All around cute...

 

Well lets do a bit of catch up,

Saturday went very well, everyone looked very nervous  but when they came out they looked like completely different people, personally i was hoping it was due to the feeling of being brave for lil one out there in pain, but i rate it was the nerves that were trying to calm down ;)

A few were asking SOOOOO many questions, it's sad to think that in order to feel comfortable in a situation or with a person that you actually have to question EVERYTHING about them....

I had SO many people asking me -

Why do i consider myself an activist?
How do i play a role in this event?
Can i have a disclaimer saying that the pictures are going to PETA only?
How long will i have to wait, I'm in a rush?

The list continues, here is what i have to say -  F%&@ OFF!
Seriously, if you had to be interrogated like i had to from all these strangers,you'd say it to, it's so wrong, it's like South Africans have evolved into a non trusting whining race....WTF?
When i was over sea's and a stranger invited me to go out, i went out with them, i never asked where are we going? what do you do for a living? how do you feel inviting strangers out etc

Seriously - WHY DON'T WE TRUST ONE ANOTHER ANYMORE?

I made sure i greeted everyone there and find out how they were feeling for the shoot, in case they were nervous and needed a pep talk, but as i slowly went round i could see people were weirded out by me making conversation with them since i don't know them............HELLO......what the hell is wrong with that?I thought i was being very hospitable, and that's how i was raised in my family, you greet someone with the intention to learn something about them. Not how they do it nowadays -

Hello how u? Good thanks and you? Good.

Really take a look the next time a South African greets you, sometimes they don't even wait around to hear how you are, it's my pet peeve - when you ask someone how they are and then walk away while they are about to say fine. ARG!

My point after ranting is - IF YOU LIVE AMONGST THE ANIMAL CARING VEGANS TYPE DON'T EXPECT US NOT TO GREET YOU AT OUR EVENTS CAUSE WE ARE ACTUALLY VERY FRIENDLY PEOPLE WHO AREN'T OUT TO SCAM YOU, WE JUST SINCERELY WOULD LIKE TO KNOW HOW YOU ARE DOING!! WE ARE VERY COMPASSIONATE.

But onto a better note, we had 47 people in total arrive which was a great turn out especially because it's a NAKED event, hehe.

At 4pm we did a group photo which involved having a whole bunch of strangers take off their kit to pose together...it was great fun thanks to Dina and Andre the photographers from Funk Foto's, they were great through out the whole experience,thanks guys :)

I must give a well done to the lesbian community as we had a lot of them showing face for this charitable event...they were amazing and some were even jumping to pose with my sweet naked boyfriend, hehe.

I made so many Halloween sweets and I'm not force feeding the Fizzers and Sugus to my friend Nicole, she's a meat eater and I'm keeping the Sparkles ;)
In fact Chantelle and i were doing a bit of an FYI that we both knew about but i then realized that alot of you might not know...

Fizzers have egg in them so shout out to all the Vegans and Sugus has gelatin...so Sparkles are the only safe bits for Vegans ;)
Don't Forget!

Through out this post i have posted pictures of cute lil reasons why i get out of bed in the morning and sit here and write, and plan my events and the list goes on...i got these pictures on an e-mail and i had a huge smile on my face throughout the whole thing. The fact of the matter is i get drive from the cuteness of animals and the hardship of them too, both extreme sides inspire me to change there lives to something better...they deserve WAY more respect than we actually give them and since we have done all this damage we will have to undo it - so Mary Kate and Ashley and Victoria Beckam...keep wearing those fur items, soon you'll be totally out of fashion and depending on how much force we have, your mink coats may be even illegal!

Well that's my afternoon post...my 60th post to be precise...

 
 
 

A pinch and a punch for the first of the month
Don't forget to say white rabbit...it's good luck ;)

Kindness hope and Thanks

Hi all


This is the last message before the big day this Saturday. 1 more sleep left!

I've realised that a lot of you are a bit panicked as to what will be happening, so here's the brief low down, at the event i will also be running through a few things with you to keep you all up to date as to where you should be and what you should be doing-

The process is that you will arrive and go through some admin, then you will go and get bare and cover yourself either with a gown or sarong or towel that you have brought, then you will wait in a cue for your turn and then go through into the studio where you will be alone with the 2 photographers and maybe me when i am checking the photo's.

The whole process will take max 4 min....and in comparison to the suffering that the animals go through on the fur farms for their lives, 4min of embarrassment wont be such a suffering.

It is going to be very tasteful and no bits and pieces will be shown, plus if your afraid of a lil bumps and lumps we will be photo shopping your photo.

You will not be made to feel uncomfortable at all, and it will be very private.

After that the pictures will be sent to PETA and no where else, if you would like a copy , it's based on request, so all you have to do is e-mail me at spreadtheword@hotmail.co.za and ask for your copy.

There will be lots of stickers and pamphlets about our other causes, thanks to sarah and i will probably be available to talk to you about a few of them, depending on how the day goes :)

For the ladies, all make-up and hair must be done before you arrive, keep it simple though as we are trying to portrait a natural form of a human being ;)

No props or sunglasses will be aloud, this is a BARE ALL. . . the only thing that you will bring into the studio will be your naked self (that includes no underwear and bra's) and a covering of your choice ( sarong, towel, gown ).

Please be there at 2.30 sharp!

Now for the last nasty's - sorry guys - This event as reiterated is for those who cannot speak and suffer, the animals, this is a pleasant exciting event and i would appreciate it if we kept it that way, any miss behaving or in appropriate behaviour will lead to instant dismissal and i will quite easily remove you with my very own bare hands or with one of my kind assisting gentlemen. We all want to feel great about this huge commitment, lets embrace it and not destroy it.

Great that's enough with the poopy bits :)

If you need to ask me anything else feel free to contact me.

I hope to see you there!

Lets make the change we want to see in others :)
