed to the introduction technology into the game, I was of the opinion that it would take away from the magic and the unpredictability of the game. However enough is enough something must be done to eliminate these kind of incidents from the game. I'm not entirely sure that a 3rd eye is the answer, maybe some younger, better trained referees would bring an end to the madness. All I am sure of is that the head men at FIFA need to do something before it is too late. Okay maybe I'm not over the heartbreak just yet!!

Owen Carling Cup Hero's

Hi every one, Im back once again. i just wanted to say sorry that i missed my paragraph on Sunday. You see i was in the pub once more and i was so happy that my Favourite team won the Carling cup, there known as the red devils, or more commonly known as Manchester United. so i had a reason to stay and celebrate the win with some friends. its good to celebrate, cause i am a Shiny happy person.

Down 5%

Ok so i just found out i have a project due for tomorrow worth 5%, and I havent started! So where's the good news you ask? Well, I just realised that I should start going into that class more so it was a bit of i wake up call.. Thats good news, I suppose!

Bucks coming to T.V.?

I've heard rumors over the weekend that the brilliant 'Hardybucks' is finally been made into a television series. I can only hope that these rumours are true because it will give us a welcome break from the crap that RTE put on the air, with the exception of 'Stone Cold Sober' of course :)

The Castletown boys have well and truly earned a spot on the television. They started making the series over a year ago and have featured on RTE's storyland competition. It's rumoured to start sometime in Febuary.

Here's to future viewing!

Go on the Bucks

Good news for Villa fans far and wide as villa's season goes from strength to strength. Villa have already secured a spot in the Carling Cup final against Manchester United and are also amongst the top contenders for the F.A cup. However prior to today questions have been raised about villa's prowess in front of goal. Before todays game against Fulham Villa have failed to score in their last 4 Premier League games. Gabby Agbonlahor answered all his critics today with a great performance and by scoring the only two goals of the game in a comprehensive victory for aston villa. Villa fans everywhere are left feeling both shiny and happy!!

Good news today is that the eagerly awaited fourth season of skins returns to our telly's on E4. The cast returns for there final season as the group of out of control teenagers who get involved in sex, drugs and eh..... more drugs. Starting at ten, Skins will certainly have people feeling happy. :D

Reward offered for former PM
