Officially, this is observed by the United Nations; technically all of the 193 members observe it even if it's not a tradition in many of them. The day was first proposed on July 20, 1958, but it was not officially declared until April 27, 2011, almost 53 years after its first proposal.  Today, take a moment to appreciate all of your friends or celebrate the friendships that you have, if possible, there doesn't need to be a party, you can celebrate it many ways and ALWAYS remember this: 


On this day in 1997, a man named Joey Henderson, having written the script on the 28th and presented it on that day; along with fellow co-worker and friend Tom Miranda, were at AVB Studios in L.A. organising the auditions for one of the brand new AVB shows: Real Friends. The day before, they'd been busy deciding on how many people they should try out for each of the main characters, with the show having been picked up the day before. At 15:00 of that day, it was decided that 5 people would be the number.
At 8:00 A.M., the audition began. At that exact hour, a man named Logan Reed came in and announced his intention to audition for the role of Luke Wilson, two minutes later, two men named Yanni Morahan and Xavier Langdon came in and expressed their intentions for the role, at 8:05 a guy named Kevin Marlowe came in and did the same thing as the aforementioned men and finally at 8:07, a bald guy known as Brian Ray came in and did the exact same thing. Joey read the line: "Hey Ryan, how's the company been doing so far? and explained to them that they had to say it in a normal serious tone, whoever impressed Joey and Tom the most would get the role. 
When the auditions for Luke finished at 8:30, the auditions for Christie Daniels began, five women were selected, namely: Brooke Anderson, Maurine Jensen, Evelyn Daalman, Mandy Morrison and Belinda Gabler. The auditions ended at 8:55.
At 9:30 the auditions for Ryan Johnson, who would speak the first line of the show, began. The men selected were: Alan Blake, Connor Dallmann, John Raymond, Evan Hanley and Vince Saylor. The line, considered one the most memorable first lines spoken in a TV Show ever, is the following:
"Hello there, I'm Ryan. You've probably at one point wondered about how true friendships work, well, throughout the thing that me and my friends do, you're gonna understand how true friendships work, this is what you came to see, how to be a real friend and how to get one or more. I hope that through what you see, you'll be able to understand many things, and I can assure you that some things were not as bad or difficult as they seemed to be. I promise you that this will undoubtedly be one your best experiences ever"-Ryan Johnson.
At 10:30 those auditioned finished, and at 11:00 started the auditions for Jessie Gomez, one of two main characters not to have a surname in English, The women selected were: Joelle Campbell, Natalie Earl, Alison Stevens, Holly Manners and Nicole Sackville.
Following lunch break, at 13:00 they were back to work with the auditions for Kevin Eriksson, the men selected were: Marvin Mendez, Elon Rimmer, Manuel Giraldi, Bob Carlyle and Sid Dominguez. At 13:30, the auditions for Jo Carlson started, the women selected were: Elena Tortelli, Rose Thompson, Simone Williams, Christine Xylander and Efa Zahariev. 
At 14:00, the auditions for Charlie Carrey (the character is NOT related to Jim Carrey) commenced, the men selected were: Liam Howard, Stephen Konrad, Louis Patton, Zeke Dabney and Eric Rowland. And at 14:30 started the auditions for the last of the main characters to be created: Kim Bush. The women selected were: Janelle Garcon, Grace Naldi, Ann Lee, Louise Baaiman and Christina Quirk.
Between 16:00 and 17:30, Joey called every single one of the agents of the actors and actresses selected in the order of the characters. The chosen ones were:
Luke: Brian Ray
Christie: Mandy Morrison
Ryan: John Raymond
Jessie: Alison Stevens
Kevin: Marvin Mendez
Jo: Rose Thompson
Charlie: Zeke Dabney 
and Kim: Ann Lee.
Independently, each of the actors, came between 18:00 and 19:30 to thank Henderson for having chosen them.
But, would the eight of them be together to film the entire series? 
Find out tomorrow when the continuation comes out.
Sincerely,
Augusto.
