It has Begun!
Tjoooo! Har itne skrivit pa ett tag, forst pga att inte mkt har hant haha. But yesterday the agency opened again, i popped by and met john, the guy that managed the Mr.International contest. He passed 800 american dollars to me, in the form of 8 crispy new hundred dollah bills! haha He also passed me the EXR outfit i was promised, but i forgot it at the agency so imma pick it up on monday hehe.
Oh btw, we were discussing, Me, Jane and John. John was curious when i could go to indonesia, because apparently he's contacting lots of things so i can do lots of commercials and what not. . . seems like i might get quite a few jobs thanks to the competition thing hehe. Oh and Jane was telling john that i'll go to hong kong in august for 2-3 months, then after that Japan . . . and i was like yeh i'm so psyched about going to japan i want to go soooo bad, and she said maybe he won't come back again haha. . . . man i wanna go noooow!!!!After the agency, i went to go cut my hair which had become pretty long. The haircut is a bit different than before. . . i kinda like it, the fringe (Lugg) is longer than the sides of my hear hehe.Ah well, later that night i went to Le Noir where i met Johan, David and some other acquaintances hehe. The day after. . . . that is, today. I woke up at 10am, let the dog out of the bedroom, went back to bed until 13.00. I then got up and made breakfast and switched on the computer. Johan wrote to me on msn, He had nothing to do either, so he suggested that we go watch a movie. I figured why not, sounds nice. So Johan came with his driver and picked me up at Wyle's place. We went to orchard and watched National Treasure 2, it was pretty good. Afterwards, i called Guama and she told me to eat by myself. So i was figuring i'd go eat some cheap chicken rice or something. . . . . Johan said he was going to go meet the prince of Joho (Malaysia) named Idris. He told me to come along and i figured yeh why not. We went to the exclusive Hilton hotel and met Idris, his sister, his sister's friend, mom, and mom's friend. Me and Johan ended up being invited for the hilton buffet hahaha. So instead of cheap chicken rice i ended up eating with a royal family, a buffet which had sushi, sashimi, clams, huge shrimps, all kinds of cheese, etc etc etc. . . . . beautiful hahaha Wel,, Idris and johan are going to Zouk tonight to see the DJ "David Guetta" who is in my opinion exellent, but i declined the offer to join them :( don't feel like i have the energy at the moment haha. Tomorrow i might be going to JB together with David, We'll prolly meet Idris down there if we go as well, so hopefully i'll go to JB tomorrow. . . .We'll have to see though because the relatives are having some gay dinner -.-. . . . Hehehhe Idris was a pleasant young man, even though he has all the money in the world and when i asked him how many cars he had. . . he couldn't answer XD Some of his cars were in some mercede's museum in europe at the moment and stuff like that hahaha but he was very down to earth and he seemed like any other guy. Ah well. . . we'll see what happens tomorrow ;)
Oh btw, on the day the agency opened i also went for a casting for some watch print. . . other than that nothing's happened ;)
Lotsa Love

Days without purpose
I'm back at where I was when i was enjoying the summer vacation in sthlm. . . days without purpose. . . . a bore. . . or bliss? Judging from my peace loving nature, i suppose it's kind of a bliss. . . however, i love working as a model and for once i actually long for the day work starts again hehe ;)
As for today. . . nothing has happened, just sat and watched my series on the intarnet. I went to the gym and finally got picked up by the grandparents to go eat and mingle with a group singaporians. Among others, Joseph who i met several years ago, edmun, etc.
Well. . . that's about it, except for the phone call i got from Anders, daddy's friend. He's in Singapore now and they were wondering if i wanted to join them for dinner tomorrow. I had been ignorant of the fact that tomorrow is actually the 24th haha. . . doesn't feel like christmas i can tell you that XD Anyway, tomorrow i'll be eating with the grandparents, dinner with the swedes will have to wait ^^ although i'd like to meet them all soon!
That's about it!
Lotsa Love
/Alex
Oh! almost forgot! Have a very merry christmas! as for my new year, i've already got plans, the agency has fixed free tickets for me to go party on sentosa beach the 31st, and i can bring as many friends as i want :D
PS.
Farfar
I miss our family gatherings in sweden hehe, instead of fighting with my swedish shadow, i have now gained a few more shadows here in singapore. There are quite a few kids running around, especially the youngest "Ethan" seems to be crawling all over me, not to the same extent as fredrik but on the verge hehe. I don't mind, brings fond memmories of that crazy kid back home ;)
As for dogs, the dog here at wiley's place is quite troublesome at times as well, always stealing my food and running off to chow down, thing is i don't dare take it back because it's a big husky dog haha. At the moment the dog has crawled under the bed. . . she does this sometimes so that i will allow her to sleep in the same room as me. . . problem is it keeps me awake because i worry if she's going to pee in the room or not. . . .. Guess it doesn't really matter at the moment anyway because i stay awake a long time dreaming of Mixed Japanese/caucasian girls haha. That's my thing at the moment XD
As for the laptop, i'm going to purchase it as soon as possible! check the email i sent you, i am looking for an overkill computer, but the pricing is important ofc ^^
To me the G2S looks very promising, but i want to be certain!
Scrap whatever i said in the email . . .. talking with tiliikainen brothers right now. . . ok, max has gone down to grab some food so i'm going to wait 20 minutes before i talk with him again. And he's the expert when it comes to computers especially laptops. He says that the games i want to play are next generation graphics which require next gen equipment so i will need a laptop which ranges atleast 15.000kr and above. which i kind of knew already.
As for felix, we had a good long talk, basically what we kom fram till:
The alienware computer will be stronger, even at a possible lower price. However, the Asus computer will have åäö which is infact extremly important, the Asus computer will also have a much better customer service, and in his opinion he chose the Asus computer infront of the Alienware computer. So that's one point to the Asus. Now let's wait 20 minutes and see what Max the all knowing has to say about the issue ;)
I've been doing some more research during my wait, and i'm leaning more and more toward the Asus. . . .
It's settled, the Pro has spoken. . .. Asus G2S it is! buy it as soon as possible! and i will send money as soon as the freaking agency reopens!
But make sure that it has åäö tangenterna. . . it HAS to have those three letters or else i don't want the laptop haha, then it's back to the drawing board.
Vanta,. . .. nu har vi andrat oss iagen. . . . Jag hade skickat ett email till webhallen haromdagen, de hade rekommenderat 2 andra datorer. En av dem var piss, sa den kolla jag inte in i mkt.
Men. .. har har vi datorn bade max och jag har valt:
http://www.webhallen.com/prod.php?id=81904&view=1
Max sager att den e kalas grymm. . . .that's enough for me :D jag har ju saklart kollat en heeel del ocksa. . . .vi spekulerat i 2 timmer nu. . . tillsammans med max i typ 45minuter, och vi har nu valt HP datorn. Gar att kopa pa webhallen till och med, quick and easy.
So finally, I want the HP laptop at webhallen, Asus was good but the HP is better.
If you have any questions let me know :D
GOD JUL and Thanks a lot for the help!
Lena
Hahaha, money will always be of issue >.< and ofcourse you and my relatives are on top of my facourites list!
As for my charisma and personality, it has been built on the accumulation of impressions from several sources, you amongst others!
Good ol days building forts and watching Tom and Jerry haha, was watching tom and jerry two days ago at some singaporian's house. . . i always think of you when i see that series.
Anyway, i'm sure you guys will have a very pleasant christmas in sweden. . . .here i'm not too sure it will be the same, maybe we'll go to some dinner but it won't be nearly as nice as in sweden!
God jul and Lotsa love

Det ar valdigt trakigt att inte spendera julen med vannerna och framforallt familjen. . . . men men, jag har ju morforaldrarna iaf!

O' Loathsome Days
Well. . . since i don't have work till the 27th of dec, which is when the agency opens again. . . . i'm not doing much at all. . . . today i have settled my self in at wyle's place and enjoyed an evening of fast internet.
I also went to . . . . dammit i always forget his name. . . sweet old man. . . . but freakin chinese names are impossible to remember. . .. for a westerner that is, and i can without doubt say that i've become very europeanised hehe.
Pretty funny how liberal sweden is, i guess i took it so much for granted that i didn't realize it until now.
One of the mothers was talking with me, her nefew had apparently asked her for a necklace for christmas. She asked me, are there jewellery for boys? Do you wear any? I gave her a few tips and i was surprised she even asked me the question haha. So then i started talking about how boys have started piercing their ears and various other body parts :P as if that didn't shock her enough i told her a few of my friends even have tatoos.
Seemed pretty amazing to her, she asked what my mother would say if i came home with a pierced ear, i told her i think my mom would be alright with it.
Hehe, funny how different cultures can vary ;)
Well. . .. nothing more to report today really. . .. nice talking to mom and dad again.
Lotsa love

As i already mentioned i greatly appreciate your fast response and accumulation of info about laptops!
Oh, btw, the learning of japanese is going well, but the pronunciation is hard. . . i think i need to have a telephone conversation with you sometime soon so that we can discuss the pronunciation hehe. Like. . . . no = iie and house = ie . . . . . .. the hell is the difference?! that was the simplest example i could think of btw XD
And if i'm not mistaken the pronunciation is huge in japanese. . . . .
Ah well! Hope all is well!
Love
Lena
Hoho! have no fear, i'll be here a long time! atm my first priority is to get a laptop, then after a few more catwalks i can pay for your ticket! haha :D
Ah yes, the days where the sun never rises and the days where the sun is up all the time. . . i was telling the singaporians about that this evening hehe.
Well. . .. here it is still freakin hot as hell and i sweat wherever i go. . . . . each little breeze is enjoyed to the fullest haha.
I'm sure it will be a great christmas even without your noisy godson running amock XD
Hope all is well with you, how're the pains and aches? any progress?

The oven. . .
Hellu!
Well not much happened today. . . . it was one of the hotter days. . . one of those days where i just gradually died with each step i took. . .It was hotter than a sauna, it was more like an oven, when the sun was just blazing from above without stop. . . hopeless hopeless heat haha!
Anyway. . . i spent my morning watching southpark, then i went to the gym and met Khai again. I haven't seen him in a long time because he had hurt himself during a soccer match, so he'd been on sickleave and today he was wearing a big, cast-supporter-thing on his leg. Well it was fun to see him again and as usual we talked for an extended period of time :P, this time he told me about an island in malaysia that barely anyone knows about, and it's supposed to be crazy awesome. So i'll have to go check that out someday hehe.
Well, after the gym, i went to subway and ate a 12inch subway club sandwich. . . love it.
And now. . . .i'm learning japanese, uploading photos from the KL trip and watching southpark haha.
Hope all is well with you guys!
Miss you guys, Lotsa Love

Thanks a lot for a quick answer! Let's see if levitech knows about any cheaper options, or if they could just select the parts necessary for a proper, solid and strong gaming laptop ^^
Jibberish, is pretty much just a more refined way of saying “Bullshit”. . . .it pretty much means just talk about anything, in fact, what you say doesn't even have to make any sense. . . in fact, jibberish is actually more correctly defined as speaking, but making absolutely no sense at all. . .
As for KL, i was already there ;) KL = Kuala Lumpur = Malaysia = The 4 day trip i made with my friends hehe. However, the Auditions were already over, so the guy gave us some contact information and told us to just send pictures for future reference ;)
As for AADB, yeh ofc, i've always dreamt of acting. . . . i mean who hasn't haha, not only for the fame and money, but i mostly wanna do it because of the adventures and experiences you get to . . .experience. Like how many people can say they've been a pirate in the carribean fighting with skeletons along side a freakin gorgeous model/actress, how many people can say they've landed on a giant meteor jsut in time to save the worlf from certain destruction. . . etc.
That's what really makes me want to do acting haha, for the excitement and amazing shit you get to go through ^^
Haha, well about girls maturing faster, people all guess i'm 24 around here, scandinavians in general i guess look older hehe.
Ok, about Felix's contact, i do not know because my swedish phone is incapacitated :P But his Email (Come on, who uses the phone anyway, we're in the 21st century ;) is puff_the_magic_dragn@hotmail.com (And yes it is dragn, without the “o”)
Alright, have fun on saturday!
Lotsa Love

Hahahaha ja du berattade om den dar storyn, i remember you were telling me about the chips flying everywhere and what not. I had no idea it was in genting highlands though ^^ Yes i must admit, bad weather in malaysia, and singapore is just amazing weather, vicnent knows that as well. Last year when he was here, during a thunderstorm, the two of us jsut stood by the window and shivered of excitement, it's really something :D
I'm going to miss you guys during christmas as well :( very very much.
And i heard from rikard that it's been below zero for quite a while, and even though it hasn't snowed, he says that the frost that has accumulated makes it look as if it has been snowing. Sounds pretty nice :D
I love swedish sundowns and sunups. . . i remember one day during the summer holiday a long time ago in sweden. Me and Joseph were up at 4-5am, we decided to head down to the pier, where we climbed up on a roof and watched the heavens as they opened up and serenaded us in bright, intense colours. . . .. Stora essingen is bloody amazing around 4-5am ;)
Miss you guys!
Lotsa love

The agency is on holiday leave until the 27th XD. . . .sooooo i'll just chill out at whiley's house tomorrow hehe.

I had no idea it was in genting highlands though ^^ Yes i must admit, bad weather in malaysia, and singapore is just amazing weather, vicnent knows that as well. Last year when he was here, during a thunderstorm, the two of us jsut stood by the window and shivered of excitement, it's really something :D
I'm going to miss you guys during christmas as well :( very very much.
And i heard from rikard that it's been below zero for quite a while, and even though it hasn't snowed, he says that the frost that has accumulated makes it look as if it has been snowing. Sounds pretty nice :D
I love swedish sundowns and sunups. . . i remember one day during the summer holiday a long time ago in sweden. Me and Joseph were up at 4-5am, we decided to head down to the pier, where we climbed up on a roof and watched the heavens as they opened up and serenaded us in bright, intense colours. . . .. Stora essingen is bloody amazing around 4-5am ;)
Miss you guys!
Lotsa love
PPS
The agency is on holiday leave until the 27th XD. . . .sooooo i'll just chill out at whiley's house tomorrow hehe.

Our Trip to Kuala Lumpur!
Ni hao!
I'm back in singapore. . . and it feels good!
So, last friday I went to the movie casting. It was biiig, it was a hollywood movie from Warnerbros, and the director had made some major movies, one of em was one of the ones kimmy likes. . . i dunno something like save the last dance or something like that :P
It was really cool to be in the same room with someone that BIG.
At first, we were around 5-6 people in the waiting room, then one of the people taking care of the audition comes in with a video camera and starts filming us when we're just talking with eachother. Then we take individual photos, and then they tell everyone that the director only wants to see 3 of us, based on what he saw in the video they just filmed ehhe. It was me, David and Mark. The rest had to leave :P
The director was very friendly, he was from brazil. I had to read the lines of a character called Eddie, it was a dialogue so i read it together with another person hehe. At first i just read from the paper, after i had gone through the script the director wanted me to look up at a point and just talk about anything, jibberish, whatever i want. But he said i had to look more serious, considering that the role was for a shaolin monk hehe. So i naturally started off with "The monkey will not reveal itself. . . until the moon has risen high. . . .into the sky"
Haha, everyone started bursting out in laughter so it wasn't very serious hahaha but after that i just talked bullshit and tried to look neutral/serious :P
It was fun! I met a lot of new people, and one of the guys that was auditioning, hooked me up with another audition in KL haha.
I also heard about something called www.AADB.com i think it was, "Asian actors data base." A few of the people doing the audition were members of that site, one of the guys said that you have to pay 100dollars for a 1-year subscription, but he had already made 1500 sing dollars from it. It's a homepage that sends you to castings for movies and tv series and stuff. Sounds cool, i suggested it to my agency as well.
Oh and David told me that these kind of castings are great because they keep the video of your audition and if you suit a future role in a future movie they'll contact you ^^
Anyway, after the casting i stressed and rushed a bit, but Johan and his driver . . . or whoever the guy was :/ picked me up right outside the appartment so that was nice.
We got to the busstation with like 15 minutes to spare. . . but johan was hungry so he ordered some thai food. . . . . which he did not have time to finish :P
The buss was awesome. Huuuuge leg space, every chair was a massage chair, little screens that you folded up infront of you and food was given to us. The food was spicy beyond all reason but i ate it anyway and almost died. . . .
It was a 5 hour trip. . . it went really fast though, i watched some movies on the foldable screen, listened to some of johan's music, watched a movie on johan's laptop. . . .and yeh before we knew it we were eagerly looking otu the windows for a glimpse of the Petronas Towers in KL.
When we got off in KL we went looking for a cab to drive us to our hotel, we asked one guy who gave an outrageous price and johan refused to go with that cab so we went and looked for another cab.
This time we were lucky, very lucky actually, the cab driver was very nice and he's all like "I hate the indian cab drivers, don't ever take a cab driven by an indian in KL" and however rascist it may have seemed at that point. . .. we found out later that what he was saying was absolutely true. . . basterds, give outrageous fixed prices, and when we force them to use the meter, it turns out they've fiddled with the meter so it ticks a LOT quicker, they pretend to not be able to speak english, when they a few seconds earlier spoke fluent english. . . and it's just UGH! hate it. . .
Anyway, this cab driver was great, he gave us a little tour as we made our way to the hotel and everything hehe.
Well we got to the hotel, the Concorde hotel, 4 stars, very nice. It was on top of a hard rock cafe, opposite a 7-eleven, within walking distance from Zouk (The club) and KLCC (A major shopping centre).
Funny enough we arrived at the hotel at the exact same time as David who had taken the train like 7 hours earlier hehe.
We got shown up to our room, very nice, everything was clean and pleasant. . . except for the water in one of the taps which was like yellowish :P
we were all full of excitement and very happy to be in malaysia, because it was close that we wouldn't get there. Johan had lost his passport and had to pick up an emergency passport earlier that morning. . . .strangely enough it wasn't as impossible as i thought it was. . . 15 dollars and he got a temporary passport hehe.
Well after we got settled in, we went down and met up with Johan's father who was staying in the area. He seemed to know everyone, and when we ewnt to hard rock for dinner, the queue was like 30minutes long but through johans dad we got one of the reserved table hehe.
I ate soooooo freakin much. . . . .
After that, Johan's dad paid for the meal haha, and we went on upstairs.
Johan called Ksenya and another russian model, who came a bit later that night to our room where we spent a short time before we headed out to Zouk.
Zouk was like singaporian zouk. . . btu worse. . . . and the people there were a bit dodgey haha. But through the two russian models we got in without having to pay entrance and stuff.
Wow. . . those two girls were hit on maaany times throughout the night by strangers haha XD
It was alright, but i was kinda tired and not in that much of a mood to head out partying :P
At 3am all clubs close in malaysia, so we headed home for beddy time.
The next day we went to an outdoor market, bought around 30 pirated dvd's (I didn't buy any though), and just walked around and checked the place out.
After that we went to one of the major shopping malls where we ate and went to a big assed indoor theme park and did a rollercoaster that did loops and corkscrews and what not hahaha it was a lot of fun, we also went to an IMAX movie theater and watched the new movie with Will smith "I am Legend" awesome movie. Later that evening we went to Heritage road. It's like singapore's Clark Quay where all the night clubs are. We went to the malaysian fashion bar which isn't as nice as the singaporian one. . . but whatever, models get in for free, no free drinks though.
The day after that me and david woke up early for breakfast buffet. . . . but johan refused to get out of bed haha, he almost cried XD
After our breakfast we came back to the room and johan was still in bed, the reason we woke up early was to go to genting highlands. Which we eventually did, we grabbed a special genting highland cab that drove us all the way up there. . .. . and let me tell. . . that driver was craaaazyyyyyy. He was kind, but craaaazy on the road. Drove soooo fast and the roads were twising and turning, the tires were screeching and we were all like shit shit shit hahahhaa.
It was me, Johan, David and Diego (Another model)
Oh, before we reached genting highlands the cab driver offered to drop us off at the Batu caves, which was on the way to genting highlands.
It was awesome, i have lots of pictures from this day,.
it was a huge assed cave, with indians everywhere (It was some religious thingy, with like a temple in the cave and stuff)
Monkeys were running around everywhere, ignoring all the people, it was awesome ahhaa, one of the monkeys got pissed at me though, he came and bitchslapped my leg :P
but it was a really cool experience that cave.
Anyway, we got back to the car and headed to genting highlands.
Genting highlands is atop of a few mountains and because it is so high up it is actually pretty cold up there, we were surrounded by a cloud throughout the whole visit haha, sometimes you could barely see anything infront of you XD
Well, when we first arrived, everyone put on their jackets and jerseys. . .. but i haven't brought any of that to singapore hahaha, so i had taken my shirt with me instead. . . it was cold, but it sufficed.
We began by going to a japanese restaurante and eating some cheap assed sushi which i thought tasted a bit crappy hehe.
After that we split up. David went to check out the 2 major casinos in the genting highlands hotel (Supposed to be famous casinos)
Me, Johan and Diego went to the two theme parks. 1 outdoor and 1 indoor. . . . buuuuuuut because of the mist, most rides were closed :( And all the thrill rides were in the outdoor theme park so that sucked ass.
But some how we managed to enjoy our day even though all the rides we wanted to do were closed. . . . .We did get to do a fritt fall version though. . .. it was craaaaazy, we went up the tower and because of the mist, the ground slowly faded away from under our feet until you actually couldn't see anything but a white cloud under you hjahahhahaha we were shitting our pants. Man that was like the coolest thing i've ever experienced. .. . i found the place to be simply amazing, the cloud and mist was just making everything so mistical and unkown haha.
We also went to an archery to shoot some bow and arrows, we went to the snow land hahahaha -5 degrees, hilarious XD it wasn't really snow hahahaha not even close XD but i enjoyed the cold :D
Well finally the day came to an end and we headed back home. Diego and David went out with some girls (Apparently they weren't attractive and me and Johan were too tired so we figured. . . screw it :P) Me and johan stayed back and watched a few movies on his laptop hehe.
Next day, me and david went to KLCC to eat kebab again. When we came back home johan had woken up and he and david went downstairs to do something. . . .
When they came up johan was laughing histerically. . .. and he's like "hahaha omg. .. alex. . .. bad news. . .. we might be stuck here"
Our money was running out, we didn't have tickets to go home (Even though we were supposed to go home that evening) They said you have to book 5 days in advance. . .. . . we were effed. . . . . Somehow though. . . we managed to scrape enough money together to pay for the hotel, then johan borrowed 150 dollars from his dad, and we went to the trainstation because we had managed to find a second hand train which we weren't sure had airconditioning but we had to get home ahha.
Now to the next problem. . .. the train was leaving in 30 minutes. . . .we were in queue for the tickets, 34 people were ahead of us. . .. . . . . . HMMMMMMMMMMMM. . . .. and then the freakin counter lady walks off and never returns. . .. we were all very anxious and i'm like. . . maybe we should go ask and see if we can go before hand. David and Johan go talk with the counter while i watch the bags.
Phhhhewwwwwww they turn around and David gives me the thumbs up. . . . . .. . wow. . . .otherwise we would've had to sleep in the station and grab the next train which would leave at 8am .. . . the next morning. . .
Well, turns out we didn't have to rush anyways. . . .the damn train was delayed by 1 hour and 30 minutes :P
Once we got on the train. . . it was pretty nice actually (second hadn train, but first class) haha, huge leg space. . . and it was nice actually.
Because it was a night train we all just kinda tried to sleep through the whole 10 hour trip. . .. but it was difficult because we were sitting right by the door to the next waggon. . . .. and the damn door wouldn't close so we had to hear the roaring noise of the bloody train wheels agaisnt the train tracks all night hahahah. And it was freakin cold beyond all reason. . .. SOOOOOO cold. . . . . i was FREEEEEEEEZING!
Anyway. . . we got home haha.
I slept until 5pm when i got back to the appartment in singapore XD
WEll .. all in all, it was an interesting trip, exciting, and fun.
And wow the attention from girls was crazy XD
Anyway. . .. that's about it! Feels good to be home again :P or well in singapore that is hehe.
Lotsa Love
/Alex
Farfar!
Eeeeek you gotta be careful with girls! it's impossible to tell their age, i've been in situations where i thought the girl was around my age but turns out she was like 4 years younger and even that made me like EEWAAK. . . . hahaha but now ever here in asia it's the other way around. . . everyone thinks i'm 24 and such. . .. sometimes i just go with it haha.
Erotic comics. . . sure that's always pleasant XD
Hur som helst! Business time!
I have a mission, a request if you may.
I have been interested in buying a laptop for a long time now, and well now that i have enough money and that i'm in a situation where a laptop is damn useful. . . . i figured it is time to get one.
However, i want a swedish laptop with swedish keyboard hehe. (Actually now when i go through this. . . it doesn't really matter, felix says that Alienware is 120% american so. . . i guess it'll have to be english keyboard, unless the shop suggests another laptop ;)
AAAAnd i'm also not entirely sure what i should be getting. . . . . Do you think that if your schedual allows it, could you pop by our friends in the tiny underground shop where we purchased my current monster stationary computer and ask for some advice?
My requirements are that the computer is able to play games like:
F.E.A.R
Battlefield 2142
World Of Warcraft and other MMORPG's
and other craving/heavy games such as these!
Here is a homepage felix sent me
http://www.alienware.com/Configurator_Pages/area-51_m9750.aspx?SysCode=PC-LT-AREA51M9750&SubCode=SKU-DEFAULT
That computer seems badassed. . . so i just wonder if you ever have a chance if you could go by the store (Where we bought my stationary) and ask them to select which parts i should choose for a badassed computer that can play those kind of games, yet be somewhere around the price of 15 000 kr hehe i could stretch that a bit further. . .. but that's expensive >.<
Anyway, would be great if you could help me out with this hehe.
Lotsa Love!
Lena
Come to singpaore ^^
Hahaha well malaysia was alright. . . but singapore is better.
Malaysia was HOOOOT as shiet because of all the pollution and smog. . . . and the people were a bit dodgey. . .. a bit more hostile than singaporians hehe. I'm glad i'm back in honest singapore hehe.
I still have yet to acquire your book, but now i've heard about another bookstore which is apparently even bigger than borders. . . so i'll go check it out when i get the chance :D
Hope all is well with you!
Lotsa Love!
Marie
aaaaw i miss the cozyness of christmas. . .. it just doesn't feel the same over here. . . it's still 10 times hotter than a swedish summer. . . at it's PRIME. . ..
Niope. . .. no lucia for me this year :( i did get to go to snow city though haha, it was kinda lame. . . .but i still got to see some "snow" this year :D
Other than that everythin is fine overhere, and i'd like to get back to work. . . . i feel like i waste my time now when i don't do anything throughout the day >.<
Hope all is well!
Lotsa Love!

KL!
Hello!I'm in Kuala Lumpur with David and Johan now. The hotel is schteeeek!It's right next to a 7-eleven, hard rock cafe and Zouk haha.Well uhm, yesterday we arrived at around 9pm, then we ate at hard rock cafe, which johan's father paid for haha. After that we returned to the room, all three of us were really tired, but eventually Ksenia and her friend (Two russian models) came to the hotel room and we just sat around for a little while.Finally we decided we'd go check out zouk, we got in for free due to the russian model's manager haha. It was pretty ok, but singaporian zouk was much nicer. . . and bigger. . . Today. . . David has gone out to buy a KL guide book and some cold medecine for us haha.We're planning to maybe go do a movie marathon because it's so cheap, we've been checking out attractions and have found paintball, four wheel vehicle drives, go carts, theme parks (Wet and dry) so we're gonne try and figure out what to do ^^I just showered and johan is in the shower at the moment. . . after this i think we'll head down to hard rock cafe again. . . . they had som awesome fahitas!
Lotsa Love

Hey!
Was close to not being any trip at all!
Johan had lost his passport so he went this morning to the embassy to beg for a new one hahaha, 15dollars later and he was set for malaysia!
I was highly doubting he'd get it hahaha, but seems like it was easy :P
Anyway, the show yesterday was a looooong one, the day went on forever! i had 7 outfits, but i don't have time to tell you guys abiout it right now because johan is gonna pick me up in a few minutes.
As for the kung fu casting, hahaha it was fun and exciting, at first there were only me and 6 other people in the room, then some people came in and just filmed us as we were just talking normally amongst ourselves, then later we got our fullbody shots taken, then the people came in and said the director wants to see 2 other guys and me. The others were told to leave :(
Anyway made some new friends and i really have to go so i'll tell you more about it when i get a chance! Be back on teusday!

It's a dirty job. . . but somebody's got to do it!
HEYOOOO!
Today. . . i first woke up. . .got ready for a casting. . . called Airfrance . .. . the wait took so long. . . eventually i talked with one of the agents who first told me she had to check if it was possible to change my flight. . . so i had to wait for another period on the phone. . ..
Eventually she took up the phone again and said it was possible, and i said i didn't have a credit card so i'd have to come by the Airfrance office in order to pay for the changing expenses :P
I look at time, i see it's now impossible to make it to casting, i call Ting at the agency, she tells me she'll see what she can do. I go to bed for a while, 20 min later Ting calls and says i can still go to the casting . .. . which i do.
The photografer at the casting was really nice, after the casting (For sony ericsson) i went to Airfrance to change my ticket, which i do (It only costed like. . . 121 sing dollars), afterwards i realize i'm going to be late for the given time when i'm supposed to be at the Diesel show. So i stress my way there, grab a cab. . . cab get's lost. . . i come half an hour late. . .. . no problem, people are still arriving and i wasn't the last model to arrive. . . .that's how punctual this business is ;)
Anyway, the coreographer is the same girl who did the Cortina show, a bit confusing show actually. . .. i think i did a few wrongs during the actual show haha, but doens't matter because i was the inledare of the second part, so they prolly just thought it was part of the show XD.
Anyway. . .. i came there for the rehearsal, the time was about 12.15pm. . . . . . then we all just sat around until 7pm. . .. . . sucks. . .. me Jonas and Jemmy put our bags on the ground as pillows and just got some shut eye :P
The models were me, jemmy, jonas, marcella, ganna, angel (Chinese girl who i got along very well with), uhm. . . and a few other girls. . .
Eventually they told me, ganna, and i don't remember her name but she was also russian. We were supposed to get dressed into dinner suits and go downstairs to welcome the guests. Ganna was in a police uniform (Ofc it was a cut off skirt unifrom type), the other girl was in a black dress (She was to be my . . . i woman or how to say ahha) and i was the Mobster king, maffia XD
Anyway, Ganna was tied up on a chair and handcuffed to a door, the other girl was just standing around, and my job was to approach all guests that came near enough and ask them mysteriously. "Are you here for the Diesel Show?" "Then follow me" as me and the guests passed by ganna she would yell and say uuugh don't go in call the police blablabla, I would just say "Don't worry we have the security under control as you can see, please don't listen to the hostage" "Enjoy your evening"
Hehehe it was alright. . . btu sweaty because i was in a suite and it was outside. . .. in singapore. .. . cry. . .
Anyway, tiem came for the show, so we all went backstage and my first outfit was really nice, a silvery jacket, black shirt with dark grey tie and black pants. Really nice. We did our thing, the second outfit was sooooo so gay. . . . Tight jeans, and a cotton stickad trojja that. . . .was V ringad down to my navel, arms cut off. . . . .and it was just so gay. . . hahahaha
ah well, i did my thing anyway XD
Then after the show we returned backstage (Btw this was a private show. . . .so cathy didn't miss anything anyways ;) We changed into our "Third outfit" my outfit was a mad scientist (Just my normal jeans and a buttoned whitecoat), i was to stand behind a bar with sprutor and vials filled with red bull and vodka and I would ask the guests "Do you dare try my special brew? it could be red bull and vodka. . .. . but it could not!"
It was pretty fun. . . . . and the coolest. . . .. well i don't like to boast. . .. and by that i mean i absolutely do, sometimes!
So i was standing there, at first i was just spraying the stuff into people's mouths through the sprutor and handing out the stuff in vials to people. Eventually 3-4 people came and stayed for quite a while and just had refill after refill haha, a fun bunch though so i didn't mind, we were chatting and chatting. . . one gay guy from LA and 2 women, from australia i think.
After a while another woman joined them (Their friend) She had the "Wow factor" i just thought to myself. . . . nice. .. .
Well she comes to me and exclaims oooh! you were the hottest one tonight! .. . .. nice. . .. after a while they ask how old i am. . . i tell them to guess, they all guess 24-25 . . .. nice. .. . I tell em i'm 19 and they ofc get shocked, then they ask me to guess their ages, the gay guy was like 30. . . i guessed 25, one of the women was 23, i guessed 22 and the "Wow" one (Who turns out she was a model before) was 28!. . . i guessed 22 XD
One of the women told me i should unbutton my coat because it would look better, at first i did nothing. . . .eventually they unbuttoned it for me while i was posing for a picture haha. . . .
Well the model one asked for another shot in her mouth from the spruta, but she said i had to kiss her first. . . .. i kissed her on the cheek. . . . she asked again a bit later. . .. i kissed her. . .. man my job sucks doesn't it?
She was so hot. . .. . really hot. . .
Then later she came up and said "If i were single i'd probably hit on you and try to get you home" . . . .. then i died. . . ..
haha i just told her "Well too bad for you, your loss ;)"
hahahha. . . .. . man. . ..
And afterwards, when i changed back into my normal outfit the stylist girl wanted to get a photo with me before i left. . .. . . nice. . .. she was cute as well ^^
After the show, i walked with the model gang toward the MRT station, the models that lived in the same area (Everyone except me and the chinese girl) wanted to go to cold storage to buy some food for the day after. . . . i said i'd see em later and told em i'd go to the MRT, the chinese girl said she'd follow. It was a pleasent walk .. . and now i'm home. . . .really tired. . .
Late day tomorrow though so no problem :D
Oh i got paid 350 sing dollars for the show, pluss a 675kr bottle of perfume hehe. (The diesel show was a launch party for this perfume, i think it was called "Fuel for Life")
Ok so tired. . . . gnight!

Busy body ;)
Moshi moshiiii!
Been a busy day!
First i woke up at 6.30am and left early for a fitting at the Forum shopping mall. The fitting was for Diesel! and i got some pretty cool clothes so let's hope that it's not a bloody private show this time. . . .oh wait it won't matter. . . Cathy isn't here to photograf it anyway :( just my luck. . . all the cool outfits i get, are either private shows or Cathy isn't available >.<>.<) . We went to Sakor's schtekiga golf club and ate. Sakor and her husband knew about Kong Kong's birthday so they ordered a cake, then when the cake arrived i said we have to sing! Sakor said, "You sing, you're the grandson" I said "no no no what are you talking about, ofcourse we ALL have to sing!" then i started counting down from 3 before anyone could complain. . . .. and we started singing. . . .. . . . . . .. sigh. . .. I used my thundering voice i inherited from my father. . . you know what i mean haha, but Sakor, her husband, Cathy .. . and Guama i don't even know if she was singing at all. . . . They were sooooo quiet, i could only hear my own voice. When we had sung finished in english i continued to sing out loud in swedish. . . . they were all silent .. . . i am very very disappointed. At least after i had shouted "Hipp Hipp" they all said Hurrah Hurrah. . . . . when i was finished everyone smiled and what not,. . . .. and Guama tells me "Look, everyone in the restaurant is looking at you. . . . " I naturally got pissed off and told her "Well atleast i sang, shame on you, not even daring to sing on your husband's birthday". . . . . . Hahaha my asian grandparents aren't as loud and lively as my swedish grandparents i guess XD. . . . Ah well, now i'm home again, been a busy busy day! Exhausted and tired as hell now >.<
Tomorrow. . . is free for the timebeing though :D so we'll see what happens ;)
Gnight!

Anyways, yeeees ofc i know japan is perfectionist country nr 1. If anything i am putting it up on a pedestol! That's why i got so so so soooo excited when the agency said i could go there, i wasn't expecting i could go there for another. . .. well for a long time haha. And people who have been there have told me that it's hard to get work, but all you need is one job and the whole trip will already have been beneficial haha!
I don't mind though, i kinda wanna go just.. . . well wth! Just becasue it's JAPAN!
You can keep the dictionary for a while, because i am reading an entire book on learning japanese at the moment :P after this i will return to the bookstore and see what i can consume next ;)

Noooothing!
Hallo!
nooothing has happened today :P
Woke up . . .. sat infront of the TV together with Cathy, both in our PJ's. . . . watched 2 chinese movies, Fann Wong is SO freakin hot. . .. go go singaporean actresses XD
Well. . . yeh. . . nothing happened today :P
Oh well, i talked with a few friends over msn, and they told me how great ZoukOut was :'(
And i talked with Johan Lavoo about our malaysia trip, i dun have to pay for the bus trip to malaysia because his mom wanted to pay for em XD hahaha and the hotel we're gonna stay in is a 4 star hotel for 75 bucks a night. . .. split by two .. . . that's a damn nice price haha.
Well. . . . .nothing much has happened other than that. . . i spent like an hour or two talking with johan, he said his next stop will be milan and then tokyo. So i discussed a few agencies in tokyo together with him and researched a bit. . . gonna ask the agency a bit more seriously about japan tomorrow i think.
Turns out Johan is no older than 17 actually! He started modelling in Milan when he was 16, he was and still his the youngest model around haha.
Well. . .. . . ..uhm. . .. yeh. . that's about it. . .. Gotta go to bed soon because i have a fitting for a Diesel show tomorrow at 8.45am >.<
Going to buy Lena's "Hab theory" and a "Japanese Learning Book" :P i figured if i wanna go to japan i may as well learn some bloody japanese!
Alright!. . . lights out!
Nighty Night!
Love

Farfar!
Where are your spanish skills! Hola is hello in spanish :D
And to be honest i agree with you farfar, i try to keep a distance from religious extremists, but one of the guys was really nice and told me that if i feel uncomfortable he'd help me leave the place, but i'm very open minded so i figured i may as well sit through the thing and see what it's like hehe. I'm not in a hurry to go back though ;)
As for the Ballet, i believe Ballet is an interest for a select few. . . especially in this time era, Not many nowadays have a sense for the old fashion arts haha our minds hve been corrupted by television haha!
Which now leads me to Call of Duty and Battlefield, these are the highest refined forms of art known to man!. . . . . .in my opinion haha!
I think you should play Call of duty first, because it is a singleplayer game, and i know that before you are sent out into the field of battle you will go through a tutorial in the game where they guide you through the basic movements and actions hehe. And always before you start playing a new game, everyone goes into the "controls" menu and just takes a quick look in order to see what controls are important to remember :P and usually you will change quite a few of the controls in order to make it more comfortable to your style of playing :P
And i am so excited you are going to give my area of expertise a try :D hopefully you will enjoy it as much as i do haha!
And yes i remember you were suggesting industrial designer, it is still an option and i am still gathering as many suggestions as possible ^^
Thanks!
Lotsa Love

And to be honest i agree with you farfar, i try to keep a distance from religious extremists, but one of the guys was really nice and told me that if i feel uncomfortable he'd help me leave the place, but i'm very open minded so i figured i may as well sit through the thing and see what it's like hehe. I'm not in a hurry to go back though ;)
As for the Ballet, i believe Ballet is an interest for a select few. . . especially in this time era, Not many nowadays have a sense for the old fashion arts haha our minds hve been corrupted by television haha!
Which now leads me to Call of Duty and Battlefield, these are the highest refined forms of art known to man!. . . . . .in my opinion haha!
I think you should play Call of duty first, because it is a singleplayer game, and i know that before you are sent out into the field of battle you will go through a tutorial in the game where they guide you through the basic movements and actions hehe. And always before you start playing a new game, everyone goes into the "controls" menu and just takes a quick look in order to see what controls are important to remember :P and usually you will change quite a few of the controls in order to make it more comfortable to your style of playing :P
And i am so excited you are going to give my area of expertise a try :D hopefully you will enjoy it as much as i do haha!
And yes i remember you were suggesting industrial designer, it is still an option and i am still gathering as many suggestions as possible ^^
Thanks!
Lotsa Love

Extremists
Hola!
Well it's really late and i wanna go to sleep, but i haven't done much today. . . or well not much diverse things hehe.
I met up with Bryan, my distant cuisine through Jean.
We went to a church thing with like 100's of youth. . . . . and it was so extremist. . . Everyone was speaking in tongues and singing with their hands in the air, jumping up and down. . . .. . . . . man. . . . .
Anyway, i got a long well with some of the guys and afterward we went to an internet cafe where i completely slaughtered their asses in computer games hahaha XD
Well. . .it's been a very. . . .different day. . . .
Oh and i can't believe i'm missing out on the event of the year. . . ."ZoukOut"
Everyone is going, 30 000 people on sentosa beach, EVERYONE is going, models, jeans cuisines. . . freakin everyone!
But not me :( sigh sigh sigh. . . . probably going to be one hell ova party >.<
Ah well. . . i'm really tired and i wanna go to bed now :P
Lotsa Love

Lena
Yeh :D i'll go look for the hab theory! and yeh if i stay one more year, i'll definitely get to go to Japan and Hong kong :D that would be sooo crazy. . .
Farfar
HYELLO!. . . i dunno i've never seen the spelling before but. . . it's how i answer my phone nowadays haha XD
Tell Nima i wish i could've watched, and i hope you had a good rest ;)
Dad
HAha cummon! i've already done all that :D
I've constantly been tryign to figure out what i wanna study in uni ever since andra ring :P
Many times i find myself lying in bed wondering what i wanna do with my life :P
And every person i meet that is above 20, i ask what they are studying or what they have studied in university. . .. it's probably my most asked question!
And i've talked with lots of people about businesses and stuff, some person wanted to open their on clothing botique and is now networking through modelling, some guy wanted to open an agency. . . . so many options >.<
Farmor
I think you nailed the dreams i had when i ran out that door XD
During that time i had no plans of work for a loooong time hahaha!
I had an extremely pleasurable summer. . . in fact i never even got that feeling of boredom you always get at the end of the summer. . ..
Buuuut eventually i began feeling a bit of "Angest" because i felt like i was literally doing nothing. . . .and time kinda felt wasted. . . .so then the modelling oportunity presented itself and i felt. . . . well i'd be a freakin idiot not to do it hehe. . .
And ofc i miss St. Essingen. . . . and ofc i miss all of you guys. . . and i miss lying in a bed with a warm cover on me. . . .here the freakin airconditioning is so random. . .15 minutes of cold, 15 minutes of heat. . .. sometimes i have a lot of trouble sleeping hehe. . .
Fredrik. . .. is amazing. . . .i don't know how he does it. . . but that boy would probably be one of the last survivors of a nuclear winter. . . .so if the world ever comes to that. . .rest assure that the future of humanity is safe in the hands of fredrik bimark XD
Lotsa love to you all!

Mysterious man!
Hyello!
Let's see here, yesterday i had a show for Breguet watches.. . . . wait till i tell you how much some of the stuff we were wearing costed XD
Anyway, it was a late day, so i got all the sleep i needed! At 3pm we were to report at Raffles Hotel, . . . or well the guys were to report at that time, i don't know when the girls had to be here :P
Anyway, i walked to the Luna lounge or whatever it was called, but nobody was there. . . except one of the female models who was sleeping on a couch, i decided not to wake her up hehe.
I walked around for a bit because i was still early, trying to find where hair and makeup was, but without sucess i returned back to the lounge place.
The girl had awoken and we started talking a while, then her agency called and we were told they had changed location :P So we walked around searching for some suite, and we finally found it.
Big chandaleres and what not were hanging from the ceiling and it was just a big empty square room hehe.
Girls were already getting their makeup and hair done so i just sat down and waited.
When it was my turn i they did their thing. . . and uuuugh i had more gel in my hair than during the Robinsons show. . . . . it was sooooooo slicked to the side, felt like a helmet haha.
Anyway, we spent most of the day in this room, chatting and relaxing and what not. There was one girl from texas who was dropdead gorgeous.
After a while we were told to go down for the rehearsal, we were supposed to do highfashion poses. . . . which made me nervous because i dunno what the hell highfashion poses look like haha. The girls were all exagerating poses looking crazy and stuff haha (They didn't do this during the show though ;))
We had some fun with the "Highfashion poses" haha like us guys would do something really gay and like put the hand over the face and stuff. . . .. hahaha it was stupid XD
After the rehearsal we went back to the suite where makeup and stuff had been done. I was still the only guy who had, had his hair slicked, the other guys hadn't gotten anything done yet so i felt like an idiot haha.
The only time we left the room after this, was when i followed one of the guys downstairs to a tiny shop where he bought something to drink.
We finally got dinnerboxes as well, when they yelled food i was so happy cause i was starving, i was hoping for a nice buffet because i saw some buffet looking stuff outside the room a while earlier. . .. . . isntead we got some wierd asian food. . . with the tiny little fishies and stuff. Quite a few of the models didn't eat at all haha, I ate ofc ;)
Eventually we were told to get dressed, boys had black evening suits, girls had black evening gowns. (Btw, we were 4 guys (Ken (Japan), Thomas (Australia) and Bobby (America)) and 8 girls)
So, appart from the slick hair (Girls had Marie antionette-like hair) and black outfits, girls had black gloves that stretched to their elbows and a net like fabric covering their eyes. Guys had masks on, only covering the eyes, a la phantom of the opera style :P
We were told to look friendly. . .. yet mysterious. . .. .
Well it was time to go downstairs, the first part of the job was to just stand along the walls in a hall where the guests would be walking through. Ofc we had to have "High fashion" poses. . . it was very classy haha XD I had to change pose several times because i got tired of having my hand on the wall, or leaning against the wall or whatever i did :P
We had to stand there for quite sometime before we eventually got called to the watch botique where we were handed jewellery and watches. . . .
Alright. . .get this. .. .
First we had to sign a paper confirming which pieces we were to be wearing.
My watch, was made of gold, price? 1,128,600 kr. . . .
One guy's watch was worth more than 4,500,000 kr
One girl was wearing jewellery and and watches worth more than 13,500,000 kr
. . .. . . wow. . . .
We were all wearing stuff for more than 1 million krs. . . .nervous? NEJ DA!
We had to wait for quite some time in the botique before it was time to do the show.
We all walked together to the backstage, took our positions behind the curtains and awaited that moment where we first get introduced to the crowd.
Everyone was sitting at round tables eating fancy dinner and what not, the stage was jsut a platform in the middle of the room, camera's and TV's were set up here and there, lights were shining in our eyes. . . very dramatic ;)
Well the curtains went up, quick pose, then the first group walked to the platform in the center of the room and the two remaining groups (I was group 2) walked down a pair of steps and posed in the entrance.
Then after group 1 had left the platform, group 2 (That's me and 3 girls) walked to the platform.
We posed in ways showing off the pieces we were wearing, i found myself posing in the same way several times. . . . not much variation for a watch now is there haha.
On the platform we were to switch positions with the person standing on the opposite side, then switch positions by walking clockwise around the round platform, then switch again before we finally left the platform.
After the platform we were to walk to the front of the platform and stand there and pose until the 3rd group had finished on the platform.
While i was standing there i could see on the TV that they were filming my watch, so i kinda angled it toward the camera and it was pretty cool haha.
Well when the third group was finished all groups walked up onto the platform and waited for the announcer to say "Thank you models" then we were to walk around to every table and mingle with the guests and show the watches to everyone who wanted to see them close up. Everyone wanted to see my watch, in my opinion it was one of the nicest ones, i liked how it was clear and you could see the instruments moving and spinning inside the watch. It was called "Tradition Fusee Tourbillon" (We had to memorize the price and name for when the guests asked)
Sometimes the guests would ask me stuff about the watch which i had no idea, like how it functions and if it had this part in it and blablabla haha
After I had walked to every table, i exited and went to give the watch back, then i walked upstairs and changed (Ruffed up the gross slicked hair as well)
Then i left with Ken and 3 of the girls for a club called Le Noir, i haven't been out for like 3 weeks now so that was nice, i gave champ a call as well and he joined us.
Alright and now for today's events!
I had 1 fittign and 1 casting.
The fitting was for Raffles Institute or whatever it's called, it was the same people that organized the IKEA show, this time i was to be a model during some graduation thing.
There is supposed to be 2 shows apparently so i fitted a lot of different clothes hehe.
(Btw i'm getting 500singdollars for the watch show i did)
After the fitting i went back to the GEOFF studios (I've been here quite a few times now, my absolute first casting was in GEOFF studios)
Apparently, this was a followup casting for a casting i had done a few days ago. The clients wanted a closer look at me and it was now narrowed down to me and one other guy. There were also a few girls for the casting, some were really cute.
The casting first involved having to take my shirt off (Shit the other guy was really ripped. . . and here i am with my less superior physique hehe)
But they seemed alright, the clients were quite a few of em, like 8 people sitting at a table looking and commenting me :P
Then after that, i had to stand with each of the girls with our foreheads touching and nose almost touching. . . nice. . .
After quite sometime i was finally done and i went home :D
I also found out i got a fitting for a Diesel show on monday, so that's cool ^^ hope i get to wear some cool clothes hehe
Alright Lotsa love
/Alex
PS.
Farfar
Stora Essingen is the best place in the world to me, all my friends live so close and it's like our own little retreat hehe
And yes i have considered continueing modelling for another year, the agency suggested it as well, and if i do it one more year, i will be going to hong kong and probably even Japan!
I figure that this is a once in a lifetime chance, whereas school can wait for another year. . . but i'm not sure, it would be nice to just get the bloody education over and done with hehe.
I was talking with one of the australian models, and apparently it might be free studying in australia for swedish students! so that's interesting, gotta check that up when i get access to fast internet :P
Oh and, i highly recommend Call of duty 2 (COD2) to you, because wow it really is amazing how they captured the feeling of WWII!
Mom
Hahaha you dared jump into some random guy's car?
And yeh singaporeans i've noticed are generally very friendly hehe.
Can you please tell dad to send an email telling me how to change the flight tickets?
Lots love to you all! miss yous

Finally a Portfolio. . .
Hejsan!
Alright, next on the agenda was the photoshoot on monday hehe (Except for various castings here and there)
Well. . .. i was to be there at 9.30am, so i had to wake up at 7am, not too bad considering what i've been through the past few days :P
Anyway, the cabdriver had some trouble finding the place (700 Beach Road. . . 700!)
But eventually we found it. As usual there was a guard on the first floor which i had to approach before i was let in (Sometimes the elevators. . . or well most of the times, the elevators need key cards to function. . . hence you have to go through the guard on the first floor :P)
I went upstairs, it was pretty much like all the other magazine/fashion offices. Just lots of cubicals spread out and a reception at the entrance :P
I went to the bathroom for a while (Did not spegla mig sjalv :P had a cap on anyway so was nothing to fix even if i wanted to XD)
Then when i came out i walked back through the hall until i ran into a rather large lady. As usual I see the person's lips move but i have no idea what they are saying. . .. until i remove my mp3 earphones and ask them kindly to repeat what they just said. . . this is what happens everytime someone starts talking to me. . . .looong waits and trips are just too boring to go through without music pumping in your ears! :P
Anyway, turns out she was one of the people that would be supervising the shoot (The shoot was for NS magazine btw, i was supposed to do the fashion bit, Jemmy was supposed to do the fitness bit. . . that guy is ripped as hell hehe)
The lady led me into a room, it was a big studio with, lights, camera man, background paper. . . the typical instruments :P
She told me to sit down and wait on the couch, which i did. . . i picked up an issue of men's health and read about how stretching benefits your workout. . .. . i was well acquainted with the Cover model (Ken from Japan), and the guy who was the model for the stretching information :P
After a bit of a wait, 2-3 more people arrived, 2 stylists and one girl who was also a stylist but had gone to the wrong room so she left hehe
I was told to come and get my makeup and hair done, ofcourse the guy doing it was gay. . . no surprise there, man there are a LOT of homosexuals in singapore! Not only i have noticed that, many of the other models are surprised as well haha, so i guess if yer gay this is the place to be XD
Well. . . the makeup was nothing special. . . very light, barely noticeable. . . if noticeable at all. . .. and the hair. . . .. dammit. .. . i hate letting the stylists fix my hair because they all suckass. . .. hahahah quite bluntly they all suck ass. . .. NO ONE knows how to handle my hair :P
When he was done. . .. i just looked in the mirror and was like .. . . .. ". . .. ". . . . it looked just like it did when i had first removed my cap. . .. *sigh*
Anyway, everyone went out for a smoking break when i had changed into my first outfit so i was alone in the room for like five minutes. . . i did my best to fix my hair so it looked atleast a bit presentable hahaha XD. . . now i'm starting to sound gay ^^
Anyway, my first outfit was supposed to look a bit nerdy, so i had sunglasses, a red wristband, a white shirt, red tie, brown suit shoes and gray pants. It looked pretty good anyway.
But man. . .. the photoshoot. . . ugh. . . .they wanted me to run in from the side, they wanted me to launch myself forward. . . i just felt like a friggin idiot hahaha XD i don't think those pictures turned out well XD. . . ah well time will tell hehe
The second outfit was a puma sweater, jeans i think it was, and puma shoes. . . . this looked kinda stupid.
But this shoot was a bit more fun, i was to look as if i were balancing on something, so i just stood on one leg in a few different ways, this time everyone was laughing and it was a lot more fun than the first outfit :P
Ah well, that was it! it was so quick, from 9.30 to 11.30. . . that's all it took :P
I thanked everyone and left!
After this. . .. i don't remember exactly what i did but i ended up in the gym anyway.
Well, today it's wednesday. . . .i've been to a few castings and done a fitting for a show i'm going to have tomorrow. . . .i'm gonna get paid 500 dollars for that show XD
Wow. . .. today was just. . . . UGH. . .. it was raining so heavily all day long, and i was wet and it was uncomfortable and just pleh. . . ew. . . haha
But i went to a casting for Vasceline (Or whatever it was called :P some cream that would make your skin fairer. . . . only in asia they wanna look more white haha)
for that casting i had to be topless and get my pictures taken in a few given poses.
Then at the same place i had a casting for UOB as well, i think it was a banking thing. So i had my suit on and had to do some given poses as well .. . . Man . . .. it sucks. . . not the castings, they were fun, but it sucks that i'm so young. I have sooo many jobs where they say i look too young >.< sometimes they accept me anyway and tell me to grow a stubble and stuff hehe, that's what i'm doing at the moment for tomorrow's show. . . . but shit i wish i were a bit older so i could do more magazine jobs ^^
All the models are like 21 - 27 years old, most are probably 25 . ..
Ah well!
After those two castings i went to my next casting on the other side of the planet. . .. i hate all these travelling distances. . . and it gets expensive because i have to pay for buss, mrt, sometimes cabs. . . ah well, to make money you have to spend money right? ;)
Well, i was sitting on the bus on the way to my third casting, and it was raining really heavily outside and i was thinking shit. . .. i was pretty worried about getting wet because i had my suit jacket folded in my backpack. . . and i didn't want that wet. . .. i didn't want to be soaking wet ofcourse ;)
But what do ya know!
I walk up to the driver of the bus, ask him nicely if the next stop is the closest stop to Marina Library, sitting closeby are two elderly ladies who had been chatting with the driver. . . . .When i got my answer from the driver i thanked him and smiled, walked to the door which was close by and waited for the next bus stop. . .. . then, from nowhere one of the old ladies holds an umbrella infront of me and tells me to take it. . . .. i was shocked! i'm like. . .. "What. .. . nooo hahah nooooo no nono i can't take you umbrella! thanks but i just can't take it haha" She insisted, i refused, she insisted and eventually. . . .i walked off the bus with an umbrella hahahhaha XD pretty old, but hey. . . keeps me from getting wet right! . . . man i'm telling you, wierd coinsidences like this jsut keep happening every now and then, Thank you God! seriously. . .
When i got off the bus, the bus driver honked and all three of them (The driver and the 2 old ladies) smiled and waved goodbye haha. . . . nice. . .
Well i continued my journey out in the rain to the casting place, which was closeby luckily enough. I walk in say hello to the recpetionist, sit down, see another young guy walk in, i say hello, he gets called into the next room to do his casting, a girl comes sits down on the couch, i start talking, she speaks terrible english, the receptionist chips in on the conversation, it goes quiet, i lean back and wait in silence, another brazilian guy comes into the room, we greet eachother, the two brazillians leave, i get called into the next room for my turn. . .. . hehe
So i change into my swimming shorts (Maybe i should've brought my tight little swimming speedo's instead hahah XD)
The guy takes some shots of me in pre-defined poses, and i'm done, quick casting.
I walk out, see that the first guy is waiting for me, we say farewell and start walking to the bus together. At the busstop we meet the two brazilians again, we all take the same bus, i end up in the middle chatting with both parties, i get the guy from singapore's email, he invites me out on saturday. . . i dunno it was some event. Trevligt folk. . . .all of em. . .
i meet so many people here haha!
Alright. . . well after that i went to the agency and talked a bit with Yuki who was there, she's leaving tonight :( which is too bad because she's really cute haha.
When she leaves, i sit down infront of the computer, take care of some facebook stuff, take care of the Akelius forsakrings bolag thingy, and take care of some other business :P Then i take farewell of the agency people and head to chinatown. FINALLY i get my pictures from the 2 test shoots, i'm going to print out some copies for you guys and send them with Cathy as well ;)
The pictures look a lot better on high res A4 paper hehe. So now i finally have a portfolio i'm not ashamed of showing the client XD maybe i'll get some more magazine jobs now :D
The people in the photoshop seemed happy to see me haha, they were all smiling and waving goodbye when i left. . . i like singapore XD
Well i walked through the dystra rain which had still not subsided. . . . . .
Took the MRT to the gym, an hour later i was out of there and went to the City hall foodcourt for some chicken riiiice!. . . . .doesn't seem like it was enough though. . .. hungry as shiet right now. . . . so i'm going to go make some sandwiches and watch southpark before i go to bed ;)
I have to report 3pm for the show or whatever it is tomorrow, so no early morning tomorrow :D
Alright. . .well that about sums it up. . .and now i've caught up with the present time :D
Well hope you guys are well!
Lots of love

Why don't you call anymore :P

Alright, next on the agenda was the photoshoot on monday hehe (Except for various castings here and there)
Well. . .. i was to be there at 9.30am, so i had to wake up at 7am, not too bad considering what i've been through the past few days :P
Anyway, the cabdriver had some trouble finding the place (700 Beach Road. . . 700!)
But eventually we found it. As usual there was a guard on the first floor which i had to approach before i was let in (Sometimes the elevators. . . or well most of the times, the elevators need key cards to function. . . hence you have to go through the guard on the first floor :P)
I went upstairs, it was pretty much like all the other magazine/fashion offices. Just lots of cubicals spread out and a reception at the entrance :P
I went to the bathroom for a while (Did not spegla mig sjalv :P had a cap on anyway so was nothing to fix even if i wanted to XD)
Then when i came out i walked back through the hall until i ran into a rather large lady. As usual I see the person's lips move but i have no idea what they are saying. . .. until i remove my mp3 earphones and ask them kindly to repeat what they just said. . . this is what happens everytime someone starts talking to me. . . .looong waits and trips are just too boring to go through without music pumping in your ears! :P
Anyway, turns out she was one of the people that would be supervising the shoot (The shoot was for NS magazine btw, i was supposed to do the fashion bit, Jemmy was supposed to do the fitness bit. . . that guy is ripped as hell hehe)
The lady led me into a room, it was a big studio with, lights, camera man, background paper. . . the typical instruments :P
She told me to sit down and wait on the couch, which i did. . . i picked up an issue of men's health and read about how stretching benefits your workout. . .. . i was well acquainted with the Cover model (Ken from Japan), and the guy who was the model for the stretching information :P
After a bit of a wait, 2-3 more people arrived, 2 stylists and one girl who was also a stylist but had gone to the wrong room so she left hehe
I was told to come and get my makeup and hair done, ofcourse the guy doing it was gay. . . no surprise there, man there are a LOT of homosexuals in singapore! Not only i have noticed that, many of the other models are surprised as well haha, so i guess if yer gay this is the place to be XD
Well. . . the makeup was nothing special. . . very light, barely noticeable. . . if noticeable at all. . .. and the hair. . . .. dammit. .. . i hate letting the stylists fix my hair because they all suckass. . .. hahahah quite bluntly they all suck ass. . .. NO ONE knows how to handle my hair :P
When he was done. . .. i just looked in the mirror and was like .. . . .. ". . .. ". . . . it looked just like it did when i had first removed my cap. . .. *sigh*
Anyway, everyone went out for a smoking break when i had changed into my first outfit so i was alone in the room for like five minutes. . . i did my best to fix my hair so it looked atleast a bit presentable hahaha XD. . . now i'm starting to sound gay ^^
Anyway, my first outfit was supposed to look a bit nerdy, so i had sunglasses, a red wristband, a white shirt, red tie, brown suit shoes and gray pants. It looked pretty good anyway.
But man. . .. the photoshoot. . . ugh. . . .they wanted me to run in from the side, they wanted me to launch myself forward. . . i just felt like a friggin idiot hahaha XD i don't think those pictures turned out well XD. . . ah well time will tell hehe
The second outfit was a puma sweater, jeans i think it was, and puma shoes. . . . this looked kinda stupid.
But this shoot was a bit more fun, i was to look as if i were balancing on something, so i just stood on one leg in a few different ways, this time everyone was laughing and it was a lot more fun than the first outfit :P
Ah well, that was it! it was so quick, from 9.30 to 11.30. . . that's all it took :P
I thanked everyone and left!
After this. . .. i don't remember exactly what i did but i ended up in the gym anyway.
Well, today it's wednesday. . . .i've been to a few castings and done a fitting for a show i'm going to have tomorrow. . . .i'm gonna get paid 500 dollars for that show XD
Wow. . .. today was just. . . . UGH. . .. it was raining so heavily all day long, and i was wet and it was uncomfortable and just pleh. . . ew. . . haha
But i went to a casting for Vasceline (Or whatever it was called :P some cream that would make your skin fairer. . . . only in asia they wanna look more white haha)
for that casting i had to be topless and get my pictures taken in a few given poses.
Then at the same place i had a casting for UOB as well, i think it was a banking thing. So i had my suit on and had to do some given poses as well .. . . Man . . .. it sucks. . . not the castings, they were fun, but it sucks that i'm so young. I have sooo many jobs where they say i look too young >.< sometimes they accept me anyway and tell me to grow a stubble and stuff hehe, that's what i'm doing at the moment for tomorrow's show. . . . but shit i wish i were a bit older so i could do more magazine jobs ^^
All the models are like 21 - 27 years old, most are probably 25 . ..
Ah well!
After those two castings i went to my next casting on the other side of the planet. . .. i hate all these travelling distances. . . and it gets expensive because i have to pay for buss, mrt, sometimes cabs. . . ah well, to make money you have to spend money right? ;)
Well, i was sitting on the bus on the way to my third casting, and it was raining really heavily outside and i was thinking shit. . .. i was pretty worried about getting wet because i had my suit jacket folded in my backpack. . . and i didn't want that wet. . .. i didn't want to be soaking wet ofcourse ;)

"What. .. . nooo hahah nooooo no nono i can't take you umbrella! thanks but i just can't take it haha" She insisted, i refused, she insisted and eventually. . . .i walked off the bus with an umbrella hahahhaha XD pretty old, but hey. . . keeps me from getting wet right! . . . man i'm telling you, wierd coinsidences like this jsut keep happening every now and then, Thank you God! seriously. . .
When i got off the bus, the bus driver honked and all three of them (The driver and the 2 old ladies) smiled and waved goodbye haha. . . . nice. . .

So i change into my swimming shorts (Maybe i should've brought my tight little swimming speedo's instead hahah XD)
The guy takes some shots of me in pre-defined poses, and i'm done, quick casting.
I walk out, see that the first guy is waiting for me, we say farewell and start walking to the bus together. At the busstop we meet the two brazilians again, we all take the same bus, i end up in the middle chatting with both parties, i get the guy from singapore's email, he invites me out on saturday. . . i dunno it was some event. Trevligt folk. . . .all of em. . .
i meet so many people here haha!
Alright. . . well after that i went to the agency and talked a bit with Yuki who was there, she's leaving tonight :( which is too bad because she's really cute haha.
When she leaves, i sit down infront of the computer, take care of some facebook stuff, take care of the Akelius forsakrings bolag thingy, and take care of some other business :P Then i take farewell of the agency people and head to chinatown. FINALLY i get my pictures from the 2 test shoots, i'm going to print out some copies for you guys and send them with Cathy as well ;)

Well i walked through the dystra rain which had still not subsided. . . . . .
Took the MRT to the gym, an hour later i was out of there and went to the City hall foodcourt for some chicken riiiice!. . . . .doesn't seem like it was enough though. . .. hungry as shiet right now. . . . so i'm going to go make some sandwiches and watch southpark before i go to bed ;)

New Photos! and IKEA
Heeey!
Alright first of all i've added some new pictures to Facebook, it's from the second testshoot, and i'm attempting to load up some pics from a few shows i did. . . btu haven't succeeded yet because the internet sucks donkey balls. . .. . . . so if they're there you;ll know i succeeded. . . otherwise failure ;)
Anyways!
IKEA show hahahaha
Alright anyways, i went to sleep at a mdel housing the night before. . .. i slept in the same room as Bruno. . . . and well bruno is crazy. . . in a more or less positive way i'd say, but the bed i was to sleep on was soooo fkin dirty hahahha XD
I walked into the girls room and snatched one of their blankets (Three of the girls had left, only one was still staying there, Yuki) Rolled into it so that i wouldn't have any contact with the bed hahaha. . . anyway i got like 3 hours sleep that night maximum. . . . had to wake up at 5am and well. . . i just couldn't fall asleep in that bed XD
Hur som helst!
The next day i woke up, took a shower in a strange bathroom, ate some cakes i had bought the day before. . . . and then called a cab to come pick me and 2 girls up from the apartments.
Yuki got done, i had to rush her a bit though because i saw the cab waiting downstairs. . .. when we got downstairs i called the other girl who sounded like she was still in bed. . ..
We waited. . . she didn't come. . . .
I called again, she said she'll come down soon. . .
The cab driver started getting pissed, some basterd lady came and said "Oh if they aren't going i can take the cab!" I was about to shove my hairless legs up her old ass when she said that. . ..
Anyway i started getting pissed so i told the cab driver
Me - "No nononononooo we want the cab, Yuki get in the car"Yuki - "But what about the other gir. . . "
Me - "No we can't wait get in the car! if she doesn't come down NOW we're leaving without her"I opened the door for Yuki, and gave the other girl one last phone call
Me - "Hey, if you don't come down NOW, we're leaving without you"Vlada - "I'm comming i'm comming! i'm in the elevator"
So she made it anyway haha, was getting a bit worried for a while there actually :P But see i can be harsh when i want to XD kinda felt like i tog i for hart iaf :P men vissa modeller. .. . behover tas med hardhandskarna ibland hahahhahah XD seriost. .. . de kan inte halla tiden. . .. alla kommer sa jakla sent hela tiden :P
Ah well, the cab drive was a long one, so luckily we were three or the bill would've been a lot higher :P
We were the first ones there. . . I just kinda led the two girls into the building and started searching for the place. They sat down in one escalator, i decided to go check the other escalator and there the stage was so i returned to them and we jsut sat there half asleep until the others came hehe.
Walking into the IKEA store. . . it just lit me up haha i was smiling a huge smile, seeing Daim, Bilar, Hart Brod, Kalles. . .. you name it. It felt sooo good to walk there haha
Ah well the stage. . .. well you can check the pics and you'll see the stage :P
People started comming in (Models) and finally we started the rehearsal. . . I was the only male model there :P So i went last in the sequence and had it a bit different, apparently i'm on TV just before the news every night now until "Fashion something" ends. . . .can't be fashion week because that's already over. . . i have no idea what it is.
Anyway the sequence was very simple, was kinda wierd though, because we had lots of female designers watching us, and camera men and shit. . . . it was just a rehearsal. . . .at freakin 7am in the morning. . . ah well :P
One girl came when the rehearsal was like 3/4 finished because she had gone to the wrong IKEA (There are two IKEA's in singapore)
Daniel was sooo pissed off, "YOU ALWAYS COME LATE TO EVERY F*CKING SHOW!"
i was like. . . .whoa . . .. haha, i know very well by now that he does NOT pardon late models XD
Anyway, we took a bus to the second IKEA (The smaller one), i slept the whole way there.
This IKEA was open, and people were walking around already, popular swedish furniture ^^ and meatballs ofcourse :P
Anyway, this stage was even easier. . . just walk back and forth pretty much :P
Well then after the rehearsal we got a little break. . . i spent some time chatting with Daniel and an announcer guy, i then spent the remaining time outside with a girl from poland (The poor girl who came late haha, she looks so cute and innocent. . . but man she's into the motorcycles and stuff. . . she's apparently very smart as well, went to some bigshot school in poland. . . .)
Then we headed back to the "Backstage" or whatever it was. . . .
There i saw that the girls had already started with makeup and stuff. . .. and i also saw that the "Snack" they said we were gonna get, was infact a tiny buffet hahah XD
So i jsut started chowing down lotsa food and enjoying my morning. . .. still tired as hell though, it was the kind of tired where your eyes sting constantly :P
I drank like 4-5 cups of coffee. . .. didn't help at all. . .
I spent a lot of time chatting with Yuki, the Polish girl, and my designer whom i found was pretty cute anyway. . . .
Well Yuki and the polish girl ended up having to do makeup so i talked a lot with my designer, who was also the only designer that would appear on stage during the sequences (Because she was the only one with a male model, and because i was Prince charming. . .turned into a prince after the princess (The designer) kisses the frog. . . so she had to follow me out, kiss the frog and turn it into a mantel and put it on me haha)
We got along great i'd have to say, i like her a lot!
Anyway, time for my makeup, it was very simple. . . i'm glad. . .after that i ended up talking with a girl from Hungary until the show started. (Her outfit was crazy, was made from material that was almost see through, and if that wasn't enough, it was urringat som fan ahhahaha)
Oh no, wait my bad, before the show we had to go downstairs and get our picture taken in our outfits by a professional photografer. It was kinda wierd, because by now the store was crowded already. . . and the place where the photos would be taken were like. . . .right in the middle of the entrance/exit of IKEA hahahha so there were just heaps of people watching while you took the pictures XD
Anyway, after another short break the first show finally started. . . it went really well. . . it was simple. . . my designer was so nervous though so i had to calm her down haha.
I said don't worry, we'll be going out together, i gave her my arm which she locked with hers and then we started by walking onto the escalator that would slowly take us down to the stage, then i let go of her at the beginning of the catwalk and walked my sequence (Just back and forth), i was carrying a stuffed animal (Frog), a stave with a tiny frog on top, i had on a greenish shirt, and i had my own pants on. When i came back to where the designer was standing (Her name was Evelyin, so i'll just continue by calling her Eve) i handed her the frog, she kissed it and started turning it into a cape. . .. . this took some time so i kinda felt stupid standing there posing with my stave while waiting for her to finish turning the frog into a cape haha, and it wasn't any less wierd becuase of the fact that TV camera's and photocameras were flashing at me from all directions :P
Finally she did it and put it on me, then i did my sequence, grabbed her arm and we left up the escalator again hehe.
Then we did our finale, all the designers joined us this time.
Then we went back to the backstage, got some group photos taken, and i changed back to my normal outfit.
Tis was a fun show, also. . . afterwards Eve came and told me i had some fans so i had to get my picture taken with like 8 different girls. . . . nice. . .
Oh btw, there were some swedish people there, they were the managers of IKEA so i spoke a bit with them as well hehe.
Well after the private photosession for my. . . hrm .. . "Fans". . . i walked outside together with the Polish girl and talked a bit, i went back to the backstage, grabbed a lunchbox and sat next to the hungarian girl and talked for while, then i retreated to a chair and tried to fall asleep :P
Anyway, time came for us to take the bus to the larger IKEA.
Once we got there they showed us where the makeup would be but we didn't have to do that for another 2 hours, so me, and 3 of the girls went to a giant shopping mall or whatever it was opposite of IKEA. One girl was singaporian (I think), one was probably from brazil. . . .maybe two of em were. . .. ah who cares.
Anwyay we walked around there for a while, headed back for makeup. . . .i put my head on my arms on a table and tried to sleep (There was also free daim, pepparkakor and ballerina kex ^^ MMMMMMM)
eventually it was my turn. . . and again it was very simple :P
Well i got my outfit on, got some pictures taken by photografers, then they escorted me and the polish girl down to the backstage. . . . . . .It was only me and her in there for like 20 minutes :P
We farted around and just. . .acted like kids haha
Anyway, eventually more of the models came in and before ya knew it we were lining up in order from first to last. But before the show started someone came in backstage and said someone was looking for Alex. . . so i walked out wondering who the hell it was. . .. turns out it was the Embassador of Sweden in Singapore and China hahahha so i spoke a bit with him, he was very pleasant and happy haha
And then the show started :P
When it came to my turn, i got an idea and quickly spoke with Daniel and suggested a bit of a change in the sequence he had given me and Eve. I suggested that i'd do it a bit differentely so that it wouldn't look so retarded when i just stand there and smile while Eve frantically tries to turn the frog into a cape haha.
Basically it would mean that i'd be out on stage a bit longer but i'd be doing more, while she changes the frog. . .. Daniel "SOOOO CLEVEEEEEER!" hahahahhaha so we went with that, real like last second change XD
Anyway, the show went well and it was time to go home. Since we were out in the middle of fkin nowhere, me, oen of the makeup girls and the hungarian model took a bus together to the nearest MRT station. . . then took an MRT ride that took like an hour .. . . btu at least i was sitting in the middle of two nice chicas ^^ i'd say it was one pretty freakin awesome day haha. . . .although tiring as hell. . . oh wait my day wasn't over haha
I met up with the relatives and ate a huge dinner at Susan's house. . .. just like we do every saturday! I also got christmas presents hahaha, en osthyvel, en jacka, en tshirt, en mousepad ooooch. . .. . det var allt tror jag. . . omtanksamt ^^
I also borrowed home some VCD's, which me and Cathy would spend the whole of sunday jsut watching haha. . . so lazy the day after because i got so little sleep :P
WEll. . great day :D i'll tell you about the photoshoot tomorrow ;)
Btw, i've added i think it was 27 new photos to the facebook album ;) enjoy!
The Bali photo's will have to wait till i'm at Wiley's place :P
Lotsa Love!
Alex
PS. Mom, i had a fitting today for another Daniel Boey show, and i saw sabrina there again, remembering you wanted to get contact with her i told her that you got really excited and started reminiscing about the good old days when you used to hang out with her. She was soooo happy and i asked for her email and i got her card. . . .so i'll send her contact information through email ;)
And the agency takes 20% of what i earn. Krya pa dig!
Farfar
Life is good haha :D And ofcourse i haven't forgotten about studies, i've figured out that i wanna study in sweden, BUT i wanna take an abroad program, so that i can go abroad at least one or two years ;)
Still not entirely certain about what i wanna study though >.< shit shit shit shiiiiit!
I am also aware that i have to change the airtickets very soon.
Btw I went to the agency yesterday and i was hungering for japan, so i told Jane "Man. . . do you think i could work in Japan? that would be sooo freakin awesome"
Jane responded "Oh you want?! Sure you could!"
. . . . . i almost died. . . . .wow. . . if i go modelling in japan. . . . i think i will cry myself to bed every night. . .. . happy tears. .. she also said that she'll prolly be sending be down to hong kong for like 2 weeks or something just to send me to castings and such.
Hmmm what else. . .. right the Malaysia trip with Johan is confirmed, buuuut today during a casting with Jemmy the agency called and said the pruposed me for a huge TV campaign. . .so if i get that i'll have to stay ;)
well that about sums it up folks!
Oh and i also just got scouted on Facebook by the same agency Sven is working for in hong kong. . .. how rad is that? XD
Gnight Love!
Alright first of all i've added some new pictures to Facebook, it's from the second testshoot, and i'm attempting to load up some pics from a few shows i did. . . btu haven't succeeded yet because the internet sucks donkey balls. . .. . . . so if they're there you;ll know i succeeded. . . otherwise failure ;)
Anyways!

Alright anyways, i went to sleep at a mdel housing the night before. . .. i slept in the same room as Bruno. . . . and well bruno is crazy. . . in a more or less positive way i'd say, but the bed i was to sleep on was soooo fkin dirty hahahha XD
I walked into the girls room and snatched one of their blankets (Three of the girls had left, only one was still staying there, Yuki) Rolled into it so that i wouldn't have any contact with the bed hahaha. . . anyway i got like 3 hours sleep that night maximum. . . . had to wake up at 5am and well. . . i just couldn't fall asleep in that bed XD
Hur som helst!
The next day i woke up, took a shower in a strange bathroom, ate some cakes i had bought the day before. . . . and then called a cab to come pick me and 2 girls up from the apartments.
Yuki got done, i had to rush her a bit though because i saw the cab waiting downstairs. . .. when we got downstairs i called the other girl who sounded like she was still in bed. . ..
We waited. . . she didn't come. . . .
I called again, she said she'll come down soon. . .
The cab driver started getting pissed, some basterd lady came and said "Oh if they aren't going i can take the cab!" I was about to shove my hairless legs up her old ass when she said that. . ..
Anyway i started getting pissed so i told the cab driver
Me - "No nononononooo we want the cab, Yuki get in the car"Yuki - "But what about the other gir. . . "
Me - "No we can't wait get in the car! if she doesn't come down NOW we're leaving without her"I opened the door for Yuki, and gave the other girl one last phone call
Me - "Hey, if you don't come down NOW, we're leaving without you"Vlada - "I'm comming i'm comming! i'm in the elevator"
So she made it anyway haha, was getting a bit worried for a while there actually :P But see i can be harsh when i want to XD kinda felt like i tog i for hart iaf :P men vissa modeller. .. . behover tas med hardhandskarna ibland hahahhahah XD seriost. .. . de kan inte halla tiden. . .. alla kommer sa jakla sent hela tiden :P
Ah well, the cab drive was a long one, so luckily we were three or the bill would've been a lot higher :P
We were the first ones there. . . I just kinda led the two girls into the building and started searching for the place. They sat down in one escalator, i decided to go check the other escalator and there the stage was so i returned to them and we jsut sat there half asleep until the others came hehe.
Walking into the IKEA store. . . it just lit me up haha i was smiling a huge smile, seeing Daim, Bilar, Hart Brod, Kalles. . .. you name it. It felt sooo good to walk there haha
Ah well the stage. . .. well you can check the pics and you'll see the stage :P
People started comming in (Models) and finally we started the rehearsal. . . I was the only male model there :P So i went last in the sequence and had it a bit different, apparently i'm on TV just before the news every night now until "Fashion something" ends. . . .can't be fashion week because that's already over. . . i have no idea what it is.
Anyway the sequence was very simple, was kinda wierd though, because we had lots of female designers watching us, and camera men and shit. . . . it was just a rehearsal. . . .at freakin 7am in the morning. . . ah well :P
One girl came when the rehearsal was like 3/4 finished because she had gone to the wrong IKEA (There are two IKEA's in singapore)
Daniel was sooo pissed off, "YOU ALWAYS COME LATE TO EVERY F*CKING SHOW!"
i was like. . . .whoa . . .. haha, i know very well by now that he does NOT pardon late models XD
Anyway, we took a bus to the second IKEA (The smaller one), i slept the whole way there.
This IKEA was open, and people were walking around already, popular swedish furniture ^^ and meatballs ofcourse :P
Anyway, this stage was even easier. . . just walk back and forth pretty much :P
Well then after the rehearsal we got a little break. . . i spent some time chatting with Daniel and an announcer guy, i then spent the remaining time outside with a girl from poland (The poor girl who came late haha, she looks so cute and innocent. . . but man she's into the motorcycles and stuff. . . she's apparently very smart as well, went to some bigshot school in poland. . . .)
Then we headed back to the "Backstage" or whatever it was. . . .
There i saw that the girls had already started with makeup and stuff. . .. and i also saw that the "Snack" they said we were gonna get, was infact a tiny buffet hahah XD
So i jsut started chowing down lotsa food and enjoying my morning. . .. still tired as hell though, it was the kind of tired where your eyes sting constantly :P
I drank like 4-5 cups of coffee. . .. didn't help at all. . .
I spent a lot of time chatting with Yuki, the Polish girl, and my designer whom i found was pretty cute anyway. . . .
Well Yuki and the polish girl ended up having to do makeup so i talked a lot with my designer, who was also the only designer that would appear on stage during the sequences (Because she was the only one with a male model, and because i was Prince charming. . .turned into a prince after the princess (The designer) kisses the frog. . . so she had to follow me out, kiss the frog and turn it into a mantel and put it on me haha)
We got along great i'd have to say, i like her a lot!
Anyway, time for my makeup, it was very simple. . . i'm glad. . .after that i ended up talking with a girl from Hungary until the show started. (Her outfit was crazy, was made from material that was almost see through, and if that wasn't enough, it was urringat som fan ahhahaha)
Oh no, wait my bad, before the show we had to go downstairs and get our picture taken in our outfits by a professional photografer. It was kinda wierd, because by now the store was crowded already. . . and the place where the photos would be taken were like. . . .right in the middle of the entrance/exit of IKEA hahahha so there were just heaps of people watching while you took the pictures XD
Anyway, after another short break the first show finally started. . . it went really well. . . it was simple. . . my designer was so nervous though so i had to calm her down haha.
I said don't worry, we'll be going out together, i gave her my arm which she locked with hers and then we started by walking onto the escalator that would slowly take us down to the stage, then i let go of her at the beginning of the catwalk and walked my sequence (Just back and forth), i was carrying a stuffed animal (Frog), a stave with a tiny frog on top, i had on a greenish shirt, and i had my own pants on. When i came back to where the designer was standing (Her name was Evelyin, so i'll just continue by calling her Eve) i handed her the frog, she kissed it and started turning it into a cape. . .. . this took some time so i kinda felt stupid standing there posing with my stave while waiting for her to finish turning the frog into a cape haha, and it wasn't any less wierd becuase of the fact that TV camera's and photocameras were flashing at me from all directions :P
Finally she did it and put it on me, then i did my sequence, grabbed her arm and we left up the escalator again hehe.
Then we did our finale, all the designers joined us this time.
Then we went back to the backstage, got some group photos taken, and i changed back to my normal outfit.
Tis was a fun show, also. . . afterwards Eve came and told me i had some fans so i had to get my picture taken with like 8 different girls. . . . nice. . .
Oh btw, there were some swedish people there, they were the managers of IKEA so i spoke a bit with them as well hehe.
Well after the private photosession for my. . . hrm .. . "Fans". . . i walked outside together with the Polish girl and talked a bit, i went back to the backstage, grabbed a lunchbox and sat next to the hungarian girl and talked for while, then i retreated to a chair and tried to fall asleep :P
Anyway, time came for us to take the bus to the larger IKEA.
Once we got there they showed us where the makeup would be but we didn't have to do that for another 2 hours, so me, and 3 of the girls went to a giant shopping mall or whatever it was opposite of IKEA. One girl was singaporian (I think), one was probably from brazil. . . .maybe two of em were. . .. ah who cares.
Anwyay we walked around there for a while, headed back for makeup. . . .i put my head on my arms on a table and tried to sleep (There was also free daim, pepparkakor and ballerina kex ^^ MMMMMMM)
eventually it was my turn. . . and again it was very simple :P
Well i got my outfit on, got some pictures taken by photografers, then they escorted me and the polish girl down to the backstage. . . . . . .It was only me and her in there for like 20 minutes :P
We farted around and just. . .acted like kids haha
Anyway, eventually more of the models came in and before ya knew it we were lining up in order from first to last. But before the show started someone came in backstage and said someone was looking for Alex. . . so i walked out wondering who the hell it was. . .. turns out it was the Embassador of Sweden in Singapore and China hahahha so i spoke a bit with him, he was very pleasant and happy haha
And then the show started :P
When it came to my turn, i got an idea and quickly spoke with Daniel and suggested a bit of a change in the sequence he had given me and Eve. I suggested that i'd do it a bit differentely so that it wouldn't look so retarded when i just stand there and smile while Eve frantically tries to turn the frog into a cape haha.
Basically it would mean that i'd be out on stage a bit longer but i'd be doing more, while she changes the frog. . .. Daniel "SOOOO CLEVEEEEEER!" hahahahhaha so we went with that, real like last second change XD
Anyway, the show went well and it was time to go home. Since we were out in the middle of fkin nowhere, me, oen of the makeup girls and the hungarian model took a bus together to the nearest MRT station. . . then took an MRT ride that took like an hour .. . . btu at least i was sitting in the middle of two nice chicas ^^ i'd say it was one pretty freakin awesome day haha. . . .although tiring as hell. . . oh wait my day wasn't over haha
I met up with the relatives and ate a huge dinner at Susan's house. . .. just like we do every saturday! I also got christmas presents hahaha, en osthyvel, en jacka, en tshirt, en mousepad ooooch. . .. . det var allt tror jag. . . omtanksamt ^^
I also borrowed home some VCD's, which me and Cathy would spend the whole of sunday jsut watching haha. . . so lazy the day after because i got so little sleep :P
WEll. . great day :D i'll tell you about the photoshoot tomorrow ;)
Btw, i've added i think it was 27 new photos to the facebook album ;) enjoy!
The Bali photo's will have to wait till i'm at Wiley's place :P
Lotsa Love!
Alex
PS. Mom, i had a fitting today for another Daniel Boey show, and i saw sabrina there again, remembering you wanted to get contact with her i told her that you got really excited and started reminiscing about the good old days when you used to hang out with her. She was soooo happy and i asked for her email and i got her card. . . .so i'll send her contact information through email ;)
And the agency takes 20% of what i earn. Krya pa dig!
Farfar
Life is good haha :D And ofcourse i haven't forgotten about studies, i've figured out that i wanna study in sweden, BUT i wanna take an abroad program, so that i can go abroad at least one or two years ;)
Still not entirely certain about what i wanna study though >.< shit shit shit shiiiiit!
I am also aware that i have to change the airtickets very soon.
Btw I went to the agency yesterday and i was hungering for japan, so i told Jane "Man. . . do you think i could work in Japan? that would be sooo freakin awesome"
Jane responded "Oh you want?! Sure you could!"
. . . . . i almost died. . . . .wow. . . if i go modelling in japan. . . . i think i will cry myself to bed every night. . .. . happy tears. .. she also said that she'll prolly be sending be down to hong kong for like 2 weeks or something just to send me to castings and such.
Hmmm what else. . .. right the Malaysia trip with Johan is confirmed, buuuut today during a casting with Jemmy the agency called and said the pruposed me for a huge TV campaign. . .so if i get that i'll have to stay ;)
well that about sums it up folks!
Oh and i also just got scouted on Facebook by the same agency Sven is working for in hong kong. . .. how rad is that? XD
Gnight Love!

Hejje!
Alright so the Cortina show:
Well in the morning i had a Fitting for the Robinsons show, i would be wearing 3 outfits for that show on whichever day it now was hehe.
Anyway, i left with Jemmy back to the agency. . .can't remember why :P
After the agency we decided to head to the ritz carlton hotel, where the Cortina show would be held, we met up with Sheila on the way there. . . .We walked from the agency. . . .ofc i was sweating XD
Anyway, we finally reached the place, mostly by Sheila's guidance i would say hehe, oh we also went to the wrong hotel first. . . i think that hotel was called the Carlton hotel. . .. and apparently we werent the only ones who went wrong, because we also met Yuki and Yen Zi there. So we ended up becomming a tiny little mob trying to find a bloody hotel :P
Well we finally found it. . . and it was an extravagant hotel, if you've seen a highclass hotel, you can imagine this one as well.
We walked down to the bottom floor where the Ballroom was, once down there we met all the other models. . . . Turns out there were only three guys, me, Jemmy and Jonas. . .. guess how many girls. . .. . . not 10. . . . not 15. . . but 20 haha XD
Ah well we just sat in some comfortable sofa for a while (Me, Jemmy, Jonas), i didn't mind waiting because the airconditioning was changing my current state of flasande skandinavisk man i extrem hetta, to a more calm. . . less wet, guy. . . haha
Anyways, it was finally time to do our rehearsal, we walked into the ballroom, veeery classy, White tables, champagne glasses, tiny presents for all the guests, 35st anniversary signs everywhere, the stage was very dramatic. . . and well it was really cool, i got some pictures i can upload soon. I've been bad with the pics. . i have quite a few. . . specially from Bali, ok sorry gotta upload them when i gget the chance ;)
The show was soooooo freakin simple for us guys. . . . we just walk out, grab a hold of 3 female violinists and leave the stage. . . .. . . . appart from the finale where we just walk out and stand at the end of the catwalk holding a watch for a few seconds. .. . that was it. . . . and we get paid like 400 dollars for that hahahhaha XD
Ah well, after the rehearsal (Where i mostly just joked around with with everyone, and played starwars on a piano nearby. . .)
The guys were given like 3 hours break, i'm not sure if the girls got a break at all actually. . .. it's nice to be a man ^^
Anyway, jemmy and Jonas were gonna head home to fetch their dinner suits, i already had mine so i decided to go watch a movie instead.
I watched Fred Clause. .. . . was worse than i expected but it didn't suck i guess. . ..
Anyway, after the movie i rushed back to the hotel, asked some gay guy (I figured if he's gay he mostly deffinitely works in the fashionbusiness. . .) to show me where the makeup and hair was. . . . .he took me to the 14th floor (While he and his friends serenaded me with complements. . . .. . . hrm. .. ) . . . turns out that, that was where the makeup for the dancers was gonna be. .. so i headed down to the first floor again and just walked back to were we had sat in the sofas earlier that day.
In the room next to the sofas was the makeup place, i walked in greeted everyone, jemmy and jonas were there. I Grabbed a lunchbox and started eating. . . . Chicken rice i believe. .. with soya sauce :(
After that i went to the bathroom. . . .and if you've been in singapore you know that many bathrooms are mint clean, fresh and very stylish. . .. . well this bathroom was times ten of the other average bathrooms hahaha. Instead of paper towels to dry yer hands. . . they had thick towels which you used and then threw into a hamper. . . and well it was just very high class schtek ahha
Anyway, i headed back to the makeup room, changed into my dinner suit, got my hair and makeup done. . . .not sure if i even had makeup actually. . .
Well after that me, Jemmy, yuki and Yen zi ended up on the same couch as from the morning. . . Guests were poring in and they were all dressed very elegantly and everything was just suave and. . . .schtek haha. i saw that they were giving out free champagne so i grabbed a glass.
Well eventually the show started and well. . . . the boys did our. . . . short. .. . thing. . .. haha, tis was easy XD
Well after the show me, jonas and a few girls were just outside enjoying the openbar and. . . well just having fun i guess :P
It was night already so i grabbed a cab and went home to sleepy time!
The Robinsons show:
The last show for Anastasia in singapore :(
Ah well, we started early as hell in the mornign as usualy :(
Went into robinsons and it was a simple show just walk around in the shop pretty much, we were to be smiling because it was a christmas show as well.
Nothing much happened, we were like 4-5 guys and like 10 girls or something like that.
I went to the agency, found out i had a fitting for the IKEA show on saturday which was also with Daniel Boey (Luckily i went to the Agency, becuase of some slipup (Mainly by me) i wasn't aware of the fitting. . . .and i was about to go home when i decided i'd stop by the agency for no good reason. . .. funny. . . that's the second time i've decided to make an unecessary stop at the agency when my real goal was to head back home to sleep. . . .Both times i've had something i had forgotten or missed. . . .. . both times were pretty important things as well. . . . .God is surely watching overme ;)
Anyway, i walked to the Raffles Education Institute (I asked if it was a school. . . they said it was like a university. .. . but not. . . . haha whatever that means ;)
I met two of the models i had seen earlier that day at the rehearsal, i joined them and waited for further instructions. Then came a lady and told us to follow her, we walked with her into a room where lots of girls were fixing about and stuff (Turns out these were the designers)
Welli was sitting there. . .and only more girls kept on comming. . . nto a single guy. . . turns out i'd be the only guy for this show. . .10 girls. . . and that was only the models. . . .nice. .. .
The theme was Me & My Pet. . . hahahha so i was the frog prince turned prince charming after a kiss. . . .i'll tell you guys more about that when i describe the IKEA shows hehe ;)
There were some wiiiild assed outfits in there. . . haha mine was pretty simple though, a nice greenish shirt, then i would carry a stuffed frog which when turned inside out would become a mantel. . . hence i was a prince haha. . . i also had a staff . . with a tiny frog on top XD
Ah well, after that i went back to the agency, sat for about an hour watching laggy shit quality South park on their mdoels computer, when Jamie sends me an SMS. She said, Anastasia and her would be eating Cheesecake and wondered if i wanted to join them, i was pretty bored and i was starving so i agreed. So i met them in orchard and ate some food together with them, later another model joined. . . i think her name was. . . . shit i've forgotten haha, met her before though :P
Well Anastasia left (Girls had to head back to Robinsons before the guys) I hung aruond for another hour and a half with Jamie and the other model, then i also took farewell and headed back for hair and makeup.
I ended up sitting in a tiny room on the floor (It was a soft carpet floor though. . pretty pleasant) just talking with all the guys sitting around in a circle while the girls did maekup and hair :P
Very pelasant and mysigt faktiskt haha. . . very social. . .
Anyway, it was finally my turn for hair and makeup. . . makeup was nothing, simple makeup, thank god. . . . but the hair. . .. wow. .. .
I am NOT exagerating anything when i say that the stylist filled her palm with a blob of gel equivalent to the size of a tiny Mandarine. . . . . .i'm serious haha. . .
The result?. . .. . one FAAAAT assed Back slick hahahahha omg. . . it was SOOOOOO backslick. . .. this is the first time they've actually succeeded with a real proper backslick haha. . . insane. . . iwas just. . .. laughing at myself. . . i was a bit embarassed when we were walking through the store into the backstage haha.
Well time went quickly, and i was already in my first outfit ready to go.
I had three outfits, they were all very proper. . .a bit momma's boyish haha
First was like a v-neck cotton trojja over a pink shirt with a tie and proper pants, they also put a coat over me.
Second was pretty cool actually, it was like black jacket, black shirt and stuff. . . i don't really remember but it was cool ;)
Third was like. . . university professor clothes hehe red v-neck cotton trojja with white shirt under with a black tie, brown kavaj jacket and brown pants :P
Show went well, we just had to walk around in a circle pretty much, there were like 7 platforms we had to pose on each.
Last sequence a freakin santaclause would join us out onto the walk and i dunno if he was drunk or not but this guy was fkin crazy hahaha XD Yellowing out yohohohoo, pulling the female models up onto the platforms and stuff haha funny guy XD
The show was very christmassy with christmas decorations and christmas music and christmas this and that :P. . . only thing missing was real snow and weather below 20 degrees -.-
Ah well. . .the show was over. . . .i went to City Hall and ate Chicken Rice. . .. by myself. .. . went home. .. . Slippy tiiiime!
Man. . .. i could write about IKEA and Photoshoot now. . .but i figure maybe it best to wait. . . or this post will be waaaay too long than how too longish it already is :P
Ah well!
Hope all is well in sweden!
Lotsa Love
