To All My Rugby Peeps!!!

Conor Murray...

Right so..I think the time has come to let you into one of my biggest passions in life...Rugby!! More importantly Munster Rugby!!

Ok...Me and rugby never in a million years did I EVER think I would like rugby but I remember the day well!! It was a day in May 2011 I saw 'Rugabi Beo' on TG4 and saw it was a Munster match! Perfect I'll see Tommy Bowe I said to myself!! If your into rugby you'll understand Tommy Bowe NEVER played with Munster but there he was this chap with a big 9 on his back! Long dark hair and tanned skin and that was it.... Me hooked on rugby the name of this chap??? Conor Murray!! A 22 year old fella from Limerick City I was IN LOVE!!

  
So off he went to the Rugby World Cup!! And that was it my mission of TY was to meet him!
I tried EVERYTHING!! Absolutely everything .. I even got this made...6foot 2 ...Shur look we'll say nothing I was 15!! ha


Anyway... A VERY long story short leaving out shaking, makers, minstrels, bandits I've now met Conor 6times and was tweeted directly from him 8 times once where he called me 'Miss' Shur now if that's not friendship what is ;-)



 

 


So now Mr.Murray plays with Ireland and also last week was selected for the Lions tour!! (With the luck from my teddy) but unforch I have to now share Murray with the world :--(

So what this article was written for was to show you that if you REALLY want to do something make it happen!! I know there's a big difference between meeting a rugby player and real dreams (For example becoming a Jurno/Presenter) but YOU CAN DO IT!!!! :D
 So hopefully this has showing you that everything is possible AND Munster Rugby is the best ;)

Enjoy this video of Murray and I'll speak to ye all again soon :)



Gluk,

Am I Mad To Want To Be A Jurno????


Soooooo..
  If it's not clear yet it's my dream to become a presenter or Journalist or  'Jurno' as I call them due to my Hipster style. I'll come straight out with this growing up I NEVER wanted to be a Journalist to be honest I didn't even know what a journalist was. Media also something I have no interest in well apart from the fact I LOVE to talk.. All the time... Even in mass the struggle to keep quite between the prayers gets to me a bit. Plus and this is a random fact my favourite part of mass is when we all get to shake hands and say 'Peace Be With You' WHY!! You might ask? Well simply because I love meeting and talking to people.

So it was last year in Transition Year when we were told to set up a mini company that myself along with five great friends decided to set up a school magazine called 'What's The Banter' which I became the editor of now I'll tell you straight out now was not anything like 'Stellar' or 'Tatler' more on the lines of 'Nail Tips' and 'Hunk Of The Month' which for some strange reason always ended up being a rugby player...Who knows why ;-) after a Halloween and New Years edition and minus money we decided that our Enterprise must come to an end :--( However this led to be gratefully beneficial to me as it's where I learned I have a passion for Journalism. Also we were chosen to go to the County Enterprise Awards.. where we lost :-/ Anyway...Onwards and Upwards!! ha


I was never one for Science or Maths or German or well many school subjects now in fairness but one thing I could always do was talk!! And talk I did all the time!! So then one day it hit me.. 'Why Not Radio' so that's where my love of media and meeting people grew.

Next It became time for me to gain experience and information/advice so I met with Journalists and sent many emails and met up with many people and I also shadowed the best broadcast journalist in my opinion Zara King with Beat 102 103 (Jesus thinking back what an amazing day that was) which was just the cherry on top and my decision maker that this was the career I was born to do.

So now .. What's next for me???... Who knows!! I've meetings lined up with a few presenters/journalists while also some interviews done with the likes of  TV3 Xpose fashion stylist Courtney Smith, Tallafornia star Nathalie Geheraty and Woman's rugby captin Fiona Caughlan which I'll get edited and put up in due time. But apart from that I'll be found working hard and doing everything I can do make my dreams come true :)

Speak soon :)
