Well, my support worker will be going on annual leave next month, and there's some extras work coming up soon for two movies, one of which is reportedly going to be the biggest movie in Edinburgh to date. The other is an indie film. The agency may have someone else who can help me while he's off enjoying his holiday.

I'm very excited about it, but I'm finding the apparent stalling tactics of my sister to be unnecessarily stressful. Also, I must say that I'm getting awfully sick of nagging my sister to get her profile sorted out on Universal Extras, which I'm paying for. When I gave her £25 before (and it's really £30 to join), some money came out of her bank for something else, so I gave her another £25 which meant I did myself out of money a bit. She had to move out of her flat, and so my house looks like a wasteland.

The agency for extras is real. They need two photos, and filming for this major movie is happening very soon. They said it can take the better part of a week to get an account fully activated. Once the pictures get approved, you have to pay a membership fee by phone if you cannot prove you study full-time. One photo has to be a face and shoulders type one. The other is your full body. They only approved one, but it's a cluttered environment, so what can we do about it?

The house I live in is an absolute mess. They didn't approve one of the last photos we took because of the lighting, but what can I do about that? Apart from that, she says she isn't able to be outdoors for too long because the cold air affects her health, and the filming is going to be outdoors. There's nobody else who can go with me, and I don't like crowded places. But she really ought to have got a move on weeks ago. You know? It just causes a lot of commotion.
