Career Interests.

There's been a little bit of talk about getting into modeling, more on Yubo's part than mine. It was something his mom suggested, but we don't even know if Yubo would have time to take on part-time modeling. With Alex (my best WA girlfriend) already an amateur model, that got me searching craigslist.com.

It was entertaining browsing through the listings, but it got me thinking about what I'm doing and what I want to be doing.

It sounds like fun to be a model, but I definitely don't have the body for it (or even the face, in my opinion). Even the listings asking for anyone just to expand their portofio got me thinking that nobody in their right mind would want to photograph me. All the acting listings caught my eye, but it's been so long since I've acted that I'm probably horrible now.

I wanted to post a want-ad for models to help me gain more experience as a makeup artist, but I don't exactly have anything to compensate them with. I wonder if I'd be able to pair up with one of those photographers and do makeup for their photoshoots.....? Just a bunch of amateurs trying to gain experience, right?

Anywho, I just wonder what I'll be doing after we get married. The plan was to take up my Mary Kay full time and be more serious about it, but I'll admit that I've lost my passion for it. I don't even go through my own skin care routine properly. I still believe in the products, because they really are great products, but I just don't have the motivation to go out and do classes anymore. I've even been considering trying to get hired at a makeup counter just to get training and gain more experience.

I also had a lot of fun taking pictures and videos of Alex during our Hawaii trip, but I'm nowhere near a decent photographer -- I just get lucky sometimes. I was thinking of carrying around a white sheet and posterboard for taking better before and after pictures though. =P

Not sure what to do. Lots of ideas floating around, but nothing I intend to hold onto just yet.
