I want to get into historical reenactments for a summer job… Haven't found any yet.

If you live close to Fishers, IN, USA, Conner Prairie is a history-themed, living, outdoors museum. There are historical settlements and you make a historically accurate costume (or have someone else make it) and basically arrive for work everyday pretending to live in the houses or doing work or something - my character, Agnes Rothentrop, is an orphan who works at an Inn. Or you can work in uniform and do third-person interpreting. It's pretty fun.
But I've always wanted to do something like a Renaissance Fair.

That would be really fun. I'm just a big fan of acting, and old fashioned costumes.

Me as well, I assisted in making my 1836 dress and I recently bought a civil-war era dress for that area of the museum.

(yeets in)
did I hear Connor's Prairie?

(loll)
Conner Prairie, in Fishers, IN, USA

INDIANA BOIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIS
We have corn

In Ohio we have…..
drunks and bad weather. and fields

ARE YOU CHALLENGING A HOOSIER TO WEATHER
PLEASE
IN ORDER:
Monday: Sunny and warm.
Tuesday: The power goes out due to intense wind and rain.
Wednesday: Excessively foggy. Cannot see a single thing. Comes close to snowing.
Thursday: Sunny again, very warm
Friday: Thunderclouds, and cold, but no storm
Saturday: Clear sky with drizzles and chilly breezes.
Sunday: idk but it'll probably either snow or drought

That's what it's like in Ohio too tbh

I mean who are we kidding its the midwest

Even our weather is a drunk that can't do anything right just like most of the people

correct

I'm just waiting for the next storm.

This is why hand warmers and electric blankets exist

I mean, since I'm used to wearing either
a) t-shirt and short shorts with no socks or
b) a cotton dress with a petticoat for conner prairie so basically sweatpants and sweatshirt
there's no inbetween so I go out in either one and am absolutely fine either way

My weather is bipolar as well (Canada)

Same with Michigan.

Can we all agree that weather sucks?

Yes

mhm.
mhm.
LOUDER FOR THE PEOPLE IN THE BACK.

Weather does suck

People constantly assuming that you're too young. I'm told frequently I look three years younger than I am, and it's taken a long time for some people to realize I'm old enough to do independent things.
Trying to fit into the social norm and be like everyone else.

lol people always assume I'm older than I actually am
this is a little different bc it's not appearance-related but anyway I posted a question on tumblr asking people how old they think I am and someone said something like "between 17 and 23, I'd say maybe a solid 19" and
I'm 13

I have no idea how old people think I am
