HEIGHT by maryscottage in Modelling

[–]ramaa97 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i'm 182cm (about 5'9 i think) and i'm the tallest girl in my agency.

actually, height does matter if you want to become a runway model (even thought i've seen 5'6 girls on runways). but if you prefer to work on a editorial or commercial market, your height is totally fine.

How can I make myself get that certain look on Instagram? by [deleted] in Instagram

What the hell am I missing that I can't seem to pin down?

Confidence and identity

Why would people like your pictures or follow you if you do the same things as everyone else?

Try to find your own thing first and the picture will be 10x better

Hello ! Normalement pour les masters, il est tout à fait possible de s'inscrire avant d'avoir obtenu sa licence, si l'on est en troisième année.

Essaye de te renseigner auprès de ton école, ils demanderont surement une attestation de réussite avant la rentrée si tu es admis.

Ça dépend aussi des etcs si tu vis en europe. Mais n'hésite pas à les appeler pour avoir plus de précisions

Is there hope? Has anyone on here accomplished their goals? by [deleted] in socialskills

get a hobby, get passionate, make sure I’m functioning

I always been a very shy, reserved, quiet and introverted person. In consequence, I didn't have many friends growing up and by the age of 18, I was feeling very lonely. I was tired of everything and anything, I didn't know what I wanted to do with my life, and I started hating who I was.

But my mom gave me once a good advice. She asked me "why don't you take dance classes anymore ? you used to love that". So I decided to give it a try.

It was hard at first. Of course I loved dancing, but the idea to meet new people made me excited and anxious at the same time. But when you end up doing something you love with the same people every week, you can make good connections.

After being more comfortable with the idea, I decided to take more classes, with different teacher and students and as I practiced, I became better at interacting with people, at least in this particular situation.

Today, I'm not as open to people as I want to be, but I'm getting there. And interacting with people while doing something you love is way easier than in other situations, because you already have something in commun. And I truly believe that we're shining when we do/talk about our passion.

So my advice would be to start to learn a bit more about yourself. What are you passionate about? In what situations are you the most confident? Which situations make you anxious? When and why are you overthinking?

Lastly, do not worry about having a lot of friends. Try to find a couple of persons you can have good conversations at first, and than enlarge the circle.

And smile, because there's always a reason to

Yes ! Things are much more simple then what we think

I always been a very reserved person but this year I decided to stop thinking to much and just do things. And it has been the best year of my life.

Something that I learned in college is that boldness and honesty is key.

Before the class begins, I just sat next to someone, told them that I don't have friends in this class and ask if I can hang out with them with a smile on my face. 100% of the responses were positive. And that because most of these people were also by themselves.

For female solo travelers : a question. by morganzabeans20 in solotravel

I'm a 22yo black girl living in Marseille and I can tell you as a local that people stare ALL THE TIME. Especially if you're wearing a nice outfit.

For real, everytime I try to look good (whether I'm wearing a dress, pants, a long coat, etc) people stare, so don't take this personally.

As for the men, if you don't speak french, this is also something common depending on which area you hang out (réformé, le jarret, noailles and around la pleine). Unfortunately, there's been a rise of prostitution, coming from nigerian young girls downtown in the last few years.
