“You are so beautiful, it must be disheartening to not hear from the agencies.”

Yes, It can be really difficult. Especially on days when I remember that to be successful in this industry I need a good agency. It is mostly frustrating because I am so passionate about it, and I usually feel helpless.

I am glad I am a student and work at ModCloth.com, they are good distractions. Otherwise I might go crazy from just sitting around waiting for something to happen.

At the same time I wonder if I wasn’t in school or working, would I do better putting 100% into modeling. But my recent trip to NYC humbled me a little more than I expected, more discouraged than humbled I suppose.

But to be honest, if I gave up now I wouldn’t be happy. I have never before been so passionate about something. I usually go through phases with different hobbies and such, but I have been modeling for 2 years, and I haven’t gotten sick of it yet!

What’s in store now? Who knows, but my article on ModCloth seems to be getting a lot of responses! Also, I am taking a dive into freelance modeling to see where that gets me. Maybe someday I will write a book about this whole struggle… Who knows what is in store for me, and for all of you! Our futures are so bright!

I totally went off on a rant sorry about that Cheech! ;) But the answer is yes, it is. But it is worth it, and hopefully will be in the end.

<3 Happy Friday Everyone!

P.S. WELCOME New Followers!!! :D So, nice to have you here!

P.S.S. Thanks for the comment Cheechitbaby!

Haha just got out of the shower&#8230;. That&#8217;s the boyfriend reading his kindle behind me, he had no idea I took this picture so shhhhh don&#8217;t tell!! :D Today was a pretty good day&#8230; I MIGHT have found myself a little modeling gig!! I will let you know when it actually happens, its in CALI!! So, currently I decided that I am going to have to do a lot of my modeling stuff without an agency&#8230;. Who needs them anyways right?!? Haha But, yea I locked my keys in my car tonight, and my boyfriend came to save me!! So he is sleeping over! Yay, I cannot wait to cuddle. I am going to now!!! Welcome new followers! It is so great to see some new names. :) I got a question here: starryfeet answered your question: curvycouture: Hello people from FYCG!!!! It is&#8230; Question: you work for modcloth.com, how do the clothes fit you? I’ve been wanting to shop but am afraid due to sizing questions. returns bad My Answer: Measure yourself! Read how they measure things and you will be golden, that is how I figure out if things are going to fit me. DO NOT TRUST S, M, or L (every vendor ModCloth has available is different)!! So just read the measurements + lengths, and good luck! Let me know if you have any more questions!! Mandy(at)thecurvymodel(dot)com!!
