Firenze Girono 26




In June, Polimoda is having a fashion show, where the fourth year students will show their collections.
They emailed out to everyone that there was going to be a casting call at Luisa Via Roma looking for people to take part in the show. I decided that I had nothing to loose, so I went and filled out forms and got my picture taken. A shop worker took my measurements as I had no idea what measurements I was- I felt slightly awkward when after writing down my measurements, she showed her clipboard to a fellow shop keeper and said "bellisima". I didnt really understand that?
Unfortunately because the forms were in Italian I wasn't all that sure what I was signing for...but I think there is a contest of some sort, or at least thats what I could gather from the form? So I will keep everyone posted about that.
When I was leaving the store, the camera man noticed I had my camera along so he asked if I wanted a picture, we took about 3 different pictures and they all came out dark- for some odd reason my camera wouldn't adjust its settings? So the third picture I have posted is the interesting photo the camera man took- sorry for it being so dark, I tried to lighten it.
After the casting, everyone met up for a happy hour at a Mexican restaurant in the Centre. The food was delicious and the drinks were cheap. After the happy hour, we made our way to the Red Garter where they had karaoke.We only had one girl from our group sing!
Randomly I met a girl named Amy from Calgary, it was quite funny when she told me where she was from and then said her name. I think judging from the state she was in- she was more excited than I was :P
