Lol, yesterday evening (meaning on the 21st of January), i accompanied Coco to this modeling agency place where the law pageant contestants were to learn how to do the catwalk properly and pose nicely and stuff.
I was standing outside the studio waiting for her reply to my sms, when i noticed the old makeup artist man, the female receptionist and this male model looking at me from inside the studio, smiling and talking amongst themselves. But anyway, i ignored them and sent Coco an sms telling her that i was leaving.
But as i was on the way to the lift, the male model caught up to me and asked me to go into the studio and have a seat. Turns out that he was one of the casters, and i had just been talent-scouted. :|
Like what the hell. Lol. I'm there to look at the contestants - and Coco in particular - doing their practice and this is the kind of thing that happens.
Well anyway...what should i do? I've been approached on the streets before and have ignored previous offers (being the lazy suahku goody boy that i am), but this time i'm actually seriously considering the offer. I can tell that it's a genuine modeling agency with decent connections, and not some kind of scam. It'll cost me $200 to get a hair/makeup job and 9 studio photos to make a calling card thingee. And then they'll sponsor me for about 20+ hours worth of modeling/hosting/image lessons.
But well. Who cares about the costs. I'm not really in it for the money anyway(unless, of course, i somehow turn out to be REALLY successful); rather, i'm just interested in it for the experience of modeling, to get fashion advice and to be able to get nice studio photos and that nice card done up. You don't stay young forever.
I have about one and a half days from now to make a decision and get back to the caster fellow.
