Enzo expressed himself and vacated the building at 6:03 AM
7 is a very significant number for me. I was born on the 7th day of January. My birthday in digits will be 01/07/1988. If you keep on adding the digits you’d get the number 7. In line with this, I think it would be nice to do a weekly count down of top 7 random things that i can think of. It can be top 7 celebrities, friends, movies, music, or anything that comes to my mind. For today however, it would be the 7 worst jobs that you can end up in.
7.) Ghost Singer for any artist. I couldn’t sing to save my life! I have always loved music. It’s just sad to say that music doesn’t not love me. Apparently, there is such a thing as ghost singers similar to the concept of ghost writers. It’s basically when you sing for an artist and then they would use your voice as if it was the artist’s own voice. If i’d do this, it’s probably the end of their career.
6.) Publicist for Paris Hilton, Britney Spears, and Lindsay Lohan.
I’m taking up Organizational Communication and one of the career tracks that I can head to after college is public relations. One of the sub-careers in public relations is being a publicist. I’ve often dream of myself being a publicist for a famous celebrity. I’ve always wanted to build good images for people. I’ve always been fascinated by the idea of public relations. But for every rule there is an exception. I mean, Being incarcerated, driving under the influence, showing your private part by not wearing underwear, and the list goes on is just too much. Just a crisis is enough for a publicist. Imagine if it is a recurring thing. Your job is supposed to be creating a good public image for them. This would really give you a headache.
5.) Production Designer for an indie film about Ancient Egypt.
Indie films are great. A lot of them are artistic and nature and it’s really awesome how they can come up with movies at such a low budget. I’ve come to realize that one of the hardest jobs in the world is to become a production designer for an ambitious indie film. Let’s say that the goal is to remake Cleopatra or the ten commandments. How can you come up with a grand set when your budget is 10$ and the closest thing you can substitute for a desert is the beach. Add that to the fact that your costumes are bathrobes and bed sheets. Now, that’s a nightmare.
4.) Embalmer.
The thought of it alone literally gives me chills. If there is one job that I couldn’t see myself doing then this is really on the list. One of my puppies died a few weeks ago and it is the first time we had a dead pet at home. It’s really a sad feeling because I ridiculously love my dogs. So the minute I found out that Woofy was not breathing, I really wanted to hug him for the last time and place him in a box and bury it. But then, rigor mortis kicked in. The puppy was starting to become really stiff/hard. It was a really morbid feeling. My desire to hug Woofy for the last time just went down the drain. From then on, I figured that a job that evolves dead creatures is no where near my ideal job. Add that to the fact that I was really traumatized by frog dissection in High School. I threw up a couple of times seeing the guts of Kermit, the name of my frog, spewing from his helpless body. This is also the reason why I’m not a fan of a famous Filipino delicacy, the Balot. In fact, I don’t understand why a Catholic country like us who is pretty much against abortion eat it. So need I say more on why the art of embalming is not for me?
3.)Shoe shiner of Imelda Marcos.
I don’t know what’s weirder. Is it weird to become her shoe shiner because she has a lot of shoes or because she is related to me? I think it needs no further explanation I’ll just go with both.
Visit Iraq. It's more than the usual swim.
2.)Secretary of tourism for Iraq.
Iraq wants you! How can you ask tourists to come to this country when you have a death toll higher than the obesity rates in the U.S.? Furthermore, it’s hard to entice people to come and visit Iraq when the media shows you negative images of the country. Even a buy one take one tickets to Iraq will not do the trick.
1.) Donald Trump’s hair stylist!
‘Nuff Said!!!
