...Mini Update

Yea, so it's already been established I'm trying to get into a little modeling. My parents and now Grandmom Audrey & probably Ms. Thelma knows too. Grandmom always told me because I'm tall I should do it, now I finally am so that should be cool to her.

Anyway, I went to this audition/fitting I was invited to, and now I'm apart of the company (Axiskeys) and I'm doing my first event May 30th @ Triada (www.triadalounge.com). I'm inviting everyone I know so I'll have a little cushion to chill with in the midst of networking and mingling with the other people at the event. So far the outfits we'll be wearing sound cool. Everything I need for the event will be provided for me, (i.e.: hair & makeup, wardrobe, accessories, even shoes!). There will be a fashion show I believe and then after we just all walk around and socialize & have a good time basically all while getting things done.

This group basically serves as the middle man for models just starting and not sure where to go. We're not tied down to them, but they help book us for things and then once there we work out whatever deal with that client. One of their models is now in the Phillipines with the guy Apple from the Black Eyed Peas, so I guess they're kind of a big deal. Their main goal is to get Philly up there like NY. It's well on its way since NY is getting TOO saturated with everyone trying to be there, handle business there, etc...and alot of people who lived or work in NY are now moving to Philly because of the cost of living, space issues, and comfort, so why not make Philly the next mecca of all things as well. The nightlife scene is starting to take off in a major way, which then leads to more publicity, more people coming to visit and the expansion can continue. We're right at the start of this movement so it can become easy to just catch on to the wave and ride it to the top as long as everyone apart of it works it correctly. I'm hoping I have the confidence to pull this off and able to turn my charm on in full effect and be noticed. I have nothing to lose and everything to gain if done right so I should have no fear. What's the worse that can happen - they say no...big deal - move on to the next and do better.

Let's see how this goes...

...The Update Part Deux

Spring Fever still in full effect :)

Still running the streets like there's no tomorrow. Hanging out for days then crashing when I finally get home - it's awesome. It's slowly starting to be consistently warm now so that helps. Since it's warm, so I'm not always in the car and can fully enjoy the nice weather I reverted back to my high school ways of taking the "hoe stroll" with Tyk that we invented around the neighborhood to wherever it takes me. Usually we end up at a park, marinate for a bit then when it gets dark we'll head back to wherever I left the car. It's good exercise for someone who won't do it at all I figure - besides walking is good for everybody.

I now got a random inspiration, so now I'm going to try and pursue a little modeling over the summer and see what happens. I don't have any real photos besides the one time I did a mini shoot with Jasen, but I don't really count them - I just think of them as pretty pictures because thats all I really wanted them for. When I took those I wasn't trying to be a model, I just wanted some nice pictures that I didn't take myself to put on Myspace (lol). Yesterday I did some shooting with a photographer named Lauri Carbone who has her own company called Lalee Photography ( http://www.laleephotography.com/ ). It was really fun - she was really cool and a very nice person all around. She made me real comfortable and the whole experience was cool. We shot down South St. around the mosaic mirror garden area, and some of the people who live there also have designed garage doors which made for more scenery. Everything in that area is either painted or designed so it gave our location alot of variety. Brandi was my mentor, make up artist, pep coach, and stylist. She came with me and I'd notice her behind the photographer nodding her head, giving me the thumbs up. She told me I did a good job for my first actual shoot, so hopefully I can continue to grow and get better. The photographer said I did a great job, she said I should've tried out for Top Model and asked why I wasn't already a model *blush* I don't believe her, I'm not gonna pipe my head up like that but it was nice to know I possibly did a good job. I'll fully know how it turned out when the photos come back in a few weeks. She's going to contact me when she finishes editing them and send me the CD with the images - I can't wait to see them and I hope they look nice.

I'm even talking Tyk into getting into it and I believe she's thinking of actually doing it with me. She keeps saying she's not pretty enough to model, but I'm like you'll never know until you do it. We always say life's too short so we do whatever the fuck we want to, so why not try this too. Who knows what could happen with this whole thing- why settle for just being the pretty girl in the hood when you could be one of the pretty girls of the world. I'm just taking a chance and seeing what could happen and making her come along with me to try it as well - what's the worse that could happen?

I'll update again when the photos return. Now I'll stop typing at work and try to do some work.
