Filming went terrificly! Sadly I have a feeling I may never see those scenes again. What a shame. I will have to steal some footage of myself sometime… which I think is a little bizarre. My favourite part was definitely the keys-to-crotch throw.
In any case, the post title actually has some significant significance this time. DAY OF SILENCE is coming up. Don’t know what this is? That’s okay – it’s what I’m here for (partially). Day of Silence is an international intitiative to spread awareness about issue of anti-LGBT bullying and harassement. Basically students take a vow of silence for a day (it happens to be Friday, April 25th this year) in order to demonstrate the silence felt by people with sexual/gender orientations which are considered to be different from “the norm”, because they are afraid to speak openly about it. For more information go to the event’s official website: http://www.dayofsilence.org/ , since I realise I am not a world champion at explaining things.
But yes! If you are a middle/high school student and don’t have too many meetings to go to this friday, support the LGBT community and participate in Day of Silence!
In other news, I finally bought the dress. Many things about it have taken me by surprise (the lenght, the price, the number of tries it took to find it). I’m glad I have it now though. I had several backup options just in case, which included a chicago-esque suspenders-blouse-tie-redlip number and a pink-sequened piece of my mother’s.
Weather seems to be in a happier mood now. Maybe someone offered lollipops in exchange for sunshine. If that’s the case, I hope weather never becomes diabetic.
