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

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
