15 Questions to ask a girl

Okay, so I'm going to be interviewing some of my girl friends (for fun), just to have some new voices on this blog (I'm tired of seeing my own thoughts!) So I've come up with 15 questions to ask these girls.... enjoy!

Featuring: Melissa

Me: Can you tell us a secret about yourself?

Mel: well, if I told you, it wouldn't be a secret anymore...

Me: Did you ever have an imaginary friend?
Mel:  Yes I did.(her name was Thunder)  Funny enough my best friend and I have imaginary friends

Me: A pick up line that worked on you?
Mel: What? do those things even work?

Me: Is it ok for girls to make the first move?

Mel: Hell no. Let him enjoy the chace!

Rejection!

Okay, so last week I went for an interview, which went really well. I was even called back for a second interview (with a different person.) I didnt get the job, and I know why. As much as I hate being cliche, it's because I'm black! The lady actually called me yesturday and told me I was excellent for the job, but that there was "someone" else more suitable for it. (if you missed the hint, "someone" means a white girl). Then, she goes onto say, "We'll keep you in our data base in case another position comes up!" Talk about rubbing salt on an open wound.
Exhibit #2 A few weeks ago, I went to a promotions agency with 3 friends, and as soon as I walked in she said, "Sorry, you're too short! You won't be able to book any jobs because of our client specifications."
Exhibit #3 I applied to be a promoter at promo agency.My application was successful, so they asked me to forward them details about my height, weight, measurements, etc. After forwarding the required, I received the following email:

Hi there
Thank you for your response. Unfortunately we are not taking any more models/promoters at this time.

So I went onto their website and looked at the girls that are already part of the agency, it clicked!

*sigh*

I guess by now, you know where I'm going with this!

You would think we live in an 'open-minded' society, but here are three different scenarios where I'm being judged on my skin colour, my height, and my weight. I mean, it's just  promotions!! You don't need to be a size zero or 1.7m tall to sell stuff.
I'd like to think I'm a relatively confident person. I don't really have issues with the way I look, but I have to admit, all these experiences have put me in a place where I now stand infront of the mirror, and start wondering why I'm not good enough.
Anyway, I'm not the type to dwell on the negative. To be frank, I'd rather not associate myself with people who are that narrow minded (yes, I'm trying to make myself feel better)
So onwards with the job hunting!!

P.S: To anyone who feels the way I feel- look in the mirror every morning and say:
1. I AM WORTHY
2. I AM BEAUTIFUL
3. I AM ME
4. I AM GOOD ENOUGH, AND IF ANYONE THINKS OTHERWISE, THEY CAN JUMP OFF A BRIDGE!!

And on a completely unrelated note: I am officially on holiday!!! whoop whoop, bring in the fun times

Bucket list

Well, there comes a time in every (normal) person's life, where they compile a list of all the things they want to achieve, see, attepmt, etc. Some of us- just have to put it in black and white!! Here's mine...
