i don’t feel 24 at all. can’t believe i am only one day away from officially becoming 24, and closer to a quarter of a century.
with age comes wisdom, so with grace i embrace my years…. but i do not feel my age for some reason. i feel both younger and older…. odd, i know.

so, why am i up at 2:30 am, when i have a photo shoot the next day at 8:30am? well i just thought i would write some last words before i engage on the busy weekend.

since this week (and last) had been slow, i was starting to worry. but then, SURPRISE! on wednesday evening, ladies and gentlemen, i booked 3 jobs for the next two days. :)
about time dammit! i hadn’t worked for over a week! – except i was at home doing major cleaning, and doing some graphic and web design.

job #1: on friday june 20, call time 8:30am, a photo shoot which i am still confused about, about the concept and what avant-garde style they have in mind. i am scared of avant-garde sometimes when i don’t have an input….. i better not be naked!!!

job #2: friday june 20, “call time” 8:45pm, a promotion for belvedere vodka – which is very mighty. i pretty much get paid to party, a.k.a. “represent the brand” at flaunt’s magazine launch party, somewhere in a swanky place in the LA downtown area. the cool thing about this job is that, not only do they pay good, but i can wear whatever i want, and say whatever i want to anyone i want and do whatever i want. why? cause it’s belvedere!!! the coolest vodka ever! it actually is pretty good.

job #3: saturday 21st, 10am to 7pm… LOCATION: LAS VEGAS!…. fun you would think… i get paid to fly to vegas and back for the day just so i can be seen strutting very cool clothes on the catwalk – but it’s my bday!!!! :(
i mean, i LOVE this job, the fittings have been SO freaken awesome, and fun (yeshim you are one of the sweetest people ever – at what kind of paid fitting is the model offered wine and brie cheese? only with yeshim. cause she rocks.), and the clothes are very very unique and classy/sexy. but hey work is work and people can’t work around my schedule…. so i will just enjoy it and make the most of it. :) i can probably sneak out and go buy some fridge magnet souvenirs (for the 4985th time).

so maybe i’ll touch base on sunday…. after i come back from vegas and celebrate my bday.

oh, i forgot to mention, today jeanne called me, she wants me to model for hitch couture’s photo shoot again, so i am very happy :) fuuuuun.

and pps: i started running this week. YES i am back on my legs, like i used to in college (i was in the track team). i missed running. i ran 2 miles on monday, and 3 on wed.

and about the kittens…. they are so adorable, and are getting bigger. they really are time consuming though. i have 9 foster kitties, crazy. took 3 of them to get their booster shots today. i tried very hard to not look at the shelter animals, it breaks my heart, EVERY TIME.
saw a man taking 2 kittens to the shelter. i wanted to beat the shit out of him. i wanted to euthanize HIM. the kittens were extremely sick. he said the mom (his cat) was not taking care of them anymore. shelter told him they would be euthanized. killed. he said ok. you stupid idiot, couldn’t you have taken care of this problem earlier? or have taken them to the vet? or have fixed your cat in the first place LIKE YOU’RE SUPPOSED TO???? i despise those kind of people.
i wish i could have taken them, but their upper respiratory problem was so bad, it was going to put my foster kitties at risk. i petted them and prayed for them, and cried. they were 3 weeks old, old enough to make it on their own. but they were so weak, and sick, the shelter did not want to try.

i can forgive what people have done to me. but it is extremely hard for me to forgive those who hurt others WILLINGLY, irresponsibly. especially those who kill innocent, indefensible beings.
