Are you still upright?

As I mentioned, yesterday was a great day, I started to see some of the perks of being a model. The free hair cut, a few certificates and I also learned that clubbing is next to nothing for models (drinks, cover you name it is all covered for you). I woke up around 8 am had a quick Skype conversation with both Kelly and Brenna. I am a little homesick, so its nice to chat with friends back home. If anyone ever wants to Skype me feel free: wintonyk

After that I hit up the pool again. My body is starting to get a killer workout from swimming, I can feel it all throughout my shoulders, back, core and a little in my legs even. I am starting to get to the point of enjoying it. I have also tossed in some of the P90x exercise but in water. Man that is tough.

I strolled from there onto the Dawson Clinic for my appointment. Needle #2 of the twinrix. For those of you that have seen it, I didn't fair so well with the first. I had a Vaso-Vagal (essentially my body was like hey! What's up?!?! and decided to let me pass out). Excitement for the day right. Well this time I made sure I had eaten before going to the clinic. I had a couple buckwheat crisp crackers and some adams peanut butter. Then also an asian pear during my stroll. One last step was to pick up some Pocari Sweat, that shit is an awesome electrolyte drink, way better than gatorade. The Dr. I met with was great, we had a short conversation and I explained to him about my vasovagal in relation to low blood sugar. For the vaccine he asked me to lay on the bed and wait 5 min, then sit up wait a couple more then I was good to go. And... I WAS!!! No pass out. It's a good thing too, because I was at least 30 pounds heavier and 6 inches taller than everyone in the clinic.

Time for lunch, I rolled over to the place I tried duck yesterday and had roasted pork. It was great.


I made the entire trip without getting rained on. Well almost, the last 50m I got drenched. Apparently umbrellas don't do much good when you leave them at home. I had a great opportunity to chat with Mom, Dad and Ben on Skype when I got home too. Other than mom, this was the first time we had an opportunity to catch up.

I hit the gym for a couple hours after that, sorry I forgot to snap a pic. Just showered and now am off to see what I can score with that 100 bucks from yesterday and pick up some underwear.

TIP: You need more than 7 pairs of underwear in singapore. You sweat to much to stay comfortable in one a day.
