Last night I put the finishing touches on my presentation for the Fat Studies Conference! I scanned a bunch of photos and this was one of my favourites – I got very sunburnt on year 12 camp and one of my friends put a spider in my lap when she came across the photo in my senior year scrapbook. It’s kind of how I feel right now: totally freaking out! I’m speaking on Saturday and Nick will be taking a video of my presentation so you won’t miss out on my awkward oratory skills. I’m much more comfortable writing – I guess that’s why I’m a blogger! I’ll also be posting my paper here, I’m hoping I don’t get so nervous that I completely stray from it in my presentation.
What I am looking forward to is meeting a bunch of rad people!!! I envision a lot of fun and bonding, I’m so optimistic about our little fat acceptance movement in Australia.
You look just like Bertie Page (the Brisbane burlesque performer, not her namesake)!
Wow, those buses still have the same seat covers these days!
haha, love the photos!! :D
