In Other Words

Old Tech

We're sitting here in an internet cafe with the last couple of days of blog entries on a thumb drive, but these computers are too damn old to have USB ports. Truth be told, we were already suspecting that might be the case, but we still took it with us in case we got lucky. We didn't, so that will mean you guys will have to wait till later in the week for your those updates (I'll make sure I mention it on the top when I do update them.)

Things are still going their steady way. Still no work, though I do have a shot at landing a campaign for a local clothing brand (I would be modeling) here in Perth. The guy that is going to do the photography for that campaign saw my pictures and said they were kind of what he was looking for, but he would like to see something more recent. Fortune has it that Chadwicks models had just booked me for a shoot to update my portfolio (comes out of my future pay). Guess who the photographer is?

Thats right, the same guy that is taking the photos for the campaign. So that's a stroke of luck. Of course the photographer would then still need to convince the owner of the store, but it would put my foot in the door.
I hope I'm not appearing to be grasping at straws over here. I'm sure I'm starting to loose some perspective on what is an opportunity and what is just plain silly. This didn't seem too bad, though.


I've also been called back to come see this charity organisation, but I've written about that extensively in yesterday's post, so you'll hear about that when I manage to put that one up. I'm not sure about that.
Anyway, things seem to be looking up. At one point one of the opportunities has to pan out, that's just a statistical given.

In the mean time I've got squash tonight, so that will at least make me feel like I'm doing something more then just waiting. Probably I'll just end up waiting and hurting. Maybe they will end up fighting with each other and leave me well alone.
