good evening sirs and maams!
Today has been a lazy day. But it was raining in Boston, so it's allowed! I went to bed last night around 2am. I woke up at 1pm mainly because my boyfriend dragged me out of bed. I was STILL tired. How is that even possible? We went to lunch and I came right home and was back in bed by 3pm. I slept till 7:30pm till the cat woke me up. I got up and literally dragged my ass to the gym for an hour and a half. Now I am back in bed.
Is it healthy for a person to sleep as much as I do? I feel like my cat, always exhausted from a day of doing nothing. Don't get me wrong. I work 5 nights a week. I work hard. So why can't I go have fun on my days off? Summer's coming. Must. Wake. Up.
So it's been just under a month since my set Horror Business hit Member Review. I was so overwhelmed with the amazing responses I got from everyone. The amazing girls in the Hopefuls Only group are always so brilliant, and the private messages I got from everyone expressing their support and wonderful words... it was was just so awesome. I didn't go Pink. I didn't expect to. The sets going up on the front page are so perfect, and I am far from perfect. It was still dissapointing, but in all honesty, the response from all of you made me feel like I had gone pink. I can't wait to get my second set into the MR queue, and I can't wait to keep trying. You all are the reason for this, and I thank you!
Special thanks to jenorem especially, who took the time to look at my profile, and send me 2 amazing books that he thought I would like. I am so touched by his generosity, and the books are amazing!
Other things.
I still haven't heard if I got into grad school or not. I feel like I'm coming to terms with the impending rejection and I have started to look into other ways to get into Forensic Anthropology. Police work. Volunteer work. Solo classes I could take so I have a better application when I reapply. I am trying not to let this dream circle the drain. I am 27 years old, and it's time things to work out.
Here's what I've been up to.
Marathon Monday in Boston is a state holiday also known as Patriots Day. Also known as one of the most fun day drinking days of the year. My boyfriend and my friends and I started the day off at the Red Sox game at Fenway Park and the shenanigans carried on all day...
Me and the girls...
Me and my boyfriend...
I also had another photoshoot with a photographer I met on Model Mayhem. We were supposed to do an outdoor shoot, but it was raining, so we took over my bar (the martini lounge downstairs) and shot there instead! We used a silver beaded curtain that hangs over the champagne area... the pics came out pretty good!
Hope this all finds you well. Just a parting tidbit. Are any of you hopefuls out there intested in planning a trip to Ohio to shoot? It's been an idea kicking around in my brain for a long time, and I can't justify spending the money just yet, and maybe not for a while. But. It's an idea nonetheless, and it would be nice to have company....
xoxo.
