Hello ladies and gents! I have a lot of interesting entries to share, but first things first.

Before I proceed sharing photos from my previous shoots, let me share some photos from my old compilation from my Girls Next Door photo collection.  After going through the photos I was thinking, what if FHM came up with a Girls Next Door Get together? I’m sure it would be fun being with the girls again and meeting the people who voted and supported them all the way. It’s a “Get to know your favorite GND.”  Wow! Now I’m excited for that!

Anyway, these photos that I’m about to share are the unpublished ones. I’m still a fan of the First GND Batch. We didn’t just compete amongst ourselves but most of us became friends. It was more of a bonding than a competition. I wonder how the other batches went through the contest. For us in the first batch, it was more about having fun. We spent a few days in an island, a week or two in a suit room of Holiday Inn Galleria , went to parties, had Autograph signings and got pampered and treated like a celebrities! What’s more fun than that?

It was really a great experience for us girls. The first batch was also the most controversial–too complicated to explain but rest assured it did make our batch very interesting.

Here are some steaming photos of the lovely girls! Enjoy!

…finally the flowers. (I was so nervous that time i could feel that my lips trembling! hehe)

I am far from being that person who just works, works, works, and at the end of the day becomes cranky, eventually becoming a boring, overworked person. But most people don’t know, that being a model is not all about glamour. Models like me do need a good break to gather up good vibes.

There are times when i feel so down, I want to cry it all out. Of course I can’t because my eyes will turn puffy in the photos. So how do I get back on track and pull off the emotions a photoshoot requires? Asking that question rings my recess bell. Having some time off to be with myself is so hard these days. But when I get the chance, I’d jump to it, no second thoughts! This energizes me, and allows me to recognize new sets of positive emotions to give the photographers I eventually work with.

Here are a few of the photos not in a photo shoot. Some were taken by bystanders I simply approached for a snap or two. Or sometimes even 3 or 4 (not so demanding huh? hehe ) Hope you guys would love it!
