I am feeling [ bored and mildly depressed ]
I have just been [ laughing ]
I can hear [ the Urban show on Radio 1 ]

WOW!
Pharell and Kanye West have done a song together.
The 2 best producers in Hip-Hop at the current time.
Together.
On ONE track.
This is AMAZING!

Although, its titled "Number 1". Do people not realise how stupid they will look if their song doesnt get to the top of the charts?
Come on people, learn from Ludacris' mistake.

Anyway, back to what I was actually going to talk about.

The mild depression is a result of revision. Don't you just feel like throwing solid hydrogen bonded structures at walls when you think everything is going in but then marking past papers tells you otherwise.

Mind you, it was the first set I've done and I got high B's / Low A's, and I can only get better can't I?
However, the reason Im repeating modules 1 - 4 is to get better than last time, which means low A's is not good enough.

And keeping everything going at once is proving to be difficult. Having concentrated on Chemistry this past week, my Mechanics has taken a slight decline.

I just want it to be over. Come on July!

I had the Biology practical already. What is OCRs obsessesion with Urine?
It went okay despite me being extremely disorganised, and barely able to keep my eyes open.

Of course it just had to be me who spilt the ethanoic acid everywhere, and who then later on managed to drop the Urease pipette into the acid pool, so denaturing the enzyme.
Never a good thing when the experiment is based on enzyme reaction rates.

And incase you didn't know, it takes about a day and a half to get the smell of Urease, ethanoic acid, and "Urea Solution" off you hands.

I had just been laughing at this, which I came across through Mr Hoo.

Finally - what do you make of this:

I got a phone call from Models Online yesterday at about 11am.

The (eventually polite but unprofessional) lady said that I had been selected by their "management team", out of hundreds, and congratulated me.

The thing is I applied online only the night before - hmmm?

She then asked about my age and height and said I'd be suitable for catalogues and something I cant remember now.

After this she informed me that Models Online is not an agency and that they only "help aspiring models break into the industry", (Cringe) and proceeded to read a whole load of sell-it-to-the-listener crap to me about them in a kind of wow-we-are-so-good-aren't-you-lucky tone.

Then - and this is where it gets fishy - she said that as a model I'd need a portfolio and that she would like to invite me to their London studios for an appointment. Apparently this normally costs between £300 - £400 but she had a few slots for free.

Why if it cost so much was she willing to do it for free?

Then I explained how there was a problem as I was doing my A levels and wasn't free until July and asked if it was possible to come down then.

She said no as she only had a few of these free-of-charge-slots left, and became really really pushy:
"Can't you spare one Saturday?"

"No, I'll have no free time until July"

"Not even four hours?" (Yeah, like I can get to London, have a photo shoot and get back in four hours)

"No, they have already started, I wont be free until the Summer"

Then she backed down and asked me to call her back when my exams were over.

So what should I make of this?
How come I was picked so quickly?
Why are they giving me a £300 - £400 shoot for free.
Why was she so pushy for me to have it?
Where do they get their money from?
Are they a go between between me and the Agencies?

Models Direct also emailed asking for some better pictures to present to their national selection pannel. How exciting.


Anywho, Im off.
