Don't get ahead to far (UPDATE ON TRAVEL PLANS)


Tardiness again, I am always wanting to write but not taking the time. However there have been some important things going on and I thought I would share.

My time is Singapore is coming to a close. My contract technically ends tomorrow. I have been working yesterday and I will again today, promoting Blanc de Perle a new skin whitening product. This event has proved to be more challenging than any promotional event I have worked in the past as Singaporeans are much more shy and afraid to accept a friendly hello, than North Americans. Long days as well, yesterday was 4 hours of just standing and today will be 5. That is life though, I hope to help make today more fun and interesting to get the time to fly by. There is a props photobooth after all so I may just get people to jump in and take pictures with me.

Last week I met with 3 magazine, Men's Health (which is my dream to be in), Icon/Peak and Augustman (which is like GQ). This past week, I met with Revolution Magazine, had a casting for Crocs sunglasses, a condo developement, a floor hockey thing, and one more I can't remember now. So as you can see things are starting to pick up.

The challenge of course comes with my contract being over and having to  front my own money for rent and food if I decide to stay, or move on and start all over in another city. The pressure is on.

However, I went to Malaysia yesterday for a few hours and bought myself another 30 days in Singapore. So I am good immigration wise.  I also had a chat with my mother agency, my next city will be Bangkok. I am sorry to those I haven't had an opportunity to share this information with yet, but just wanted to get this out there, it was only decided yesterday.

Today I cancelled my Feb 19 flight to Canada or should say that my flight has been put on hold. So my exact return to Canada at this point is indefinite. My trip to BKK hasn't been sorted out yet, but should be within the next 2 weeks. I am aiming for a 2 month contract there.

In terms of living, I am not sure exactly what is happening with the room I am renting now. I have another week here, then a few friends have offered me a place to lay my head at night if necessary. Thank you!
