The Day before my classes begin

Been a while since our last real post. Our blog has been flooded with contests.. We're so sorry.. We hope you understand :)




When: Sunday, April 3, 2011
Where: SM Marikina
What: Image Model Search 2011 Screening

I found out that there will be an Image Model Search 2011 Competition and I was so excited to join because this will be a very great opportunity and exposure for me as an aspiring model.
As soon as I found out about this, I immediately talked to Nina and persuade her to join too. Well it took me a lot of convincing words before I finally made her say "YES" LOL! I want her to join so that I'll have someone with me during the screening and so that we'll have this awesome experience together (and we get to blog about this too!). I'm really glad that Nina is a very good friend 'coz she didn't leave me behind even though she was really scared to perform in front of a crowd. But of course I made sure that I supported her too and that this was a great experience for the both of us!

Upon screening we have to fill up a registration form, submit a 4R close up and whole body picture and perform a not more than 2 minutes talent. And this was the part where Nina and I were really nervous about.

Registration:

Talent Portion:

I danced a 1 minute and 2 second dance presentation of the song "Insomnia"

Nina sang "The Show" by Lenka

Funny thing, Nina wasn't able to wear her heels anymore because the judge already called her up on stage. Uhh, she ended up wearing just her slippers! LOL.

We're both relieved after we performed because we know we have conquered our stage fright!

We're anxiously waiting for the results.

The results: I passed and Nina conditionally passed! Yahoo! Conditionally passed means she have to perform her talent again on the next screening for her 2nd chance. It was a great news though unfortunately, the schedule of the contest includes afternoon weekdays and we both have summer classes so we will not be able to attend in their schedule We ended up not joining at all. Maybe it's not meant to be. :(

Here's the schedule for the modeling competition, which mostly will interfere our classes. :(

We ate at McDonald's afterwards showing our sad faces because we won't be able to join the contest even though we passed.
