Anyway, as you might have guessed from my blog title, I have some pretty big news from my Valentine's Day! Check out the videos to see for yourself what that big news is!
Happy Valentine's Day!!!! ;)
In case you needed a little clarification - I'm not actually engaged. That guy isn't my boyfriend or fiancee or anything like that - we are acting partners. This idea originated about a month ago when he and I were getting sushi and the staff clearly thought we were on a date. We decided to commit to our roles (we both enjoy acting) and sell our love, and then half way through the meal I whispered - "Let's pretend to break up!" Through body language and other subtle things, we definitely conveyed that the date had gone south and fast.
A week or so before the big V-Day, I texted my friend and asked if he had plans for the 14th. He did not, so I said - "Let's get engaged." It seemed like a great idea at the time!
On the big day we planned out three locations at a 45-minute strategy session, created elaborate background stories for each location and mapped out details. You may notice in the videos that we (unfortunately) have to kiss - neither one of us can say we enjoyed any of those and it made the experience slightly less fun. A word of advice: if you're strictly friends with someone, kissing them is seriously a terrible experience. We had to really commit to the roles.
Thank you again to all of the people who sent us videos, we appreciate you all and hope that if you ever find out what you witnessed was staged that you have a great sense of humor and still believe in love.
Happy Faux-Valentine's Day!
