Mixalidian

The cast lists have been posted. In amahl and the night visitors it seems I will be in the choir ensemble yet there is a spot of shepherd dancers that i really do want. Magic flute ensemble as well. But that is to be expected as a freshman. I went to an open casting call for a short film about sexual assault regardless of part my name once more is out there and thats mostly what i have been focusing on this year. Getting people to hear my voice and see my talent for years to come.

So in the matter of days it will be National coming out day! And im excited in the way that intend of celebrating this day. On sunday Oct 11 there is a National Equality march in washington dc and my self and about 50 other people from Westconn GSA will be be in the masses of people marching on capital hill demanding the premisses that the LGBTQ community received from on government leaders for a change in same sex marriage and right for same sex cupels.

I have taken stands before about who i am but this is the first time that i will be doing something to this scale. We will start on 15th street and march all the way up to capital hill. Im not going to lie Im excited and scared at the same time. To be marching with my new found friends and with people who i may not even know but share the same struggle. But thats not what scares me... It the people who will be standing on opposite sides of the marchers with hateful and curl intent in there hearts. Part of me will question every step that i take on this march in a way its like the prayer walks that i have taken with my church. And i wont lie i will wish my mom, dad, sister, and brother-in-law walking by my side. But I know that they love me and i will have them by my side for every step of the march and the rest of my life!
