Coming to a Cinema/Catwalk Near You

Ok a couple of stories, one recent, one I forgot to write about that you might find amusing. Firstly, the AIESEC Ife people want to attract more SNs to come here. So they thought, let's make a promotional video. So yours truly spent one weekend in his first acting experience.
Basically, I was running around the campus, being greeted by AIESECers, told to strut "desperado style" down the road dark shades, playing basketball (I realised how unfit and unskilled I have become), chatting to a local about how gari (cassava flakes) are processed and a few other things. More scenes were planned but we ran out of time. So all you aiesecers look out for my beautiful face on some CD soon.
The other day I got a call from someone I don't know wanting me to "model" for him. I was intrigued and met up with him the next day. Basically, the guy saw me walking around campus and got my details from a friend. He is starting to make shirts with African prints but wants to sell them online to overseas customers. And of course he saw me and thought, damn that man looks like a fine specimen to show my wares (I am guessing that's what he thought, wouldn't you think?).
So this time I went to a photographer’s studio, put on different shirts and was told to "act natural" while I smiled, laughed, posed and had some young lady hanging off my arm and looking adoringly at me (it was ladies and men's fashion). So, not sure when these hot pics will be finding there way onto the internet but perhaps I'll let you know.
Another AIESECer wants me to narrate a documentary so I'll keep you posted on that too.
