Movember

This is a link to an article to the blog of Jess Tang, in Section 102.

Three weeks ago, one of my Austrian friends asked me: “hey man, let’s grow our moustach for Movember?”. It was duriing a party, in Fairview and I thought: “God, alcohol is killing me right now, I don’t understand a word of what Tomas is saying”. I replied: “Oh yeah, hahaha, let’s do that, it’s gonna be so much fun! Movember…haha…”. I finally decided to keep partying and forgot this weird talking.

But today, I regret it. If someone had told me what Movember is, I would have grown the biggest moustache ever. Because, yes, my hair system is very, very…very developed! So when, you guys, try to grow your moustache one year before the month of November to get the chance to actually have a moustache, I just have not to shave for…one week and here I am:

Like Jess, I’am amazed that such a weird trend has been followed by so many people, especially here in Canda. Actually, some of my friends who are in Exchange in Montreal told me about how crazy it was! This is quite funny because, during some events, I used, with friends, to grow my moustache. It occured several time during the annual gathering between the Schools like mine (Sciences Po). During this event, every school compete through sports championships and hard parties! To appear like the strongest man on the field, a lot of guys grow their moustache weeks before.

Moustache seems definitely to be an attribute of manlyness, since hairs are supposed to be! This Movember campain against a form of cancer that actually challenges this manlyness is brilliant. It helps people realize that a man is always a man (wow, sounds good!haha).

I hope Movember will develop more and more in the next years.
