I’m not much of a talker so I always pass by opportunities to talk about myself. From an outside perspective, I am involved in somewhat unusual activities but I’ll only mention one today.
Let’s talk about this unusual subject of modeling that have found its way into my life in a few different ways. You say: Model? Ky? No way! But wait…
I’ve had the same hands my whole life (I swear) so I didn’t realize how well-figured and attractive
they were until I went to Vietnam for the first time. Vietnamese people tend to pay an adequate amount of attention to hands so I received almost celebrity status for my little hands from my family and Vietnamese friends. For a summer, I played with the idea of becoming a hand model, learning about the field, doing lots of research, nothing but idle work. Somewhere in there, I decided it was too hard to pursue this professor so I neglected my hands for a few years and now have accumulate a nice set of scars–gentle scars but scars nonetheless. Not to mention I never took the time to really learn how to give myself manicures. I’ve always had strong sturdy nails so never bothered to learn how to prevent breakages, peeling, etc.
I’ve recently reignited this modeling chase but again, I’m lacking the patience and care that a hand model needs to succeed. My hand modeling pursuits have not completely faded but I need some helping ‘hands’ before this career is gonna go anywhere. Anyone wanna teach me hand and nail care…?
To make up for my unrealized dreams as a model, I’ve diverted my energy into marketing Sequoia as a dog model. So far, I haven’t been persistent enough in contacting agencies but maybe this will be a work in progress. I hope they make another Snow Dogs movie or something of the like–he’d be perfect!
Mike got a modeling gig a week ago–discovered on the streets of downtown San Francisco by the top stylist of Vidal Sassoon! We were eating at an outdoor table on Powell when a woman,
Nicole, asks Mike (who by the way was wearing my trendy vest with a furry neckline) if he could be in her hair show. I was so envious but I got my share of the deal with she agreed to cut my hair if he could commit to it! I was satisfied.
The show was last week and the female models had AMAZING haircuts. Nicole is like an artist but her medium is hair and her tools scissors and combs. The salon is really impressive; lots of funky haircuts that actually looked flattering on people, instead of tacky. It lifted my confidence in salons especially after my bad experience at Peter Thomas Salon. I got my haircut from Nicole today and I am very pleased with it. She sculpted it really well and I had such a great experience with her.
So there you go, you know how to look for if you need dainty hands, pretty wolf-dogs, or well-textured hair 
I’m serious…
