Sorry it took me so long to answer this one, I saw the question at a time when I wasn’t able to respond and then kind forgot about it. Sorry.
My type of girl… a lot depends on personality but I like energetic and outgoing girls who are a bit femme-ier than me and who I can talk sci-fi with. I typically like girls who are no more than two inches taller than me and usually have brown eyes and are not too skinny. I really am into the girl-next-door kinda chick.
Hi, I’m sorry, I speak very little French, so this is what I can read by myself ” Hello, do you speak French? It will be a lot easier. Or I suppose you can use use something. I suggest that you and other homosexual students something together that gays run the GSA not the students who pretend they care. Lovely blog (I am the anon from before)
Firstly, Thank you. And that is a good idea. Our school actually has two out teachers and I believe that one of them is involved in the GSA but not running it. Your idea is great but I am not going to do it for very selfish reasons. I don’t want to spend my time on student council when I know that student council wont listen to me and I don’t want to be in charge of something that I think will inevitably fail. I recognize that this is a bad reason because if I try hard I can make it not fail. I guess I mostly dont want to be a part of the GSA because I don’t want to be labelled as the gay girl. I will think about this a bit and talk to the other out student and to the teacher maybe. Thanks!
Remember that GSA I wrote about a few posts ago, well my sister is on student council and she had to make posters for the upcoming casual day. She showed me the poster to get my opinion and the poster said that the money raised from casual day will be going to breast cancer and then the poster had a HUGE FUCKING PRIDE FLAG and said “wear purple in support of gay pride”. What the fuck?! Wearing purple does not support gay pride. My school seems to think that simply saying we like gay people is the same as being a safe, supportive environment. The same way that not punishing the boys who bullied me does not show support nor does simply wearing purple. It is lying to say that the school supports gay pride when they have done shit all.
Hi, sorry I haven’t posted anything in a while-I’ve been so busy. Last weekend I went on a Jewish leadership retreat at the lake and had a great time because the weather was so nice and I was with my friends. On Monday I had friends over for a bonfire and hangout sesh which was fun but as soon as I got the fire started a huge storm also started. Oh well. Tuesday was my birthday and the convocation for grade twelve, the ceremony took about seven years and I fell asleep during it, I bet that next year, when I’m in grade 12, it will be even more boring. Wednesday was the grad dinner-dance and i was a great night. I have a long ass rant about Ava for soon. THurdsay was the Final Ball for my BBYO region but I left early because I was so exhausted from the previous few days. Then Friday morning I went to Ottawa for a family event, I got to see my friend Mina yesterday. She took me on a little tour of Ottawa and I had a great time!

why not, you may be asking. I have many reasons for why I feel this way. My school is very small, from grade 7-12 there are only 200 students, when I came out I was bullied by two kids and accepted by everyone else, and now I am accepted by everybody, I am just Yona, not the lesbian or anything. By starting a GSA in such a small school I feel that it will highlight who the gay students are. Also there is one grade in my school (grade eight) where everyone in that grade loves to volunteer for things, do no work whatsoever and then say how great they are because they volunteer. They do this for every school volunteer day and every school event. I do not want being nice to gay people to be something that these kids say they are good people for, and these kids are so fucking annoying. As the only out kid at my school I will feel obliged to be a part of this GSA and then spend time with the annoying ass grade eights (but this is just my selfishness showing through, not a reason why I don’t support the GSA). And finally, the GSA came into the talks with the administration after the incidents of my bullying were reported. THIS IS NOT HOW YOU SOLVE THE PROBLEM!!!!!!!! Instead of punishing the kid who bullied me they make a club, really? How is that the proper response. The kids who bullied me got no punishment whatsoever, their parents were not notifies they have no record of this bullying. Yes it stopped but the administration did not respond correctly and trying to make a GSA rather than tackling the actual bullying is not the right response.
So that’s exciting I guess. Also I feel like I haven’t posted a lot lately. sorry, things had gotten pretty busy for a while. I will do better, I promise.
