Day 22

What a day!
Wore the green shirt to class.
Wore the grey shirt to the gym.
.......Wore the black shirt to a formal interview (for OE). I would say that dressing for today's interview has been the biggest challenge for me. I felt half insane for doing so at the time.. In an interview, a lot of what one wears often creates a sense of their character - and yet for one year, I've challenged myself to wearing clothing which drives me to define myself in a way other than through clothing. I suppose this really drove me to the core of this challenge. Why does clothing mean so much to us? We're technically the only living things in the animal kingdom to wear things!! To be honest, initially, I felt as if I were wearing this huge placard on my chest.

It turned out to be a positive experience, I found that a lot of the people involved could relate to it, and it turned out to be a point of conversation that I could talk about. In retrospect, I'm glad that I chose to do so - I feel as if somehow I've learnt something from it.

 Also, all the support from people still continues to overwhelm me. Natalia - thank you for donating towards the cause!
