About Me
As it's clear to most of you all, this is my second official myspace page. It's hard keeping up with all of you so I decided to save this page for friends and family. However, knowing myself, I will deny a couple of strangers at first, saying to myself that this is only for REAL friends and family... then I'll find no reason for restricting myself and I'll once again, start adding everyone over the age of 18... as those are my rules on my other page.I want to keep this page open to me and hopefully you all can get a better understanding of the person you're dealing with.No Surveys!
No cartoon pictures
Maybe not even a background**************Some of you may know, I call myself Xtra. This all started the summer before 12th grade for me. I was trying to decide what to put on the back of my senior shirt. A friend said to me, you should put "Too much" because, Carla, you're too much! At the time, "too much" was not a popular phrase because it was just in the making. I went with it and put Too Much on the back of my senior shirt. Almost instantly my classmates began to ask, too much what? too much ass?, too much titties?...If you are one of those people who asked, you should be ashamed now that you read it and see how silly it sounds. Too much means, for example, too much for TV (as my friend Nycole says often). Too much means an excessive amount of whatever characteristic you may have. In short, too much is the same as having Xtra. So, I went from being too much to XTRA!**************I am currently modeling and have run into some of the greatest people and some of the worst apples in the bunch. I have worked with a couple of photographers who I may only like their work, their personality, or a combination of the two. Right now it's fun but I don't think i'll make a career of it.*********************A lot of people think modeling is easy. Believe me, it's not. It takes long hours out of your day. Posing in ways unimmaginable to the average human. Breaking out because you've had makeup on all day with a combination of hot lights and not enough food to hold you off for the photoshoot. It takes patience, to get the photo you want... That PERFECT photo. It takes dealing with asshole models, photographers, MUAs(make up artists), and the like. It takes sitting down when you've been outdone. It takes standing up when you know you're the one. It takes being in strange places, at strange times, in strange weather. It takes posing in the same spot so long you get cramps........ It takes being yourself enough to come up with creative ideas that show in your images. It's ART. and ART ain't easy!
