Today, was quite the eventful day. To begin with I was cast in a music video! Funny thing, it was all in Arabic so I don't remember the singers name and don't remember the name of the song but I was a blast. We all had to dress up in World Cup jerseys and they shot it on this huge soccer field at a school. This was the first gig from the modeling agency I'm doing some work with. I managed to befriend this college student from the University of Jordan who became my translator for the day and who later on drove me to my friends house, he was a life saver. But yea, so I sit down and they call the eight of us from the modeling agency and tell us that they want each of us to sing a part of the song by ourselves with the camera straight on! I start to panic ! The song's all in Arabic !! AAAHHH!! What am I going to do? ! I mean I know Arabic well enough to carry a conversation but this!! So I think back to an episode of America's Next Top Model where the girls have to do a whole commercial in another language and think to myself " If those ditzy twigs can do it, then so can I!" and believe it or not when I sat down at the camera everyone said that I did the best job out of all the other models, lol.
So when thats over my new friend an I trek over to my friend Saba's house where I am greeted with by smiles, hugs, food, and a bed to nap in. Now who is Saba, you may be wondering ? She's one of the kindest people that I've met in Jordan. She's a 27 year old lawyer who is like a big sister to me and I wonder what my time would be like here if i hadn't met her .
