It's the winter, so I'm not really getting any jobs but I don't know. I think I want to model for good things, like maybe beauty ads that only show my face or ED awareness ads. Thanks for sharing the pictures(:<br /><br />But looking at the pictures, I really realize that it's not worth it. All of the models look very tired and worn out. Probably from not eating. Thanks again, this was almost like a wake up call for me. I'm really glad you're a lot healthier and happier now too(:Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16145179476585616888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8156658953842569650.post-62319953392081080352009-10-20T00:55:06.362-04:002009-10-20T00:55:06.362-04:00your cat

When you made the decision to leave modeling, there must have been lists of pros and cons that you considered. Pros: you had a place in the fashion community, and you must have made friends with some very cool people among the designers, stylists, photographers, etc. You were doing work that you enjoyed, and probably making loads of money. Cons: you were becoming more and more ill, and ultimately if you continued it could cost you your life. <br /><br />There might not be anything I could say that would make you feel better instantly, but we are all born with a variety of talents and abilities. When the dust settles, you will find other work that you love, and you will find community again among your fellow professionals. Finally, when you do the work you do best, the money will come. <br /><br />I hope that helps you. I've been in that dark place before. You will see the light again, and laugh with friends and have fun, I promise.Bliss Doubtnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8156658953842569650.post-26349266116434005502009-10-18T23:42:40.417-04:002009-10-18T23:42:40.417-04:00Oh Marina, I'm so sorry that everything seems ...Oh Marina, I'm so sorry that everything seems to be overwhelming you all at once (I know the feeling!). It always works out, one way or another. It's hard to remember that sometimes.<br /><br />Thank goodness you DID make it out of the modeling industry and are now in good health.

Those models look like they have been in concentration camp for a year. They seriously need to eat :( It's so sad to me...<br />I'm glad that you have recovered from what you were a few years back...It scares me that so many young girls look up to these kind of models now. Sadly though...most of them don't want to be that way. THey have to be that way to *make* it big in the modelling world.

That's been my mantra all week- wise words, Marina. Models do NOT look healthy, nor do they look happy...their eyes are dull. Hunger isn't beauty (that first fashion week pic looks like a commercial for an eating disorders unit or something).<br /><br />Let me know when you are around the upper west side to see where I am staying...

I'm sorry you had a dark night of the soul, sorry you suffered in your modeling days, and sorry that beastly boyfriend is playing hard to get. You be hard to get too! <br /><br />I didn't realize that the model photos have to be disguised to cover up skinniness! What is the point of getting to the weight of a concentration camp victim, then having to compensate for it with photography tricks? I could say that we live in a sick world, but I think it's more that western culture is sick. I don't buy Vogue any more. It preys on the hopes and dreams of young females. I don't have cable TV, so I can't watch the runway shows.<br /><br />I think it's better just to eat for health, good fresh veg, fruit, whole grains, good things, nourishing things, and to get out, get exercise, have a good life, with work you believe in, and service to others. Enjoying love when you find it is probably a more important nutrient than any of the above.<br /><br />I'm glad you have Peanut to comfort you. I truly hope you'll find, see or hear something this weekend that will cheer you up.Bliss Doubtnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8156658953842569650.post-61609782006459525902009-10-16T10:27:10.097-04:002009-10-16T10:27:10.097-04:00When I met you last week I did not know about your...When I met you last week I did not know about your past.
