All bluffing aside, I am now a model for real. I know that it doesn’t make sense because I am petite and my bust-waist-hip measurements are not exactly Cocaine Kate (Kate Moss) material, but hey, this is 2008 and this is Tololy: ANYTHING can happen.
Seriously though, I posted pictures of my hands/nails on this blog at different points in the past. Some of these pictures were a documentation of my ‘good’ nail days, and others were a documentation of my ‘bad’ nail days. I admit I enjoy taking pictures of myself because I am a devoted narcissist as any of my friends and family will swear to you should you ask them, but that’s a topic for another day.
I was contacted by two sister websites: www.unghielunghe.com, and www.nailslong.com to be a hand model for them. Both sites are based in Italy and feature pictures of nails and hands and all things related to them, and it seems they found my nail pictures online and wanted me to join them. I said OK, so I expect my pictures to appear in these sites any day now. Pretty fetishistic and exciting, if you ask me — they’ve got some seriously long nails featured there.
I am, needless to say, flattered and very amused at this cosmic irony. Because right now, my hands look like they have just stepped out of a horror movie called Teeth. But the unexpected flattery of being asked to be a hand model (even if it doesn’t pay) got me thinking I should go easy on them.
Now I am off to pamper my hands by not eating them. People who want my autograph should contact me by email or by leaving comments on this post. Thank you.
So are you going to do it? :D
Yeah!
Well Congratulations!
If I post my nail pictures online I’d get offers from pharamceutical companies
NICE :D

I was going to post pictures of my hands yesterday and how I had every single muscle drawn on my palms to study then I thought I should spare you people manzar 5aretat al kanz !!
Congrats tololy.
I want your autograph please!
mmm I think we can now invest with your superstar hands and nails by shooting an advertisement for you eating Mansaf :P… who’s gonna LOVE the jameed now?? J
Did you ever see the movie ‘Zoolander’, where David Duchovny plays a retired hand model who keeps his hand preserved in a custom-made hyperbaric chamber? "I’m a hand model, mama. A finger jockey. We think differently than the face and body boys… we’re a different breed."
Woohoo! Go easy on the autograph signing - it could have a detrimental effect on your hands… :-P
