Thursday, February 28, 2013 2:26 AMHello again.
The blogskin has been under construction for how long now? A month?
I've been meaning to work on it for so long,but.. I've been too lazy to start really.
Or...I don't know.Something's stopping me from starting,and its definitely not for lack of time ._.
I just....cannot visualize exactly what I want and where I want everything to be.
Usually I scribble the general plan of a layout on post-its, but this time the scribbles don't seem to satisfy what I want to do!
I think Im too afraid to just trial and error my graphics until I get it right(the way I want it to be).I really hate backtracking/doing over stuff, and that kinda stops from starting in the first place :/
Anyway wanted to talk(blog?) about something that happened today. I was walking past the Orchard MRT station after exiting the escalator from B1 when this stranger approached me and said he was from some modelling agency. Basically he asked for my name and number so they could contact me. I wanted to just give my email but in the end I warily wrote down my number on his pad :/ I walked away feeling flattered,I guess? Who wouldn't right? But also suspicious because my mother has drilled into me the need to be suspicious of strangers/scams and such.
So I found out that he's from Create Talents agency after looking at the card he gave me. I did my research on it just now, and well judging from the comments many have posted online, it's 90% a scam xD Apparently you have to pay the agency money to get a portfolio done so that the agency can go source for jobs for you.I read the forums and stuff,many others have spent a few hundreds on their portfolios, but have yet to get any sort of modelling jobs.Haha I had my suspicions from the moment the guy approached me.Plus there is no way I consider myself model pretty. Kind of regret giving my number, but oh well I'll see how it goes. It'd be fun to ask them some awkward questions if they call up ehehehe,perhaps I should prepare some! 8D
The thing is, how come such an agency hasn't been shut down yet if there're so many cases of people being scammed? I don't understand...
By the way,Regina Spektor=love <3 nbsp="" p="">3>
