Las Vegas, Yale, NYC, and Abercrombie Campaign!

Wednesday, April 11th, 2007

This last Spring Break was SO busy for me, but really fun (I like to be busssay!). First I went to Ohai in Cali w/ my Mom and sister, Yena. It was very beautiful and so peaceful!

Who would EVER get this for their cat!! :(

Since me and Tony and our friends are now 21, we took a fun 2 day trip to LAS VEGAS!!!!!!!!! It was SO fun, like an adult Disneyland.

Me and Adam successfully beat the system and made exactly FOUR DOLLARS PROFIT off of the slots. YES!!!

After LV, I went to Yale to visit my friend Katharine!

Then out to NYC with my dad and Yena. Central Park is gourgeous along with cats with sweaters!

After I went to NYC I flew to Austin, TX. I was chosen as the Asian/Eurasian face for the Abercombie Fall ‘07 campaign, so I stayed there for a week with the other models, taking acting classes and modeling the fall line. It’s so beautiful there!

My roomie, Kate, and our lovely friend from Panama.

Anna, me and Gabriella (Brazil!)

Mmmm masus and hairdresser!

Clubbin’ on 6th Street!

What’s goin on??!!

Fun model outing

Partaaaay in ma room, ahahaha alex’s face . . .

They used a monkey for the previous Hollister shoot, so I got to hold it!!!! It was the CUTEST THING EVER!!!!!!!!

Awww look at it!!!!!

Me and the girls . . .

The only thing that dissapointed me about the shoot was that out of the three companies, Abercrombie Kids, Abercrombie, and Hollister (80 models altogether), I was the only Asian or Eurasian model. I wish that the Asian race was represented much more in each of the campaigns, especially since all other races were equally represented, and Asian Americans rest as such a major customer base to each of the companies. However, on the other hand, I was also happy to be there at all, and I did my best to serve as the Asian American face for the Abercrombie campaign.
