Days Worth Remembering

Hello again, World!

Yes,. it's been a while. But it's only natural of me to write a delayed post, right? I wouldn't want to disappoint your expectations!

Aside from the job picking up and being incredibly busy, I've certainly experienced some exciting things the past few months--the past few weeks, rather! In early August I was scouted for hair modeling, in a two-part process. This month, because I FINALLY got a phone, I was able to arrange an appointment and get my hair cut. It's so much shorter now! Definitely a shock, but I'm getting used to it :)

Here's a picture of the before and after:


Tomorrow I'll go back for the color. I have nooo idea what the stylist has in mind, but I'm excited all the same~ I've also got some even MORE exciting news!!! I FINALLY AM ON TRACK TO FULFILL MY SECRET DREAM! For years I've had a private ambition to model in Japan. I love modeling, even though I know I have so many areas to improve. I only ever told a few people because there was something about it that just seemed so far-fetched for me. I'm not tall, I'm "normal-people-thin" but certainly not model-thin. I love fashion and everything that goes along with it, but I've never been exceptionally good at any aspect of it. I try to improve all the time, but sometimes it just seems too out of my reach. But. BUT. Last week on my break, a local photographer asked me to model for him. I wasn't particularly impressed with myself upon receiving copies of the shots, but wrote about my excitement at the chance on anyway. My LINE friend, who is also a scout, SAW this silly post and immediately arranged an interview for me at a local modeling and talent agency! As of Monday, I'll have an official profile made and photoshoot done! I know it's not really a big deal, considering how easy it is for visa-holding foreigners to get modeling jobs here, but to me it's the most exciting thing that could happen. Even if it is just a side job, even if nothing big ever comes from it, I'm still taking the baby steps towards a bigger picture all the same. It's overwhelming!! I guess, even if you think it's impossible, it's always worth it to keep chasing what you want, right? Do any of you have a secret dream you're working towards~?? :)
