I've been sick this past week

but I'm recovering with the help of the tea, remedies, and the rain, making it easier for me to fall asleep in the middle of the day. I'm also reading that book that one of my contact recommended. It's turning out to be really helpful.

remember

something great will happen today :)

break

So I took a break from my job hunt from last Thursday until this past Tuesday to visit my lovelies at my old school (almost overstayed my visit haha).  I had a great time as always, went to games, a party, step show, Roscoe's, watched the grammy's...it was all good (except for sleeping on the floor haha) and until Valentine's Day but my friends made it better :) Although, I do think a caught a little bug because when I woke up Tuesday, my throat felt really weird and now my nose is stopped up, great. I don't take medicine but I will pop a Halls as quickly as possible. Speaking of health, I'm trying to become better at that so I think I'm either going to cut bread out of my daily consumption or just become a pescatarian (only eating fish for meat). I haven't actually figured out which one yet (you can't expect me to do both! haha BABY STEPS!) I'm sure I'll come to a decision soon.

Luckily, an acquaintance of mine who has a fashion internship hooked me up with a website to help find something. I believe none of them are paid but if I'm able to do that, gain experience, and still look for a paying job, it's like killing two birds with one stone.

I'm trying to go back to LA next wednesday to see Brandon Hines (beautiful voice, look him up) so hopefully I'll be able to.

here are some pictures :)

another great thing

Got an interview call back for tomorrow! *crosses fingers*

+ player
+ Richard Gere is a very handsome man.
+ I had too much chili
+ I found a very beautiful girl on facebook who's a model and she had this buzz haircut that showcased her face and it was amazing. I always wonder if I could pull that off....

until next time :)

wow

So it's 2:18am and something ALREADY great has happened :D :D we're back on track people :) At first I felt like an idiot, embarassed, almost regretted my decision. But now I'm better :) tee hee

Also around 8:48 on sunday, I received a call that lasted for about an hour with a former stylist who helped open my eyes to the pros and cons (mostly cons) about being a stylist. Even though this may have turned most people off, because I like being realistic I appreciated her candidness and honesty that she provided. She gave me her contact information saying that if I had any more questions to go ahead and ask. She also gave me a little bit of homework to do and that's to read a book that will assist in making sure that I explore all of my options to different opportunities. I'll be sure to pick it up as soon as possible. Hopefully Thursday.

• I really want to learn french and go back to paris
• I want to go to nyfw to further educate myself. If only I had a plane ticket for feb. 12 (alexander wang's show @ 5pm). I won't even start on the lineup for feb. 16 urgh next year? *crosses fingers*
• I want to visit London and BAD I just won't be looking forward to the dreary weather they're known for having *sigh*
• I believe it's important to have confidence, a high self-esteem, and being comfortable in your own skin so if someone wants to take pictures of themselves everyday, then so be it. Now, not every one has to be posted on Facebook but that's just a personal outlook. So click away! 

:)

greatness

I just got back from LA. I actually drove in LA traffic for the first time. gosh it's tiring but I got me and my fam home safe and sound :) We spent longer than expected there, it was only supposed to be Wednesday and Thursday but when opportunities present themselves you just have to  know when to grab them (that's all the time). The job fair didn't really have any employers that stuck out or that were willing to hire BUT something great did happen! The wardrobe stylist did contact me back and hopefully I'll have some opportunities coming my way. :)

*cross fingers*

schmoozing

so I schmoozed. haha I don't really know if I made that term up but I'm pretty sure I've heard someone use it before. My understanding of it is to mingle and interact with a lot of people. But hey, that's just me. Last night was cool to meet different people. They were all so nice! I feel like I was introduced to about 20 people and surprisingly four times people told me I looked familiar to them."Were you at the last party?" or "Were you one of those people that went on the cruise?" Interesante.

Currently: going to a job fair. *crosses fingers*

I'm starting to repeat to myself everyday: "Today, something great will happen!" and everyday something manifests. Let's hope it continues.

LET THE BRANDING BEGIN!

first friday

Going out tonight! Cute little shindig up North, I believe. I can't really tell you whose party just yet, but I'll report back to my fellow readers. Hopefully I can get a job opportunity out of this. 

oh! This morning I got a call from my mum and she said a friend of hers told a wardrobe stylist my story and that I'm trying to get into the industry and from what I gathered, it sounded like the woman was interest! Even though I didn't sound too excited at 8:30 in the morning, when it finally hit me I was ecstatic. So I received her contact information and reached out to her. Hopefully I get a response back

 *crosses fingers*

por que no las dos??

back?

I feel like I totally abandoned this blog (which I did) and I first I wasn't worried about it but I feel sort of bad now =/ Don't get me wrong I still love tumblr haha but I still feel as if this is my little safe haven. Tumblr's getting too popular which means people I know can read what I'm writing and I haven't decided if that's such a good or bad thing. I have a lot of updates since the last time I posted but I don't want to bore any of you. Just stay tuned to more to come!

Oh, and this picture was the day I was really vain and self-absorbed haha I took so many pictures but this was one of my favorites. I was all dolled up because of my interview I had that day so I wanted to look the part. I thought I did pretty well :)
