Well It's been a little while since I've written. September 9-16 was fashion week. I can proudly say I booked 7 but was in 6 shows/presentations which is pretty good for my first season. It was an amazing, stressful, and new experience. I have told my family and friends over and over again, I DO NOT advise anyone to get into modeling if they don't truly love and enjoy it. These past few weeks I have been going nonstop (with the exception of last week where I have finally gotten a break) with castings, shows and my other part time job. You have tons of people telling you how to dress, speak and be. I am not going to lie, I had a few breakdowns where I had to pull myself together and just get through whatever situation I was in. When you live in a world where most people are expecting you to fail and you are constantly competing and trying to prove yourself, it makes you wonder if it's worth it.
Well, I have thought a lot about this lately and for right now, it is worth it. I am only 19 years old and I get to live in New York City. I am going places and meeting people that other people only dream about achieving. And in the next year hopefully I will be going to Europe doing the same thing. I don't want to be one of those people that sits at home wishing I could be somewhere else. Even if I am worried about being able to pay next's month rent and food bills, it is still the experience of a life time. I am very blessed to be where I am at and I am SOO glad that when I came here I had my head on straight or I would already have my priorities mixed up. All the roomers you hear about the "modeling world" are very true.
So to get to my point about all this rambling is that going through blood sweat and tears to make it in this industry IS in fact worth it to me because I am going to prove to all of those people waiting for me to fail or screw my life up that not only am I going to make it in this industry, but I am going to do it with my pride and dignity intact remaining a "good girl" because folks, its possible, and like I said, I HAVE proved this to be true and will continue to prove this.
Anyway, here are some pics from shows, hope you enjoy them :)
This was my most recent shoot that I did Thursday....I'm not a bad girl, but I'm a pretty good actress
