projet runway dedication



pretty pathetic that this 'blog' is turning into a shitty synopsis of project runway canada BUT i felt the necessity to update considering last night's episode kinda made my last post about it look illegit.

RECENTLY, ON PROJECT RUNWAY CANADA.
hamiltonian jason and shitty bitchface genevieve returned to fight their way back into the competition where they allowed them to do or die in the 'gimme shelter' teams of two battle. the deal was that they couldn't just come in second, they had to win the episode in order to stay on the show. the judges made first place a two way tie, crowning FOUR fucking people as the victors (sunny, jessica, jason and *cringe* genevieve) forcing adejoke and *cringe* kim off the show.


long story short, hamilton's still got a shot!

PRC spoiler alert!


Last night as I watched Project Runway Canada with my sister, I cried and cried and cried...
Not just because I have my period. 
And not just because the episode focused on women who have survived breast cancer (except one woman who apparently lost her battle after the episode finished filming), but also because our dear contestant JASON MEYERS, who hailed from our great city of Hamilton bit the dust on last night's episode. (Deservedly so, since his dress was hideous)
but still!
HIS BIO:
Jason Meyers, 31
"I'm hungry for victory. I want to show the nation what my brand is all about."

Steeltown boy Jason Meyers wants women to feel happy, comfortable and stylish in his designs. "I also try to be innovative yet timeless," adds the designer from Hamilton, Ont. After studying at the International Academy of Design & Technology in Toronto, he launched his eponymous line in 2006. Jason believes his designs get better with age, but will this be his vintage year?


NOPE!

Project Runway for the blind

I'm a pretty lucky girl to have PVR (personal video recorder), pretty much meaning I never have to miss my favourite shows ever again.  There are, however, a couple downfalls to pvr.  For example, last night during the oscars, we started watching it about an hour in so that we were able to fast forward the commercials.  This was a problem when we reached the end of the recording because the awards went into overtime, as they usually do, and we missed the end.  Another downfall to pvr is accidentally taping a program in dv (descriptive video).  It's a great device for those who need it, but for those who are not visually impaired, it gets a little redundant. 

HOWEVER, recently when I went to watch the most recent episode of project runway canada, i soon realized that i had taped it in Dv.  I didn't mind because I was "watching" it while on the computer, allowing me to do both.  But during the opening credits, I started to pee myself because this is where the descriptive video became insanely personal and insulting.  I couldn't find the dv version on the internet so i'm going to type out the script of how the narrator describes the contestants.
please start the video at 0:55.
