Extras!

Yesterday me and Tom went to Shrewsbury to be extras in a film!

It's a thriller called European Psycho...

Ambitious Cambridge scientist John, annoyed by his girlfriend's abortions and frustrated by his own dull existence, embarks on a “mission of justice” slaying elite villains and removing “social waste”.

When Tom first suggested that I be in the film as well as him I really didn't want to do it, I'm really awkward and shy so I just went into panic at the thought of being in a film. Especially when Tom got the dress code via e-mail, which was Jeans and t-shirts for men, but for women the dress code was leather leggings! leopard print! Flashy jewellery and high heels! I just thought no way am I dressing like that! I don't even own anything like that haha.

So I just went along anyway dressed as I usually do. We arrived really early so we had a walk around the town and the river which was really pretty.

The set was at a night club called Fever which is a 70's bar ha, It was a bit grotty and smelly :( eww.

But we met with one of the directors outside who told us where to go, there were a handful of other people there and none of the girls were dressed like the e-mail said so I felt a bit better and agreed to be in the film, which made Tom happier aha.

We waited around for hours because not many other extras turned up on time ergh! So while we were waiting  the director told us that the costume designer was going to take us one by one and dress us up! oh no!! So she took the first girl into a different room. She came out dressed in a leopard dress, black tights and heels. At this point, I was trying to hide.

Eventually I was picked, the costume designer was from Estonia and she was very forward and not shy about undressing me! but I was luckier than some of the others, she chose shorts, liney tights and a weird necklace for me, it wasn't so bad but I still didn't like it much!

After not all the people expected there turned up, they dragged in people from the street to fill up the club. We had to "dance" to trance music, It was kind of fun at the start, but after the 100th take I was bored and hungry and wanted to leave. 

It was very professionally done, there were lots of equipment and bossy directors. The main actor was Lee Ingleby who's been in quite a few good TV programmes and films including HARRY POTTER! yeahhh he played Stan Shunpike!! 

The set...

You can tell it was a 70's bar lol!

We were starving at the end of the day, so Tom took me for a meal in Whetherspoons, then we caught the train home.

I was so sleepy! to much skankin in da club ;)

Birthday cake!

I'm going to be 20 next month! ahhh I don't want to not be a teenager! not that anything would change, it just seems strange to me to officially be an adult, well I guess 21 is official adult age but you know. I always make my own birthday cake because I love it. My mom stopped making them when I was around 12 so I started making them myself (sometimes with a little help).

I've got photos of all my cakes somewhere, I'm just not sure where they are :( I need to get the photos down from the loft to have a look but that would take all day, It would be a fun thing to do though so I think I'll do it soon. this was my 18th cake (I think I shared this before)

It's Totoro from the anime film My Neighbour Totoro. This was was quite easy to make compared to some of the ones I've tried aha.

This year I'm thinking Moomin cake? or maybe an owl? Here are some amazing ones I've found on the web :)
