So, I promised you a better picture of my black hairs. This is as good as its going to get!
I have a photo shoot in a half an hour, I am so not awake yet. I need to figure out what I am going to do with my hair, and clothes. Ah!
Then I leave for Harrisburg to sleep over at a fellow models house, then we are off to NYC the next day! I will not have my laptop on me, so the best way to find out how I am doing is my twitter (via my cellular). I will be tweeting as I run around NYC, I would love it if you followed me. :)
Have a great day today and tomorrow! In spirit you will all be with me. :} I am going to blow these agencies out of the water ;)

Not sure if I have posted about my purple dress at all on this blog? Well here it is, this is one of the only dresses I have ever made. I love it, I know that the seam came un-done on my shoulder, but I am going to fix it up and wear it out again.

I love this dress, its so figure flattering. Also, I have been very inspired to make more clothes! Once I move into my new place and start working at ModCloth (so much inspiration from there) again I think I will start making more dresses, and I am excited to shoot in them!! :D YAY, making clothes makes me so happy and giddy.

What makes you happy and giddy (try to stick to hobbies lol)?

Ehhh, ok

I have the hardest time saying no to people. I don’t know why, I feel like I hurt their feelings and I cannot stand that. I have no idea why I care so much.

Anyways- the story is, this older guy who is in the photo society with me asked me to model for him… His port isn’t all that great, but when I know someone I will shoot with them because I am nice. Surprisingly the photos (typically) turn out very well, so I am happy, they are happy, and I don’t have to avoid them while walking around school. lol

BUT he wants to take me on a full day trip. Tomorrow. I said yes, even though I am skipping class. No way right? haha OK, so I don’t know him too well which is why I am so uncomfortable. Good news is I am bringing two of my friends. Bad news is they will be dropped off into a small town on the way to explore (Killarney). So, if I am not back tomorrow night then I might be dead. haha JK, but really.

ALSO- he is really into implied nudity… Not so much my thing, especially not with an amature photographer. A lot of people make fun of me for that reason, but you know what? He is just a guy with a camera, still a guy, still learning. But, if it were for Vogue, fuck yess I would bare it all. :)

Wish me luck.

Love you all!

P.S. A lot of the photos will be on the beach (the cold cold cold beach)! I have been dying to get some beach shots, I brought my ModCloth vintage bathingsuit and so this will be fun. Hopefully I look hot! :)

Oh jeez…

I have been trying to work with this designer for like a year… and today is the big Photoshoot with amazing Designer/makeup artist/photographer

Thank GOD it is with photographer Dawn Derbyshire, because I have worked with her so many times and will hopefully feel confident with her behind the camera…. It is just tough when you want to impress someone, and sometimes you can freeze up, or forget what your doing (poses).

I need some serious luck or praise, words of wisdom?
