It's good that you are aware of how things usually map out.
Off the topic-have you ever used a Miss South Africa as a model? My friend was the 2009 one.

Thanks Suga.
I've driven one of those, and they terrify me. Ok, it was in Cape Town with the wind howling and a whole lot of roadworks to add to the unevenness of the road.
I had my blood levels taken today, which meant I had to miss my morning Lithium & Epilim. I don't know how much of this was psychological, but I felt very vulnerable. Eyes wide and hyper-vigilant, startling at every sound.
The pathologists were full of ****, and I would normally have let them have it, but I forced myself to hold back. I felt very shaky. Everyone carried on having a great day, and I left feeling quietly swindled - but at least not destabilised. edit: not destabilised until I had the most mind blowingly out of this world delicious grape 10 minutes ago. Angels were singing the Hallelujah Chorus as I succumbed to its rapture. I get shivers just thinking about it.
Off the topic, no, pageant modelling is not my focus. I have done a fair amount of fashion, beauty and glamour work, but my preferred focus is on natural beauty and fine art expression. Occasionally I get fashion models wanting to diversify their portfolios, but it usually gets pushed in the direction of glamour... and I don't feel too good after shooting that stuff.
It gets into the whole issue of the "ideal image" being sold to women by the media. And a lot of that stuff is just plain unhealthy.
