hotties, modelling and general good vibes

Well… I’m staying down the road from seventeen, so lucky me I get to walk to work ☺ This morning I woke up at 7am – way too early but the traffic going past our flat is ridiculously loud, plus the nerves were kicking in. When I arrived at the doors of seventeen I became super nervous, but the offices are really beautiful and everyone looked so friendly that I soon began to relax. My morning went by quickly and before I knew it, it was lunchtime. Went to this gorgeous deli called Miss K with some friends – the food was divine. When I got back to seventeen, I sat in on the production meeting and they asked me to be one of the models for their shoot on Thursday – it’s for the July dance issue! I’m really excited and really nervous. The rest of the afternoon I had to help out with writing a quiz and then sadly it was home time.

Just another day at seventeen :-)

Today I arrived at work a bit early so I got straight down to work. I had to call some of the hotties from the Do You Know a Hottie? competition that ran on www.seventeen.co.za for the Guys Talk page – can I just say that the twins are really cute?! Check out the guys’ answers in the June issue on sale 1 June! Plus, keep a lookout on www.seventeen.co.za, there's a hot, new guys section launching in the next few weeks!! I love how relaxed the environment is here at seventeen – it would be a dream come true to work here after I've finished studying. I can’t seem to get through to the twins?! Lol. Had to try on some of the clothing for the shoot on Thursday – I was lucky because I got to choose my outfit first ☺ Can’t wait!! After lunch I helped reorganise the beauty cupboard and I attended a team meeting in the boardroom – it was really interesting to see how they get the magazine sorted and all that stuff.

This morning was really quiet and I’ve just been observing what everyone is doing. Today’s the day I get to model for the Dance issue! At around 2pm I went to get my hair and make-up done with three other girls. It was really fun talking to the other girls and getting to know them while the make-up artists dolled us all up. I think they did a great job ☺ All the girls looked really beautiful. We were then driven to the location where they were shooting – it was a beautiful venue and the photographer was really sweet and always helping out when necessary. She made all my nerves disappear and I had so much fun! Check me out in the July issue on sale 1 July!
