A Little About Me
Welcome, and thank you for taking the time to look around. I would like to take this time to let you know a little about myself before you decided whether or not you want to continue tuning into my site. My name is Laura Geerman, I am 25 years old, and I am the mother of 3 beautiful young boys. I mostly enjoy writing, fashion/modeling, and crafting. As a young teen, I like many others fell into the scam modeling gigs and even signed up for one of those, "I will pay you to make me spend more money for a lot of nothing" pyramid schemes, that so often prey on young teens in malls. I gave up on pursuing modeling shortly thereafter due to lack of support from family and friends, and seeing as my mother was a single-parent she could not afford paying for the up-keep of a high maintainance pre-teen. I then had the cliched childhood you hear from every "emo" teenager these days, I fell into the wrong circles and I began to spiral out of control. During this uncontrolled time in my late teens, I lost my way and I did not pay attention to the important things. After sometime, I began getting my life back on track and I then became pregnant with my oldest son, after I had him it was 2 years, one month and one day before I had my second son, and the it was just under 2 years later that I then had my third son. I have during this time been a stay-at-home-mother to my children, while I have loved every bit of being here for my children I also have felt that I have lost myself and my identity. I by no means expect that during anytime of my journey that I will become famous or frequently talked about model, but I do want to be accepted in the modeling community as an equal. I intend on doing all that I can within the financial parameters that our current recession will provide, so that I may be able to achieve my goal properly. My goal is to transition from being a full-time mother to a model, I am not going to choose a sub-text for the modeling I will be doing because from one project to the next it could vary greatly. During my journey I intend on posting new content as it becomes available to me and I would love to hear from you if you have anything constructive to say. I am not looking for hate mail, I am fully aware of how cut-throat the modeling industry can be, as well as that by not having any formal training/etc that the odds are against me, and I am even more aware of how there are millions of aspiring models/actresses/actors who each day put themselves out there for the mainstream industry. I have one thing to say to those of you who are already part of the modeling community, I want to thank you for all that you do because without you I would have no inspiration to follow in your footsteps and at no point do I discredit your hard work because I intend on doing this to the fullest and therefore will eventually understand the struggles of a model (and if I fail horribly, then you are welcome to pick me apart while I truly do not want that to happen, the potential for failure is high and it is a real possiblity...). I will be completing and publishing corresponding pages between now and February 1, 2010, check back often to see new content. Thank you and if you have any questions, comments, or suggestions e-mail me at [email protected]
