The VIRTUAL #YouthTruth2020 event... (July 9-10, 2020)

By
So, as you MIGHT remember from 2018, Youth Truth is a foster care show that takes place about foster kids telling their often sad and depressing foster care stories thayt come from our local program for foster care youths called #HEROES, where teens and young adults can join the program, learn skills, and travel to different places, both for fun and for learning. I have wanted to join the program for AWHILE, but I WILL in 2021 when it is possible to do so. So anyways, back in 2017-2019, they did the show in an auditorium, last time I went in 2017, it was done in a high school auditorium. It was SAD, but a good show to watch! So now, of course, with #covid19 and the #coronavirus, shows like that that are performed in a public audience in an auditorium are now no longer possible, so for the 2020 show, it was done through #FacebookLive. Over 50 people were in at one point in the show, and it was pretty cool. By the way, here is the filming and airing of Youth Truth 2020: Resilience:

Before we get to the 2020 show, you might recognize this if you are a longtime fan of my former show, My High School Years, which I named this blog after.

Here is the practice for the 2018 show:
(Filmed April 24, 2018, seen in Season 0, Episode 1 of My High School Years)


You probably recognize this from the first episode of My High School Years (April 27. 2018)

Now, to the 2020 show:





The filming/preparing for Youth Truth 2020: Resilience.




Even with COVID-19, the show still goes on! Here was the beginning of Youth Truth 2020: Resilience, filmed from Facebook Live on a mobile device. It stated that production for the show began in January, pre COVID, and then everything had to be taken online in March because of COVID-19, but production continued virtually and in July, the show happened!



P.S. Pizza night 2 nights in a row! First, on July 9, frozen pepperoni pizza for dinner, and then Domino's GF sausage pizza with a Sprite on July 10!
It was very good!

Happy June! Aren't you glad that school is almost over? (or already is if you are in college) My last day of school is June 24th! Summer is just around the corner! I'm very sorry I haven't posted lately, and that's just because it takes a lot of time to do a blog post, and I haven't had much time lately. But I want to start June on a nice note and start blog posting again! So, here's what I did yesterday, May 31 2019: I went to Chuck E Cheese! I have not been there since Dec 12 2015! (my 12th birthday) We went to support Mom's school that she works at, and I had a semi-good time. Unfortunately, the arcade was not the best time, but also not the worst. It's just because the jackpots were very low, and the arcade only had like 20 games, and the fact that most were kid-themed games. (like Paw Patrol) I had a good time on some of the games, but like I said, the jackpots were very low (but that's only because little kids can't comprehend big jackpo...

My High School Years: Episode II (9/14/18)

This is SEASON 1 EPISODE 2. Summary: I went to a tag sale and found a 2000s relic: A 1GB MEMORY CARD! I also went with Dad to Holyoke Mall to eat, and I also went to Holyoke Mall to get Melanie's new phone! Believe it or not, this was the last week that they sold the iPhone X; see my post about that  here . I also went to River Valley Market, and that was fun. I went to the YMCA to pick up Melanie. I went to the dentist, which was a quick 10 minutes and EASY. I also went to Kisara. Seen this episode? Check out  S1 E3 ! Updated 2/18/19.
