Model for a Day

I was selected to do a high fashion photoshoot for a photographer and makeup artist who want to expand their portfolio!

I arrived with two bags of clothes and about 20 hangers that contained various dresses that I have collected from my highschool dances.

Hair and Makeup for the first "Covergirl" shot in which I was to imitate Liv Tyler's ad for a perfume (?) took 1:30 minutes. It didn't feel that long though! Luckily, my friend arrived for her time (she was chosen too!) and we talked.

The fake eyelashes and makeup looked AMAZING. I seriously felt beautiful and like I could take on the world. That series of pictures in my black prom dress from last year were ok...I need to learn to put more expression in my eyes/get skinner..hahaha(like that can happen...)

The last shoot was my favorite--I had on dark gray eye-makeup and it was a mod-natural look. They made me wear a corset which was really weird...it didn't fit, but oh well.

I feel fortunate to have taken part in the inner workings of the fashion, photography, and makeup industry! I might not ever model again, but I certainly had an awesome time and my confidence got a boost.

I am a Senior.

Tuesday got off to a semi-lackluster start.
Today was better.

1st semester courses:

AP English Literature - Summer reading included Emma, Dubliners, Children of Men, A Thousand Splendid Suns - The teacher seems pretty cool. We are her only period of the day!

AP European History - I've never taken an AP history before, but the teacher is extremely smart and provides a lot of extra insight. It will be a challenge, but fun.

Calculus - Definitely not as fun as Precalculus. I loved Precalculus.

Microbiology - It is going to be very interesting! On the 2nd day of class, we made our own agar and are going to be swabbing the school to grow microbes and archaebacteria!

Physics - The teacher started off giving us difficult problems in which we must use our reasoning skills. I am glad that I took AP Chem last year because I know some of the conversions =) Such as how many molecules are in a mole....6.022 X 10^23 baby!!!

American Government - It is going to take some work --lots of reading/vocab/papers, but I will like it. The teacher tried to convince me to take AP. I really do want to, I just have a bunch of extracurriculars and I don't want to overextend myself.

Last Day of Summer.

Tonight is the last night of summer.
Tomorrow I begin my senior year of high school.

I am not quite sure what to think--the excitement of making it the best year ever coupled with the knowledge of essays and projects and college applications creates a direct dichotomy.

Only time will tell.

I added http://www.commonapp.org/ to my favourites on my internet browser. God, HELP ME!

what, a blog?

I should be finishing my resume and filling out the common app. but I love PROCRASTINATION! ...not.


ACT - not as high as I hoped :S Why is it that I do not test well? I know people whose GPA' are half of mine, yet they score higher on standardized tests. blahhahhhh.

The competition to get into schools is so stressful, especially since my school (my grade especially) is so freaking competitive.

Youtube - I am not sure what I think of YT at the moment. I feel as though my channel is going nowhere because I as a vlogger/filmaker/whateveryoucallit have no more ideas, do not care to put them into motion, and quite frankly, I am boring and don't have the "it" factor. Meanwhile, I have to start thinking about what I really want for the future.... first college and majors/minors, then Medical School? Law School? Someone helpeee meee! Career advice anyone???
