I'm in a TV Commercial!

It's been a while since I last wrote here..

few interesting things have happened to me the past few months and I could say that along with the daily hustles and bustles, here I am.. still the same old person but with whole new experiences..

Speaking about that, I never thought that I would have a TV commercial again.. I did one way back when I was in college and that was just a rapid exposure.. hihihi but 2 months ago, I got in again! I was so proud of myself considering that I am a very shy person.. It was a story of self growth and achievement on my part and let me write it down for memory record..

After I had my mole (on my left cheek) removed, a college schoolmate (who is now my agent) messaged me about opportunities  for modeling.. when I still had my mole, some of the people I've talked to in the casting world would tell me that its pretty hard to get a job with a protruding mole in the face as they are very meticulous about choosing their specific talents - but before I go further I just have to lay it here that I didnt get my mole removed just because of that but because I noticed that it was only getting bigger and fatter and I begun to get distracted by it I finally decided its time. hehe

Moving on.. it was on my 3rd month of attending vtrs and final castings (on and off) that I landed that opportunity. in that certain vtr, There are bunch of beautiful talents that I compete with.. I hate to use the word "compete" but I cant think of anything to rationalize any words.. so pardon me. at first, I was so nervous I just told myself to try.. but despite of trying, I knew in my mind that I would not get in  again.. because It's kinda obvious that I wasnt that tall.. I wasnt that pretty.. I was just an okay.. compared to the others I saw..

I went home that day with a sigh of relief that despite the outcome, I knew I tried.. and thats the only thing that matters..

after about a week or so, I got a text saying I was included for the final casting.. I wasnt very in shocked as Ive been included to several castings already but I was also excited to know that I was considered again.. and for me, it was enough..

My husband came with me going to the final casting and as soon as we arrived there.. there are again bunch of beautiful talents waiting.. I whispered to my husband that we should leave.. that I wont be able to get the role again.. but it wasnt worthy if we leave.. right? I mean i got that far.. I have to see what ends the journey.. and besides, my agent came along for their support..

and then it was my turn.. they had me act.. did a very "surprised" expression (but looks stupid for me haha ) and played with the "role" they want me to be in.. I thought I did my part..they had me act several times so we did not leave sooner than I thought.. we left the casting place totally unsure of the outcome..

2 days after, my agent called me.. I had a text that I got in! wow!

that was one of my dreams again.. to be in a tv commercial and a print ad. hehe God truly works in mysterious ways sometimes as I had both :) I also modeled for a print ad last January ;0

THEN AGAIN, IM BLESSED :)
