I imagined being signed by some famous model companies. For months, any boredom or disappointmentW3 I faced was pushed aside because I knew I would soon have the chance to be a real model. I thought I would grace the covers of famous magazines!
Of course, I wasn't signed, but what hurt the most was being told that if I grew to 5′9″(about 1.75 metres) I could be a success. I prayed for a growth spurt (冲刺) because I could not imagine giving up my dream. I made an appointment withP2 a local modeling agency and the agent demanded $500 for classes. $500 for a photo shoot and $300 for other expenses. My parents only agreed after hours and hours of me begging.
The agency sent me out on a few auditions, but with every day I didn't receive a call, I grew more depressedW4.
The_final_straw came in July after I had decided to focus on commercial modeling. There was an open call in New York City. We spent hours driving and another few hours waiting, only to be told that I was too short.S I was devastated (感到难以承受的).
Years later, I realized that the trip to New York was good as it made me notice I didn't actuallyW5 love modeling, just the idea of it. I wanted to be special and I was innocently determined to reach an impossible goal. The experience has made me stronger and that will help me in the future.
