On Saturday, we were broken into groups and each group was taken to a different place, so there would be a few waiting to see the judges, a few with RTÉ rehearsing for the talent piece and different girls on different photo shoots. I went to Smart Telecom to the hot-air balloon for mine and then to the French Market. I had a lovely morning and then my interview was in the afternoon.

I started crying once I met my brothers and then I couldn't stop. Then, I was whisked away quickly by the make-up artist, who tried to dab over the tearstains but it was no good because I kept on crying anyway.
