Yep. I'm talking about modeling. It is something that I've always wanted to do; Dress up; photography. I've always had a intent interest in picture-taking or somewhat. I'm moping if you will. I once before, had a chance to be cast or give a try into being a model for a local agency. Everything was fine and dandy until my mom found out there was

You hire them with your own money to photograph in a safe environment. They don't solicit you. That's a classic con. The real headhunters will do it for free as part of a recognized promotion and in very controlled circumstances. Like finding a duck's egg in a hen's nest, that's one in a million, baby.

I think the money involved the modeling classes needed. This is something I really want to do; I just need to get my act together. I'm afraid to ask. Although my friend, she is a model in the company I was supposed to be screened for.

True, modeling doesn't drop like a ripe plum into one's hand.

I am not sure of what to say. A while ago I had a lot of friends that happened to be models. At 5 foot 8, I came up short. I was 36-26-36 and just came across as too fleshy on the camera. Now, you must understand the camera is a terrible liar and that you are not that way and get a day job.

Sure, fine, starve yourself until you can't pick up a jug of milk, much of it is body type. So I looked like Mitzie Gaynor. That's nothing to be ashamed of last I heard.

Dear me. No starvation. Keeping myself healthy with exercise and veggies is good enough for me. The consensus is a tough critic, but there will be people who will hate you or love you with their warped opinions. People just gotta learn that it happens, and just to take it.

My friend is about 5`0 or so. I swear she has a hell of a fast metabolism.
