well, it was a table really... [oh, and club day is this thing where a bunch of the clubs set up in the commons, or another area in the school, and give out information about hteir club. we tell when meetings are, etc. etc.] anyway, we had little flyers and stuff, and our board explaining our purpose and whatnot. and a bunch of people singed up! it was so cool! my friends and i got excited that there were so many people interested in it... i dunno, it just felt good. we got two papers' worth of names, and that was only in B lunch. my friend said they got about the same at A lunch. there were, of course, rude people that laughed, and some made rude comments. however, it was just a handful of kids, and almost nothing compared to the tons of kids that signed up. anyway, i'm looking forward to the next meeting to see how many people show up!

ooh yeah i know whatcha mean bout the voting thing, and i just got a couple more people to support me in the GSA club that'll help me find other people to join. Another school in my district has one so I might actually find several others who will join or just apporoave of the club in general. They preach against LGBT? that is some hardcore discrimination there, i've been raised in a strict roman catholic society my whole life but i've never seen anyone really persistant to stop LGBTs..
I have another question, what is it you do in a GSA meeting? if i'm gonna be the 'leader' i need some ideas of what i'm gonna do once i get the group going...
thanks for your help lately, i've really been stressing about it

well, you can start planning for coming out day. it's on october 11, but you should celebrate on the 10th. our club is making t-shirts to wear around school, and we're going to make posters with statistics about coming out. you should do the posters and shirts, that's not only fun for members, but it gets other kids interested, and the posters let them know a lot about it. Also, transgender rememberance day is coming up. i'll give you the date, i can't remember it exactly now. but, we were going to make the flyers and posters again with statistics of transgendered suicide rates, and of transgendered people that had been murdered. this kind of makes the kids in your school see that they are real people, and the cruelty people can have i guess. also, some of us were planning on cross-dressing that day. after that, there's day of silence in april. that's awesome. i can give you more info when march rolls around, cos that's usually when we start preparing and stuff.
it's no problem! i love helping out, giving ideas and whatnot. i understand how stressful it can be, it can be kinda scary. i have to hide that i'm in the club, from my mum. it's hard, cos i'm so into it, but i can't share it or anything.

that reminds me of a bumper sticker i saw on a car in the parking lot of chic-fil-a "marriage= man+woman" seriously offended me but i didnt do anything about it.. which pisses me off more than the sticker... so your parents know about you? mine don't.. well.. at least i dont think they do..
oh cool i didnt know there was an official coming out day. my friend cas just told me there's gonna be a huge party in the old town of where i live celebrating it
haha i feel so outta the loop for not knowing for so long
she also told me our school tried for a GSA last year but it didn't work.. that just killed my confidence but i did find some new bi friends so that makes up for it a little
hey i got another question, who's that in your signature? is it a LGBT show?

ohhh, no. i tried to tell my mum once, but i kinda broke down, and she decided it was "just a phase." or i'm "confused" or whatever. i just agreed cos i was so afraid. we pretty much pretend it never happened i guess. but i think i drop hints every now and then. i think she'll figure it out when i have a gf... if not, then hey, that's her fault. i wanna tell her when i'm not financially or emotionally dependent on my family anymore, so there won't be so much fear of rejection... it'll still hurt though.
aw, that's so cool! and yea, i feel outta the loop sometimes too. sweatdrop yea? well, you can still try i guess? if not, than maybeh next year. and more friends always makes things better! my group seems to be growing quickly.
oh, that's Tegan and Sara, it's a band. Well, they're twin sisters, and their band is called Tegan and Sara, cos they're names are Tegan and Sara... confusing xD i love em tho
