Today was the first day I was needed on set, I was sat in the corner of the styling room, a lovely lady smiling as she perfected my hair and make up for the character I was playing
T:So are you excited? Tanya spoke, the curling tong in her palm as she sectioned off the strands of my hair K:Yeah, a little nervous though I chuckled lightly as our attention went to the opening of the door, Zendaya and Clara peered through it smiling widely before waving in my direction
T:Morning girls, your stylists should be here in a second there just preparing the equipment C:Oh yeah that's fine, is it okay to take a seat? She pointed to the chairs in front of the mirrors beside me T:Yeah of course!
They smiled sitting down in their separate sections, adjusting their bodies trying to get comfortable as Clara released her pony tail Z:We missed you yesterday where were you? K:Oh I hung out with some friends who live here, sorry I couldn't make it
I smiled lightly, since our first meeting I had spent everyday with the cast knowing that tony advised us to, we have all bonded really well and I couldn't of asked for a better bunch of people to work with
Z:Ah right, don't worry Tom couldn't make it either I think he ditched us for Harrison I laughed as the stylists entered the room, they greeted Z and Clara discussing the look they were going for with their characters
1 hour later*
T:Alright that's you done I smiled widely as she covered my hair in hairspray, stroking the last flick of the soft bristles on my cheek
I looked over at Zendaya and Clara as they leaned against the door Z:You look amazing C:You really do! I smiled widely pulling them both in for a quick hug
T:Right girls pop outside for us a second and someone should be out there to take you to the set for today We nodded all thanking our separate stylists before disappearing through the doors
Z:Now we wait I laughed at how impatient the three of us were, our eyes all focused to the corridor in front of us as we caught a glimpse of Daniel rushing in our direction, clearly loosing his breath D:Right girls, you ready We nodded quickly, following him as he leaded us to the black limo we were driving in
Our first few weeks on set are all filmed in a high school up town, I was really excited because it reminded me of being back in school, the only disadvantage being that we were in LA and filming in an American high school, which I had no experience in what so ever!
About 20 minutes past before we pulled up outside the building, cameras and crowds of people already surrounded the set as we jumped out of the vehicle, the three of us squished closely together as Daniel called for the people to make some room for us so we could get through
We reached our set, I stood in shock of it as tony approached us immediately T:You all look great! Are you excited? K:Excited but more nervous
I knew that I would be the most anxious out of us all because this was my first big movie and character, and I knew that Zendaya and Clara had been doing this for years! T:Don't worry you'll be fine, we're going to do a few run-overs of the script before we start the takes He passed us the scripts for this scene that we had all pretty much memorised over this past week
Me and Clara were pointed in the direction of the corner of the room, we were playing best friends in this movie which wouldn't be hard knowing that the two of us got on really well C:I wonder where tom is I haven't seen him yet? I shrugged my shoulders as everyone surrounded the area, stylists and other people shuffling us in place as I watched this dream I had imagined for years, become a reality
About half an hour had past until tony felt like we were already to start shooting, I nodded as he stood by the main camera holding out his hand to gesture us when the camera started rolling
T/D:And 3, 2, 1
I heard the clicking of the camera swallowing hardly as I saw it focus on tom as he appeared around the corner of the set, everyone was flickering their eyes over to him as he opened his locker, spoke a few of his lines before closing it hardly, this was my cue

I breathed out nervously, shaking into my character of Liz...
E:So are you gonna talk to him? Liz traced over her eyes to peter, he looked oblivious to what was happening, she sighed as the bell rung loudly E:Let me know how it goes She smiled lightly before drifting off to her class Liz slowly walked up to where peter was standing, her hand leaning against the locker beside his, he smiled closing it suddenly...
L:So what's your excuse this time? P:Excuse for what? Liz shook her head at peter, they had been together for about a year now and she still felt like she hardly new anything about him, on their schedules for dates and things he would always bail or make up some silly excuse to get out of it, and it really came off as the impression that he wasn't interested anymore
L:For not turning up!? Peter we had a date planned for yesterday P:Oh Jeez yeah! I'm so sorry She rolled my eyes as the started to walk down the school corridors
L:You say that a lot P:I know... He paused slowly P:Let me make it up to you Liz shrugged drifting off in their conversation before he locked her into his words, turning her head to face his P:Liz, please...
She hesitated slightly L:Okay fine He smiled nodding suddenly P:You won't regret this! He shouted from a distance before disappearing into his science class
T/D: And...cut! I jumped from my position at the sudden sound, everyone giving us light claps as i felt multiple arms wrap around my shoulders
C:See what were you worrying about? That was great! I smiled widely as tom entered mine and Carla's conversation, pulling me in for a friendly hug T:You were fantastic! K:Me? What about you! He smirked slightly as him and Carla drifted off into their own conversation, I looked up at zendaya as she adjusted her outfit for the next scene
K:How was I? Z:Girl you smashed it! I laughed as she snapped her fingers, the heavy American accent escaping her lips as she applied another layer of lip gloss
K:How much more lip gloss does a girl need on her lips? Z:When your Michelle, a lot apparently
I laughed as she was dragged away by some of the team, I breathed out heavily smiling at the atmosphere I was currently in, these next few months were going to be amazing...
