I called her and confirmed my attendance, but, since I'm from Mexico, she told me that we had to use only the email to communicate.
 
I went, and we were like 10 girls, incluiding 2 young good looking couples.
I asked one of my best friends to go with me, we spent like 100 dlls between gasoline, meals, and other expenses. We had to drive more than 2 hours and then made another hour on the border line. I was more than excited just by thinking that I could do what I love the most and earn money by it. Specially because I'm Mexican, I was about to live the american dream.
 
So we were there listening to a lecture for an Hour given by this EJ guy, who was claiming to be super succesful, that he worked with a lot of famous girls before and used a name of an ex miss universe, but I really don't remember her name.
He talked about how girls could be jiraffes or just turtles, I personally felt offended when he talked about university, man... I spent 4 years of my life on University and I'm proud of it and he was criticizing us... he said that we wasted our time, because we could do a lot more money just being popular, that we doesn't nessesarily have to be pretty or skinny... so it was getting worse and after an hour he interviewed us individualy...
He told me that it doesn't matter that I'm mexican, that they will find the way to pay me legally...
That I was speciall, BUT that if I wanted to make real money I will have to pay like $650 for a photoshoot in L.A. with Peter Baratti ...
When I told him that I didn't have that amount, his face turned red... like angry, and asked me how could I let go an opportunity like that just because of money...
 
And then,,, we interchange some emails
