Black Girls About Town: Part Un...

Tis the season to be jolly…and Black…hehehe. I contacted the Black women in the area so that we could have an outing in the city. There were only four of us be we had a good time. The plan was for us to go to this big mall on the outskirts of town but two of them (the tall two) had a meeting in the city so we went with them. Rewind: The week before I had been contacted my one of the teachers who lives in my building about being on the cover of the local foreigner magazine. A designer had been sitting next to her in a waiting room and asked her if she wanted to do it. She said yes, so the designer asked if she had a friend who contrasted her well. She thought of me…hehehe. Fast Forward: The meeting we went to was the planning meeting for the photo shoot. Apparently the design team had contacted the two who were with us about being on the cover. So it looks like there was a gap in communication between the designer and the magazine. I wasn’t upset though because it’s good to see some brown faces are gonna be on it anyway. At their shoot, the editor asked them for my information. They want me to do one of their covers…we’ll see. After the meeting we headed out to an amazing Italian restaurant per the recommendation of the editor. The food was sooooooooo good. This is the closest to Italian food that I’ve gotten since I’ve been here…o wait, with the exception of the restaurant in Hiroshima that Michelle and I went to last November. After dinner, we headed to a game center to take some purikura (silly photo booth pictures) before heading home. We’ll have to do it again soon.
