Diary of a Lioness



Sunday 30 August 2009


Well well well! I'm not even sure what to say..... I feel so guilty, honestly! Quite a few of you have been telling me off for abandoning my blog. Some have messaged nicely wondering when the next post will be. Others have sent me hate mail because I haven't updated. I find it really funny; "HOW DARE YOU NOT KEEP US POSTED YOU STUPID BI*@H". Lol. Funny thing is I'm not kidding. Luckily though, the majority have been nice, so nice in fact I feel obligated to write this. Unfortunately it's another quick one as I just stepped off a plane and I've got 101 things to do before hosting a party tonight. I feel shattered I'm telling ya. Happy, relaxed, but shattered.

So obviously I can't go back to the 90's or whenever it was that I last wrote a blog, so I will, in my next post as I have to go back out soon, try to fill you in with bits and bobs. Before I do that though, can I just make you aware of my late, or early, New Years resolution? To write a blog at least once a week. So the second you catch me slipping feel free to nag. Just not as rudely as some of the peeps mentioned earlier. Oh what the hell be as rude as you like. It's a free world.

Ok so I just got back from Antigua! I don't think anyone on that island will forget me. Not sure if that's good or bad. Had some shooting out there and also a nice little break though to be honest not a lot of chilling was done. Ok ok I'm guilty of not being able to relax; what's your point? Ya'll relax too much KMT. No but seriously guys you'd be proud; I didn't use my blackberry, didn't Tweet every 5 minutes, abandoned my emails, correction; most emails. Only spoke to those it's absolutely impossible not to cos if I don't chat to them I might just die (hopeless romantic) I planned on detoxing out there but I may have possibly ate more than I miraculously do here in London. Food was greeaaaaaat. Damn! Talking about the food already.

I had to do one of the shoots without make up on. And when I mean no make up on I mean NO make up on. Not the "we're gonna put on a lot of make up but do the natural look so it looks like you're not wearing any". NONE. I mean c'mon, at least a base coat or something? But no, nada, niente. That was challenging. Done a few like that, but this one was quite frustrating; hanging off random things in the immense heat, not able to keep my eyes open because of the sun and my exhaustion. Tryna pull off all the different looks without any make up to accentuate my features. But I've already seen a couple and I'm more than happy; shocked even. I suppose that's when you can really call yourself a model; when you pull off a successful shoot with absolutely zilch to cheat with but yourself. Just you, yourself and your skin lol. Not sure when I'll be able to post up pics but keep checking the blog.

Damn it's midday; I've got a lot to do. There really should be more hours in the day. The mad thing is it's the first time in ages that I've actually found the time to sit down and write a blog, and I haven't the time to sit down and finish the blog! lol. Consider this a short and sweet apology.........forgiven?
