A couple edits from the DITS Shoot





Behind the scenes with Christian

So here are some behind the scenes shots I have from the shoot I did with the DITS girls and photographer Ishmil. Great people, we had soo much fun in between shooting and during as well. We shot late at night & had the music blasting in the studio and jokes being told non stop.

The DITS girls are up and coming Toronto stylist that bring it like no other! Ishmil was dope & gave a lot of directions throughout the shoot!









They also did a post on the other night; check out there site. http://www.dits-tricks.com/

Yeah, I'm slackin' in the blog world!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

It's been soo long since I've blogged that I almost forgot the name of my site..SMH! Anyways a lot has been happening for me as of recent. You know me, I'm always trying to further/better myself. So as of January I am back in school, finishing my last two credits to graduate this semester!!! I am hella excited & might I say proud of myself! I must say if I start something I promise myself that I will finish it no matter what & that's what I did!

Concerning modeling, I have finally made a concrete decision to push this sh!t to the limits. After a lot of time contemplating my next moves, I have decided to FINALLY give a shot at travelling and working abroad. The plan is South Africa, end of July early August 2010. My agency is really supportive of my decision and are doing everything to make sure I stay on track concerning this move.

There's a long space in between then and now so as of now I am saving my pennies and doing a lot of work at the gym along with photoshoots. I actually just completed a shoot last Wednesday and I have another one coming up beginning of February and another one after that. We also have "Fashion Week Toronto" coming up in march so I'mma be in that too!

Those are the big updates for now, I'm happy with life, content I must say but ready and pushing for more.

Thanksgiving Weekend!

Wow, so I'm not trying to fall off on my continuous posting I've been doing so I'm here! Last weekend was absolutely insane. I actually didn't get the chance to go back to Ottawa to celebrate with my family due to how busy it was. I was working everyday, day & night at the club, my chola Nebby's birthday came up & soo much more. I literally had 5 hours of sleep from friday - sunday.

I celebrated thanksgiving last night with Nebby & Cris. I brought the groceries/Nebby cooked. It was pretty dope. I love hanging out with them, so real and refreshing compared to some of the people I'm exposed to.... that's another story.

Anyways I am feeling really good about life right now and I have a couple things coming up so I will keep you posted. I have a meeting with a new agency tomorrow therefore I gotta head to the gym today, get the hair cut & update my photos.

On that note, I'm out
God bless

My promise

No one ever said this would be easy, but if it's something you feel you cant live without, put your all into it and never give up. I'm going to take a huge risk right now & live my life the way I want to. I'm gunna put my all into this dream I have been having since I was six years old. I promised myself that I would be a sucessful artist & I am going to follow through with that promise. I am writing this letter to ask for the strength and guidance from the Lord above to help me in this journey. I am going to put everything in this past and look towards the future. I know deep down that this was something I was suppose to do in life, there's no doubt about it. I took the chance and moved from the only home I knew to go after my dreams and I will be damned if I don't make it come true.


Please believe, that things happen in your life for a reason, if you have a gift use it!

Things that I hope to accomplish in the future!

So I am and have always been someone that plans out my life. Every week I write down goals and aspirations that I want to accomplish during the week or in the near future. That being said, I decided to do a post on some of the goals that I hope to accomplish in the (near/far) future.


1) This seems as it will be my lifetime goal, which is to be completely happy & satisfied with my life. I'm not even sure if this is possible for me, since I know how much of a perfectionist I am. It drives me insane sometimes, I always feel that I can do just a little bit better.

2) A sucessful singing career. I know that a lot of people in Toronto may not no yet, but I am and have been a singer for many years. I got a development deal and worked with a record label down in Toronto during my high school years & opened up various big concerts in Ottawa during that period as well. I took some time away from music but I am slowly beginning to make my way back into it. It's truly my passion & I have given up soo much to pursue this career that I MUST sucessfully complete this goal before my time is up.

3) Have a billboard - I have been modelling for almost a year now & have been fairly sucessful with it. One of my biggest goals in this career is to have my face featured on a huge billboard downtown.

4) Help with various humanitarian campaigns - A lot of people may not know this but I am a huge advocate for helping in eliminating and creating awareness for a couple causes in the world. I want to help in creating awareness for HIV/AIDS. I think that this epidemic has affected way too many people in the world & I truly believe that with the proper amount of education and methods of preventing the spread of HIV will help make our world a better place.

I want to help be a part of a cause that will also help people understand and appreciate all people of different colour. I have been faced with racism throughout my life & I know how much it can affect somebody. I feel that no one should be judged based on the colour of their skin & I want to help people understand how important it is to treat ALL people equally.

Another cause that I want to help create awareness to is human trafficking. I stumbled on a documentary when I was younger about the issue and have been trying to spread word of it ever since. I did a showcase and project about the issue in high school and even sent information over to Amnesty International about it.

5) I want to travel around the world. I want to be able to say that I have visited everywhere in the world. I feel it will make me more cultured and be able to share my experiences with my family friends and peers.

6) My ultimate goal is to be able to say when I'm old and looking back on everything is to be able to make sure that my family is taken care of. I want to make sure that my mother has everything she ever wanted, my brothers and sisters have money to complete their secondary education and a good start on their life. I want to make sure I live my life with no regrets and be living proof that if you put your mind to something you can achieve anything.
