Notable news & results from TV last week:
Monday Night Raw (7/3):
Ronda Rousey came out to the ring, but was interrupted by her former best friend and tag team partner Shayna Baszler, telling Ronda that no one wanted to hear her talk. Ronda said that Shayna owed her an explanation for betraying her on Saturday at Money in the Bank. Shayna fired back, reminding Ronda that she wouldn't even be in WWE if it weren't for Shayna, and that unlike Rousey, Baszler paid her dues and worked her way up through the independent wrestling scene. She then went on to say that the only thing she owed was an apology for bringing Ronda into WWE. Ronda tried to choke Shayna out, but Shayna countered into an ankle lock, before hitting Ronda with a knee strike and walking away.
Sonya Seville & Chelsea Green won tag team turmoil to become the number one contenders to the WWE Women's Tag Team Championships. The match started with Sonya Neville & Chelsea Green taking on Indi Hartwell & Candice LeRae. After eliminating Indi & Candice, they also eliminated Emma & Nikki Cross, before also facing and eliminating Dana Brooke & Tegan Nox. The final team to enter was Katana Chance & Katana Chance, who Sonya & Chelsea also eliminated to become number one contenders. match length-11:55.
Becky Lynch came out to the ring. She said that she can move on from not winning Money in the Bank, but that she can't move on from Trish Stratus. She called out Trish, telling her to come out to the ring so they could end things. Trish Stratus and Zoey Stark came out, and Trish said that she wasn't medically cleared to compete. Becky said that she would fight Zoey instead, saying that Zoey was better than Trish anyways, and a match between Becky and Zoey was set for next week on Raw.
Rhea Ripley defeated Natalya to retain the Women’s World Championship. The match opened with Natalya attacking Rhea from behind as the champion was making her way to the ring. The match was back and forth as both women were able to get in various degrees of offense. Natalya nearly made Rhea tap with the Sharpshooter, but Rhea got to the bottom rope. Rhea hit Natalya with the Riptide to successfully retain the title. match length-12:45.
After the match, Rhea continued to beat Natalya down, but the WWE Women's Tag Team Champions Liv Morgan & Raquel Rodriguez came to her aid. Rhea got out of the ring, and Raquel stared down the champion.
Backstage, Ms. Money in the Bank Iyo Sky came face to face with Women's World Champion Rhea Ripley. Iyo said she would see Rhea around, and the champion responded that cashing in on her would be the biggest mistake of Iyo's life. Rhea then complained to Damian Priest and Dominik Mysterio about Liv and Raquel coming to the aid of Natalya, saying that she would make them regret getting involved in her business.
NXT (7/4):
Blair Davenport defeated Roxanne Perez. The match started off hot, with Roxanne attacking Blair from behind while Blair was making her way to the ring. After a back and forth match, Blair was finally able to put Roxanne down for the three count. match length-12:02.

Kelani Jordan defeated Tatum Paxley. In her NXT TV singles debut, Kelani managed to defeat Tatum with veteran Dana Brooke in her corner. Kelani got the pinfall win after hitting a stunner out of nowhere on Tatum. match length-2:47.
After the match, Cora Jade came out to "congratulate" Kelani, before warning Kelani that any friend of Dana's is her enemy. Kelani challenged Cora to a match right then and there, but Cora said that no one tells her what to do, before walking away.

After the match, Jacy beat down Lyra, before tearing up her entrance wings.
A vignette was shown of Kiana James entering her office which had been filled with paint by Gigi Colin.

WWE Women's Champion Asuka came out to the ring, but was quickly interrupted first by Bianca Belair and then Charlotte Flair. The three brawled, before Ms. Money in the Bank Iyo Sky attacked Asuka with the briefcase. Bayley hit a Rose Plant on Asuka onto the briefcase, before Iyo hit the champion with a moonsault. Iyo told Bayley she was going to cash in, but before the official could ring the bell, Bianca attacked Bayley and Charlotte attacked Asuka. Bianca, Bayley, and Iyo (who is still Ms. Money in the Bank) were left laid out on the floor, Charlotte stood tall in the ring, and Asuka escaped with her title.
NXT Level Up (7/7):

TBS Champion Kris Statlander was interviewed backstage, where she said that she would defend her title anywhere and against anyone.
AEW Collision (7/8):
Willow Nightingale was originally supposed to compete tonight against Athena in the Women's Owen Hart Cup Tournament semifinals, but it was announced on Twitter hours before the show that she had suffered injuries earlier in the week while competing on July 4 and 5 at NJPW Strong Independence Day in Japan. The match is being moved to the Friday, July 14, edition of AEW Rampage, in an effort to give Willow a chance to get medically cleared.
Julia Hart defeated Bambi Hall. match length-2:20.
Other news & updates from last week:
According to a report from Fightful Select on Monday afternoon, the rumor that had circulated leading up to Money in the Bank about Charlotte Flair replacing Zelina Vega in the Women's Money in the Bank ladder match was false. Charlotte's current program with WWE Women's Champion Asuka and Bianca Belair has been planned since before she returned a few weeks ago.
In an Instagram caption on Monday, Ronda Rousey noted that the length of the WWE Women's Tag Team Championship match at Money in the Bank had gotten cut 3 times. The match ended up being 9 minutes long. This isn't the first time that Ronda has been vocal in her criticism about the amount of time given to women's matches, as she expressed similar frustration after her match with Liv Morgan at SummerSlam 2022 was only given about 4 and a half minutes.
In significantly more exciting news regarding the women's division in WWE, the July 3 edition of Monday Night Raw, nearly every member of the Raw women's division was featured on-screen in some capacity. 21 of the 23 women on the roster were featured, plus an appearance by SmackDown superstar Iyo Sky. The only 2 women who weren't on the July 3 edition of Raw were Piper Niven and Xia Li.
On Wednesday, July 5 at day 2 of NJPW Independence Day, Willow Nightingale lost the NJPW Strong Women's Championship to Giulia. For those who aren't familiar with Giulia, she is one-third of the current Artist of Stardom champions in the Japanese all-women's promotion Stardom.
According to WWE, the June 30 edition of SmackDown and WWE Money in the Bank (both of which took place at the O2 Arena in London, England) generated a combined gate of more than $5.4 million. Additionally, the June 30 episode of SmackDown was the highest-grossing SmackDown of all-time, and WWE Money in the Bank was the highest-grossing arena event of all-time.
WWE also announced that this year's Money in the Bank marked the highest-grossing arena event for venue merchandise in WWE history, and sponsorship revenue was up 9 percent versus the record set in 2022.
Viewership for this year's event jumped 17 percent from last year's record, as well as surpassing the viewership of the last U.K. premium live event (Clash at the Castle) by 30 percent.
On Friday, WWE announced that this year’s Survivor Series event will take place on Saturday, November 25, 2023. The announcement included no mention of the WarGames theme from the 2022 event. Both the Survivor Series event itself, as well as Friday Night SmackDown the night before will take place at the Allstate Arena in Chicago, Illinois. This is the same building where several other WWE events have been held, including NXT TakeOver: WarGames in 2019, Survivor Series 2019, and most recently hosted Hell in a Cell 2022.
Dave Meltzer's ratings for WWE Money in the Bank 2023 have been announced. The WWE Women's Tag Team Championship match between Ronda Rousey & Shayna Baszler and Liv Morgan & Raquel Rodriguez received 2.75 stars, while the women's Money in the Bank ladder match was given a rating of 4 stars. Additionally, the Women's World Championship match between Rhea Ripley and Natalya on the July 3 edition of Monday Night Raw received a rating of 3.75 stars.
According to Sean Ross Sapp of Fightful, Vince McMahon was backstage at Friday Night SmackDown on July 7 at Madison Square Garden. It is worth noting that MSG isn't far from WWE HQ in Connecticut, and Vince has been known to be backstage at shows close to where WWE corporate offices are.
Dave Meltzer of Wrestling Observer Newsletter reported on Sunday, July 9 that the upcoming July 21, 2023 edition of Friday Night SmackDown will be airing on FS1 instead of Fox, due to Fox coverage of the FIFA Women's World Cup. This week's show on July 14 is still set to air on Fox as usual.

Bringing you… Trish Stratus. P͟e͟n͟n͟e͟d͟ ͟B͟y͟ Ivy.
Bringing you the idol of my entire life, the one and only Ms. Stratus. Devoted Mother and apparent Wife. Please make note of the word apparent here. Safe to say the 7x Women’s Champion is hardly known for her risqué behavior having been happily married for close to twenty years, yet all is not as rosey as it may appear. The once High School Sweethearts have hit multiple bumps in the road, but as of recent it has became nearly impossible to live with. The comfortability of their life as they know it has led to a dull, steadfast and lifeless marriage which has now seen them go on nearly six months of no intimacy. Not just sex, but basic displays of affection such as kissing. Depression has well and truly kicked in for the once bright and bubbly Canadian whom now only see’s herself a Mommy. Not as the multiple times Babe of The Year and Sex Symbol she was once considered back in her hay day. Leading to rather.. out of character behaviours such as clubbing and drinking in excess.
C͟o͟n͟n͟e͟c͟t͟i͟o͟n͟s͟/͟P͟l͟o͟t͟s͟ ͟M͟a͟s͟t͟e͟r͟l͟i͟s͟t͟:͟
a) Trish & Muse have been friends for a very long time. Muse can read Trish like a book and can see that she is going through some emotional turmoil. Although she is being hush about the entirety of her struggles, Muse can quite clearly see Trish going down what could be considered a slippery path and wants to help in anyway they can.
b) Muse has been Trish wing partner throughout her discovery’s of a more edgy and rebellious take on life. They have been with her throughout and perhaps at some points even encouraged her less than angelic behaviour. (Role Filled - Damian Priest)
c) Trish & Muse have known each other for a prolonged period of time. There has been some sexual tension between the two, but due to Muse’s unwavering respect, not only for Trish, but for her family, nothing has come of it other than innocent flirting. Even as Trish’s desire to be unfaithful grows, this person isn’t the one she goes to out of nothing other than she deeply cares for this person’s opinion of her. (Role Filled - Damian Priest)
d) After an impromptu visit to a wrestling show afterparty, Trish soon finds herself remarkably drunk unto the point of lacking the ability to remember the entirety of the night, only having blurry flashbacks. Trish wakes up in Muse’s bed, of whom she flirted with the entire night and whom she lured back to her hotel room for a night of steamy passion. This was her first infidelity and the realization of such left her in a state of shock the next morning, kicking this person out of her room angrily.
e) Muse learns of Trish’s infidelity after seeing a heated exchange between the two parties involved - they take it upon themselves to confront Trish about it, for whatever reason, but the two become entangled in another aggressive exchange which leads to some obvious bad blood.
f) This is the Muse that ultimately leads Trish to do the moral thing and file for a divorce from her husband and ultimately reveal the truth. This happens a good few weeks/months into a passionate affair between the two, upon growing tired of being secretive, Muse gives Trish an ultimatum. Them or her Unhappy Marriage. - (Role Filled - Wardlow)
g) The relationship between these two was certainly one that was unexpected. The way Trish’s life had been going could definitely be described as somewhat of a midlife crisis - this would be the tipping point of it. Affairs had become a regular at this point, for both she and her husband.. but this one was definitely in unexpected. To have a sexual relationship with someone so much younger wasn’t on the agenda, but an exciting rollercoaster, nonetheless. (Role Filled - Barthel)

The Art Of Love | 2
Pairing :Kim Taehyung x reader
PART 1
STORY
Its the first day of classes, I am rushing towards the cafeteria. My hairs uncombed in a messy bun, and my blue unicorn pjs even messier.
Not many people are in the cafeteria, I guess not many people are stupid enough to select a early class. I drag myself across the hall towards the buffet. Taking a dish and a bowl I started to fill them up.
“Well, aren’t you the chirpiest bird in the morning.” A raspy but somehow smooth voice purred in my ear from behind. I turned to see who it belonged to and it was one of the guys from yesterday. His eyes were of dark chocolate colour and he had thick lashes that I instantly envy. I can’t exactly remember his name but it was something Kim. But I smile sarcastically in response and said “Yeah the chirpiest.”
He chuckled and it was a light chuckle and laced with a hum of amusement at the matter. My lips instantly curled into a smile at this and my cheeks heated up. He extended his hand as we moved ahead in the line and said “ Kim Taehyung.”
I took his hand and shook it. His hands were huge and engulfed mine completely. “ Y/N Y/L/N.” I said. He gave me a one sided smile. “So you are taking Lit 101 too I am guessing.” He said. “Yup.” I said popping the p.
By this time we reached a empty table he took a seat across from me. His features looked even more prominent in this morning light. We were both eating silently when he suddenly raises his hand and shouts “Jonnie, here.” I turn around to find another on of the guys from yesterday standing with the food tray and with a wide grin that I am assuming is directed towards Taehyung I turn back around and continue eating. He takes a seat next to Taehyung and his eyes land on me. He gives me a huge grin and his whole face lit up. “Hi. I am Kim Namjoon.” Taehyung probably saw the question coming next and said “No we aren’t brothers.”
I nod and offer a smile to Namjoon “Y/N Y/L/N.”
As I was done with break fast I got up and walked out of the hall and as soon as I was I the Door I sprint to my room. I had 20 min before class and it took 10 mins to reach the class. I change in a hurry, apply just a little bit of make up, Grab the things I packed last night for today and again made a run for it.
Nearing the corner of the class I slowed down and before entering the class I smoothed out my hair. As soon as I enter I find a huge over table and people seating in chairs. I took a seat that was empty near the window and the board. Soon the class had piled up and every chair was taken. I looked up from the book I was reading and right opposite of me sat non other that Taehyung. his hairs were now in place instead of what I saw yesterday and in the morning. Although he looked quite good in both. He gave me a sheepish smile after nothing that I was looking at him. I smiled back. He was about to say something but a loud and authoritative voice cut him.
“Welcome To Literature 101, I am Professor Scott.” his voice was smooth and his accent British.
I whisper “Obviously the guy teaching lit is British.” and the boy sitting in front of me looks at me and smiled. “Obviously.” He says before turning back.
After professor Scott tells us about the course and how everything is gonna work He says “Lets get this first lesson started. I am hoping everyone has read the Romeo and Juliet. Who is going to tell me what they thought about it.” Almost everyone's hand went up instantly including mine.
“Lets start with you.” He said pointing at Taehyung. “Mr. Kim.”
“ The notion of two people in love that are divided by social stratus is relatively familiar. And the characterization are quite straight forward. It is a celebration of love and the ends people go for love.”
“That’s enough, You across from him.” He said “Ms. Y/L/N.”
“UMM..” I took a sharp breath in. “I feel that Romeo and Juliet is a story that of lust and not love.” I uneasily glanced at professor Scott. “And why is that Ms. Y/L/N.”
“Romeo, goes to his enemy’s party because he fancied the host’s hot niece, Rosaline, he then losses interest in her and decides he no longer wants to die for her beauty…because he just saw her cousin, Juliet was way hotter who he fall instantly ‘in love’ with her instead. It was the initial High of lust that made them take irrational decision along the way.” I said
“Hmm...Does anyone want to comment on that.” He says
A guy with blonde hair raised his hand. “Yes Mr. Denials” Prof. Scott said
“Keeping in mind that the play took place in Renaissance era I think that it brought a new light on love. Romeo was a hopeless romantic, even after being rejected by Rosaline he goes to the ball looking for her. He there see’s a girl attractive and falls for her as she just like him was romantic. I think that this tale shows the flaws of love and yes they made irrational decisions but that's what loves makes people do.” The guy say
I raised my hand “Yes Ms.Y/L/N.”
“I believe that William Shakespeare didn’t intended this to be a love story.He probably wrote this as a tragedy. It was supposed to show flaws among social class and teenagers and their quote unquote love.” I say “The romance was quick and empty. There is no depth to their love.”
As I finished Taehyung’s hand went up. “Yes Mr. Kim.”
“This play brought the idea that TRUE LOVE IS WORTH DYING FOR." He says
Another girl’s hand went up “Go on Ms. Potts.”
“In Romeo and Juliet, the headlong passion and excitement of young love is celebrated, even though confusion leads to the deaths of the young lovers. But through their deaths, and the example their love set for their parents, the two families vow to be reconciled to each other.”
I raised my hand “Ms. Y/l/n.”
“I believe that It was the immaturity of not only Romeo and Juliet but also of the friar that resulted in four deaths. Also I think the biggest reason this story is even a little tangible is because its based and written in an era where mobiles and better communication didn’t exist. Because if it did Romeo would have got the message in time they would have ran away and later realised that they didn’t even know each other and once the hear and attraction fades there’s nothing left.”
Professor Scott Clapped his hand “You have brought out a perfect point Ms. Y//L/N. Now we are nearing the end and for your next class I want you all you see how the story of Romeo and Juliet would play out if it was in Morden times. And Ms. Y/L/N I except you to write on what you just said. Class dismissed.”

Harvard Fitness Health Supplement Company #1 Authentic Supplements
Harvard Fitness People that follow my stuff know I generally write about nutrition, supplements, training, and other topics that are more science based than subjective topics, such as what is covered in this article. I decided to shuck my science geek persona, and write on a topic I know will be helpful to thousands of would be and want to be fitness models.
As well a known "hard core" science based no BS writer, why I am writing what some will perceive as a "fluff" article? Over the years I have gotten hundreds, perhaps thousands, of gals that ask me via email, letters, or in person "how do I become a fitness model Will? You have been in the business a long time, surly you of all people should know." I get this from newbies and I get this from women that have been at it a while but have been unable to "break in" effectively.
So You Wanna Be a Fitness Model?
The fact is, I have been in the fitness, health, and bodybuilding biz a long time, and though I am known as a science and nutrition based "guru" type, I have trained many a fitness athlete, and judged fitness and figure/bikini shows for the NPC, Fitness America, Fitness USA, and other federations as well as given marketing and business advice to all sorts of athletes, including fitness models. So, it's not as far fetched as it might seem that I am going to use this space to cover a non scientific topic, which is, how one goes about being a fitness model.
This article will be useful to both experienced and novice types looking to "break in" to the biz. If you are already a professional and successful fitness model, I am sure you may still glean some useful information from this article.
First the bad news, there is no one way to become a successful fitness model. There is no single path or magic secret. There are however some key things a person can do to greatly improve their chances of "making it" in the fitness biz as a model, and perhaps using that success as a launching pad to greater things, such as movies, TV, etc.
Several of the top fitness models (Trish Stratus and Vicki Pratt come to mind but there are many others) have gone onto careers in entertainment of all kinds. Bottom line, though there is no magic secret to being successful as a fitness model, this article will be about as close to a blueprint for success as you will find.
"Do I need to compete?"
This is a question I get asked all the time and it's not an easy one to answer. In fact, the answer is (drum roll) yes and no. The person has to deicide why they are competing in the first place to answer that question. For example, do you need to compete if your goal is to be a successful fitness model?
The answer is no. Many of today's well-known fitness models have never competed, or they competed in a few small shows and it was clearly not part of their success as fitness models. However, competing does have its potential uses.
One of them is exposure. At the upper level shows, there will often be editors, publishers, photographers, supplement company owners, and other business people. So, competing can improve your exposure. Also, competing can make sense if you are trying to build a business that is related to your competing or will benefit from you winning a show.
For example, say you have a private training gym you are trying to build. Sure, having the title of say Ms Fitness America, or winning the NPC Nationals and being an IFBB pro, will help your reputation and the notoriety of your business. There are many scenarios were it would help to have won a show for a business or other endeavors.
On the other hand, it must be realized that winning a show does not in any way guarantee success in the business end (and it really is a business) of being a fitness model. The phone wont ring off the hook with big offers for contracts. Also, it's very important to realize that it's common that the 4th or 6th or 8th place finisher in a fitness or figure show will get more press than the winner. Why? Though the winner might have what it took to win that show, it's often other gals the editor, publishers, supplement companies etc, feel is more marketable.
I have seen it many times where the winner was shocked to find she didn't get nearly the attention she expected and other girls who placed lower have gotten attention in the form of photos shoots, magazine coverage, etc. Something to keep in mind when you ask yourself the important question "do I need to compete and if so, why am I competing?" Answer that question, and you will know the answer to the heading of this section. Winning a title of some sort can be a stepping stone, but it is not in itself any guarantee of success in the fitness industry. It's like a college degree; it's what you do with it.
Now. If you compete for the fun of it, then by all means go for it, but the above is focusing on competing as it relates to the business aspect of being a fitness model.
Right body, wrong federation?
Ok, so after reading the above you have decided you are going to compete, or will compete again. If you don't plan to compete, you can skip this section. The biggest mistake I see here is so many gals have the right body for the wrong federation. Each federation has its own judging criteria and a competitor will do poorly simply because they didn't bother to research which show would be best suited for them.
I will give you a perfect real world example of this. Recently I judged a show whose criteria for the figure round was the women should be more on the curvy softer side with some tone, vs. being more muscular and athletic with less bodyfat that other federations might allow. At this show one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen came out. She was very proportional, great muscle tone, lean, and athletically shaped with narrow hips and waist and wider shoulders. How did she do at this show? She didn't even place in the top ten!
Why? Because she was not what we were instructed to look for and didn't fit the criteria. After the show I informed her that she looked great, but this may not the federation for her. I told her she had much more of an NPC type body, where a little more muscle, athletic build, and less bodyfat is rewarded.
The following week I was judging an NPC fitness, figure, and bodybuilding show and there she was. How did she do? She won the entire show with all judges voting her number one unanimously.

How to Make It As a Fitness Model!
Individuals that follow my stuff realize I for the most part expound on sustenance, enhancements, preparing, and different themes that are more science based than emotional points, for example, what is canvassed in this article. I chose to shuck my science nerd persona, and compose on a point I realize will be useful to a great many would be and need to be wellness models.
Also a known "in-your-face" science based no BS essayist, why I am composing what some will see as a "lighten" article? Throughout the long term I have gotten hundreds, maybe thousands, of ladies that ask me by means of email, letters, or in person "how would I become a wellness model Will? You have been in the business quite a while, irritable you, everything being equal, should know." I get this from novices and I get this from ladies that have been busy some time yet have been not able to "break in" adequately.
The truth of the matter is, I have been in the wellness, wellbeing, and lifting weights business quite a while, and however I am known as a science and nourishment based "master" type, I have prepared numerous a wellness competitor, and made a decision about wellness and figure/two-piece shows for the NPC, Fitness America, Fitness USA, and different alliances just as offered showcasing and business guidance to a wide range of competitors, including wellness models. Along these lines, it's not as unrealistic as it would appear to be that I will utilize this space to cover a non logical point, which is, the way one approaches being a wellness model.
This article will be valuable to both experienced and amateur sorts hoping to "break in" to the business. On the off chance that you are as of now an expert and fruitful wellness model, I am certain you may in any case gather some valuable data from this article.
First the awful news, there is nobody approach to turn into a fruitful wellness model. There is no single way or enchantment mystery. There are anyway some key things an individual can never really improve their odds of "making it" in the wellness business as a model, and maybe utilizing that accomplishment as a take off platform to more prominent things, for example, motion pictures, TV, and so forth
A few of the top wellness models (Trish Stratus and Vicki Pratt strike a chord however there are numerous others) have gone onto vocations in diversion, all things considered. Main concern, however there is no sorcery mystery to being fruitful as a wellness model, this article will be probably as near a plan for progress as you will discover.
"Do I need to contend?"
This is an inquiry I get posed to constantly and it is anything but a simple one to reply. Truth be told, the appropriate response is (drum move) yes and no. The individual needs to deicide why they are contending in any case to respond to that question. For instance, do you need to contend if you will likely be a fruitful wellness model?
The appropriate response is no. A significant number of the present notable wellness models have never contended, or they contended in a couple of little shows and it was plainly not piece of their prosperity as wellness models. Nonetheless, contending has its possible employments.
One of them is openness. At the upper level shows, there will frequently be editors, distributers, photographic artists, supplement organization proprietors, and other finance managers. In this way, contending can improve your openness. Additionally, contending can bode well in the event that you are attempting to fabricate a business that is identified with your contending or will profit by you winning a show.
For instance, say you have a private preparing exercise center you are attempting to construct. Indeed, having the title of state Ms Fitness America, or winning the NPC Nationals and being an IFBB star, will help your standing and the reputation of your business. There are numerous situations were it would assist with having won a show for a business or different undertakings.
Then again, it should be understood that triumphant a show doesn't in any capacity ensure accomplishment in the business end (and it truly is a business) of being a wellness model. The telephone wont ring free with huge proposals for contracts. Additionally, it's vital to understand that usually the fourth or sixth or eighth spot finisher in a wellness or figure show will get more press than the victor. Why? Despite the fact that the victor may have what it took to win that show, it's frequently different ladies the editorial manager, distributers, supplement organizations and so forth, feel is more attractive.
I have seen it commonly where the champ was stunned to discover she didn't stand out enough to be noticed she expected and different young ladies who set lower have stood out enough to be noticed as photographs shoots, magazine inclusion, and so on Something to remember when you ask yourself the significant inquiry "do I need to contend and assuming this is the case, for what reason am I contending?" Answer that question, and you will know the response to the heading of this segment. Winning a title or the like can be a venturing stone, yet it isn't in itself any assurance of accomplishment in the wellness business. It resembles a professional education; it's how you manage it.
Presently. On the off chance that you seek its fun, at that point by all methods put it all on the line, yet the above is zeroing in on contending as it identifies with the business part of being a wellness model.
Right body, wrong organization?
Alright, so in the wake of perusing the above you have concluded you will contend, or will contend once more. In the event that you don't plan to contend, you can avoid this part. The greatest mix-up I see here is such countless ladies have the correct body for some unacceptable alliance. Every league has its own making a decision about measures and a contender will do inadequately just on the grounds that they didn't try to investigate which show would be most appropriate for them.
I will give you an ideal certifiable illustration of this. As of late I made a decision about a show whose standards for the figure round was the ladies ought to be more on the awe-inspiring milder side with some tone, versus being more solid and athletic with less bodyfat that different organizations may permit. At this show perhaps the most wonderful ladies I have ever seen came out. She was extremely relative, extraordinary muscle tone, fit, and physically molded with restricted hips and midsection and more extensive shoulders. How could she do at this show? She didn't put in the best ten!
Why? Since she was not what we were told to search for and didn't fit the rules. After the show I educated her that she looked incredible, however this may not the organization for her. I revealed to her she had considerably more of a NPC type body, where somewhat more muscle, athletic form, and less bodyfat is remunerated.
The next week I was making a decision about a NPC wellness, figure, and working out show and there she was. How could she do? She won the whole show with all adjudicators casting a ballot her main consistently.
Then again, if your body type will in general be more adjusted and conditioned, yet with somewhat more bodyfat, more extensive (however not fat!) hips, you might be in an ideal situation contending in state the Fitness America Pageants. On the off chance that you will contend:
(1) discover precisely what the making a decision about standards is for that organization and
(2) go consider those to be as an onlooker for a few changed alliances and see which one your build, style, and so on will find a way into best.
(3) You need to choose if you genuinely have the athletic capacities to contend in a wellness rivalry (which requires a daily schedule) or a figure/swimsuit rivalry.
I frequently see ladies who might do well in a figure show yet truly don't have the athletic capacities do the schedules needed to be serious with different competitors in the show. A few shows will permit you to do the two rivalries and some wont.
Systems administration 101: customs...
In such countless regards, this is the region that will represent the moment of truth you in any business, but, individuals in the wellness business do an incredibly helpless occupation at it. In the event that you don't organize and advertise yourself appropriately, you can essentially disregard having any genuine accomplishment as a wellness model, or an achievement in basically any business. For space, we will adhere to wellness.
At the point when I previously began, I was a self promoting machine. I could be found at each show I thought may be a chance, strolling the isles of expos, weight training, shows, wellness show, and others. I gave out a zillion cards and I took 1,000,000 home with me, and circled back to every single one. I went to as numerous industry related gatherings, trips, parties, and so forth as I could get into. I currently have the standing and involvement with the business that I don't need to go to such a show except if I have a feeling that it, or have gatherings, yet they were very useful before all else.
I'm constantly stunned at the quantity of wellness models who get in touch with me who have never at any point been to the Arnold Classic Fitness Weekend, or the Mr. Olympia, or the exchange shows like the NNFA Expo West and others. On the off chance that you need to make it in the wellness business you sure as hellfire would be advised to deal with it like a business.
I have seen numerous a beautiful young lady who needs to be a wellness model who thinks in the event that they remain there looking pretty long enough, somebody will offer to put their face on the front of a magazine. News streak, there are a huge number of delightful ladies out there and to be seen, you need to hussle to get that professional every other person by systems administration your butt off, or having a decent specialist (on the off chance that you can bear the cost of something like this) who is doing it for you.
Pick a couple of significant industry shows to join in (some of which were referenced above) and go to them consistently. Have an arrangement of assault of precisely how you intend to showcase yourself and organization. Numerous wellness models, jocks, and so on consider a to be as one major gathering. On the off chance that that is you, at that point have some good times at the gathering, however don't think you are truly showcasing yourself as a serous money manager or competitor.
Something else that consistently astonishes me is the quantity of wellness models who either have no business cards, or have a few cards they printed up on their air pocket stream printer at home! They request that I help them or what ever and I state "give me your card" and they see me like "I'm so beautiful I ought not need a card you fool." This demeanor kills editors, photographic artists, scholars, and industry individuals quicker at that point on the off chance that they discovered you were actually a drag queen. Try not to do it. For each lovely young lady out there who thinks the world owes them some help, there are 100 who are prepared to act like experts.

Generation 1 overview:
Stratus Prism, a creative soul was born to parents Salt and Clarity Prism with a younger sister, Sugar. Being the oldest he was expected to assume the family business and be roped into an arranged marriage with another raw berry. Once the arranged marriage was a reality he was faced with and not some vague eventuality he would be faced with, Stratus ran away into the night to live with a friend he had made at the art shop he frequented, Candy Bloom, but not before sharing a sad goodbye with his sister who he was very close to. When he arrived at Candy’s home in Newcrest he was greeted not by Ms. Bloom but by her roommate, Tyrian Byzantine. Tyrian had assumed Stratus was a weirdo since he was just lingering outside while trying to confirm he was at the right place but once Tyrian confronted Stratus they hit it off straight away. Over time they realized they were interested in each other and finally became a couple and not too long after Tyrian was expecting. Stratus proposed and they soon tied the knot. Though the pregnancy made Tyrian feel very uncomfortable with himself and neither of them had any sort of communication skills. Tyrian ignored everything that wasn’t work and Stratus took comfort with Candy and it was at the end of Tyrian’s pregnancy that Candy discovered she too was pregnant with Stratus’s baby(babies). Tyrian and Stratus had their son, Goji Prism. And after the obvious drama involved with having an affair with Candy and getting her pregnant, Tyrian and Stratus decided to stay with each other and instead learn to work through their problems together and not isolate or sleep with mutual friends or anyone. Candy gave birth to triplets, Azalea, Blush and Carnation Prism. As the children approached the end of their toddlerhood well Goji Tyrian and Stratus decided to try for another child a final time resulting in their daughter Grape Prism. Stratus, Tyrian and Candy co-parented with Sugar coming over often to spend time with her brother, nieces and nephews. END GENERATION

How to Make It As a Fitness Model!
People that follow my stuff know I generally write about nutrition, supplements, training, and other topics that are more science based than subjective topics, such as what is covered in this article. I decided to shuck my science geek persona, and write on a topic I know will be helpful to thousands of would be and want to be fitness models.
As well a known "hard core" science based no BS writer, why I am writing what some will perceive as a "fluff" article? Over the years I have gotten hundreds, perhaps thousands, of gals that ask me via email, letters, or in person "how do I become a fitness model Will? You have been in the business a long time, surly you of all people should know." I get this from newbies and I get this from women that have been at it a while but have been unable to "break in" effectively.
The fact is, I have been in the fitness, health, and bodybuilding biz a long time, and though I am known as a science and nutrition based "guru" type, I have trained many a fitness athlete, and judged fitness and figure/bikini shows for the NPC, Fitness America, Fitness USA, and other federations as well as given marketing and business advice to all sorts of athletes, including fitness models. So, it's not as far fetched as it might seem that I am going to use this space to cover a non scientific topic, which is, how one goes about being a fitness model.
This article will be useful to both experienced and novice types looking to "break in" to the biz. If you are already a professional and successful fitness model, I am sure you may still glean some useful information from this article.
First the bad news, there is no one way to become a successful fitness model. There is no single path or magic secret. There are however some key things a person can do to greatly improve their chances of "making it" in the fitness biz as a model, and perhaps using that success as a launching pad to greater things, such as movies, TV, etc.
Several of the top fitness models (Trish Stratus and Vicki Pratt come to mind but there are many others) have gone onto careers in entertainment of all kinds. Bottom line, though there is no magic secret to being successful as a fitness model, this article will be about as close to a blueprint for success as you will find.
"Do I need to compete?"
This is a question I get asked all the time and it's not an easy one to answer. In fact, the answer is (drum roll) yes and no. The person has to deicide why they are competing in the first place to answer that question. For example, do you need to compete if your goal is to be a successful fitness model?
The answer is no. Many of today's well-known fitness models have never competed, or they competed in a few small shows and it was clearly not part of their success as fitness models. However, competing does have its potential uses.
One of them is exposure. At the upper level shows, there will often be editors, publishers, photographers, supplement company owners, and other business people. So, competing can improve your exposure. Also, competing can make sense if you are trying to build a business that is related to your competing or will benefit from you winning a show.

The Way to Make It As a Fitness Model!
So You Wanna Be a Fitness Model?
People That follow my things know I normally write about nutritionsupplements, training, and other subjects which are more science based than abstract subjects, like what's covered in this report. I chose to shuck my science geek character, and write on a subject I know will be very helpful to tens of thousands of could be and wish to be fitness models.
As Nicely a famous"hard core" science established no BS author, why I am writing what some will perceive as a"fluff" post? Through time I have gotten hundreds, possibly thousands, of gals that ask me through email, letters, or even person"how do I become a fitness model Will? You have been in the business a long time, surly you of all people should know." I get this by beginners and I get this by girls which have been in it some time but have been unable to"break in" efficiently.
The Truth Is, I've been in the fitness, wellness, and bodybuilding biz years, although I am called a science and nourishment based"guru" kind, I have trained many a fitness athlete, also judged fitness and figure/bikini reveals for your NPC, Fitness America, Fitness USA, along with other federations in addition to given promotion and business information to all kinds of athletes, such as fitness models. Thus, it is not as far fetched as it may seem that I will use this area to pay for a non scientific issue, which is, how one goes about being a fitness model.
This Article will be useful to both novice and experienced types seeking to"break in" to the biz. If you're already a skilled and effective fitness product, I am certain that you might still glean some useful information in this report.
The bad news, there Is Not Any 1 way to Become an effective fitness product. There's not any single path or magical trick. There are nevertheless some crucial things someone can do to greatly improve their odds of"making it" in the fitness biz for a version, and possibly using that achievement as a launch pad to greater things, like films, TV, etc..
Many of the top fitness models (Trish Stratus And Vicki Pratt come to mind but there are lots of other people ) have gone to careers in entertainment of all types. The point is, although there's not any magic trick to becoming successful as a fitness model, this guide will be about as near a blueprint for success as you may find.
"Do I need to compete?"
This Is a question I have asked all of the time and it is not a simple one to answer. In reality, the solution is (drum roll) no. The individual must deicide why they're competing at the first place to answer that query. By way of instance, do you want to compete if your purpose is to be an effective fitness product?
The solution is no. Lots of today's Well-known exercise versions have not collaborated, or they competed at a few tiny displays and it was definitely not a part of the achievement as fitness versions. But, competing has its own possible uses.
One of Them is vulnerability. In the top level reveals, there'll continually be editors, photographers, publishers, nutritional supplement business owners, along with other small business people. So, competing may enhance your vulnerability. Additionally, competing may make sense if you're attempting to construct a company that's linked to a rival or will gain from you winning a series.
For Example, say you get a personal training gym you're working to build. Sure, obtaining the name of say Ms Fitness America, or even winning the NPC Nationals and being an IFBB expert, can help your standing along with the notoriety of your company. There are lots of situations were it might help to have won a display for a company or other jobs.
On another Hand, it has to be understood that winning a series doesn't in any way guarantee success in the company end (and it truly is a company ) of being a fitness model. The phone wont ring off the hook with large offers such as contracts. Additionally, it's extremely important to understand that it is common that the 4th or 6th or 8th place finisher at a fitness center or figure series will probably get more press than the winner. Why? Although the winner may have what it took to acquire that show, it is often other gals the editor, publishers, nutritional supplement firms etc, texture is much more marketable.
I Have seen it several occasions in which the winner was shocked to discover she did not get nearly the attention that she anticipated and other women who put reduced have gotten attention in the kind of photographs shoots, magazine protection, etc.. One thing to remember while you ask yourself the important question"do I need to compete and if so, why am I competing?" Answer that question, and you'll understand the solution to the heading of the section. Winning a name of some kind could be a stepping stone, but it isn't in itself any guarantee of success in the fitness market. It is just like a college diploma; it is exactly what you do with this.
Now. Should you Compete for the pleasure of it, then by all means go to this, however, the above will be focusing on competing since it is related to the business part of being a fitness model.
Right body, incorrect federation?
Ok, so following Studying the above you've decided you will compete, or may compete . If you do not intend to compete, then you can skip this part. The greatest mistake I see this is a lot of gals have the ideal body for the incorrect federation. Each federation has its own judging standards and a rival is going to do badly just because they did not bother to study which show will be best suited to them.
I will Provide you a Perfect real world illustration of the. Recently I realised that a series whose standards to get the figure across was that the girls should be on the curvy milder side with a few tone, vs. becoming more athletic and muscular with less bodyfat which other federations may let. At this series among the most gorgeous girls I have ever seen came out. She had been very proportional, good muscle tone, slender, and athletically formed with narrow shoulders and buttocks and wider shoulders. How did she perform in this series? She did not even put in the top ten!
Why? Since she wasn't What we had been instructed to search for and did not match the standards. Following the show I advised her that she looked great, however that might not the federation because of her. I informed her she had more of the NPC sort body, in which a bit more muscular, athletic build, and less bodyfat is honored.
The next week I had been estimating an NPC fitness, figure, And bodybuilding show and there she was. How did she perform? She won the whole series with judges votes her number one reluctantly.
Conversely, In case your physique will be more curved and toned, but using a bit more bodyfat, wider (although not obese!) Hips, you might be better off competing in state the Fitness America Pageants. If You're Going to vie:
(1) find out Just What the judging criteria is to get this particular federation and
(2) Go see these shows as a spectator for many distinct federations and determine which one your body, fashion, etc will fit into best.
(3) You need to choose in the event that you genuinely have the athletic skills to compete in a gym (that demands a regular ) or a figure/bikini contest.
I often see girls who'd do well at a figure series But don't have the athletic skills perform the routines necessary to be aggressive with other athletes at the series. Some displays will let you do both contests and some wont.
Media 101: dos and performn'ts...
In So many respects, this is the region that can make or break one into almost any company, and yet, men and women in the gym do an amazingly bad job at it. If you do not network and market yourself correctly, you can pretty much forget about getting any real success as a fitness product, or a triumph in just about any small business. For the interest of space, we'll adhere to fitness.
When I started out, I had been a self Advertising machine. I could be discovered at each show I thought could be a chance, walking the isles of trade shows, bodybuilding, reveals, fitness series, along with many others. I gave out a zillion cards and I took a thousand house with me, and followed up on each and every one. I went on as many business related meetings, parties, excursions, etc., as I could enter. I finally have the standing and expertise in the industry I do not need to go to this series unless I feel like it, or have encounters, but they had been very valuable at first.
I'm always amazed In the amount of fitness units who get me who've never been to the Arnold Classic Fitness Weekend, or even the Mr. Olympia, or the transaction shows such as the NNFA Expo West and many others. If you would like to make it at the fitness industry you sure as hell had better treat it like a company.
I Have noticed many a pretty girl who wishes to become a fitness model who believes should they stay there looking fairly long , somebody will provide to put their face on the cover of a magazine. News flash, you will find countless beautiful women on the market and also to be observed, you need to hussle to find that company like everybody else by media off your butt, or using a fantastic representative (if you're able to afford anything ) who's performing it to you.
Decide on a few Significant business shows to attend (a few Of that were cited above) and visit them annually. Take a plan of attack of precisely how you intend to advertise yourself and community. Many fitness models, bodybuilders, etc visit a series as one huge celebration. If that is you, then have fun in the party, but do not think you're actually marketing yourself as a serous small business athlete or person.
Another Thing that constantly amazes me is that the variety of fitness units who have no business cards, or possess some cards that they published up in their bubble jet printer in your home! They ask me to assist them or what ever and I say"give me your card" and they look at me like"I am so pretty I should not need a card you fool." This mindset turns off photographers, editors, authors, and business people quicker then when they found out you're actually a transvestite. Do not do it. For every pretty woman out there who believes the world owes them a favor, there are 100 that are prepared to behave like professionals.
Ever wonder why a few fitness Version you understand is doing better than you're even though you realize you're more economical than her? Which might be why. . .never go into a show to community without great cards, bios, and professionally performed body and head shots you'll be able to contribute to stated editors, publishers, photographers, business forms, etc.. Do not stand around looking pretty supposing they'll discover you, find them and introduce yourself. And of course it should go without saying that you ought to be in good shape and also have something of a tan to look your finest.
You would like to visit the shows and celebration? Fine, but do it privately after the job is completed and do not make a fool out of yourself in some business sponsored get together. Hell, I had been almost poured into a taxi at last years Arnold Classic after visiting a sushi spot with a few well know business kinds and companies (you know who you are!) But no one found me! We had our own little personal get together after the show to let loose.
Allow me to Give you one closing real world example of how NOT to advertise yourself. This past year I had been on retainer as a consultant to some mid sized nutritional supplement firm. The owner of the firm asked me if I knew a few fitness product types that could operate his booth to get a trade show. Actually, he asked"unknowns, some new faces people had not seen yet but had real potential to grow with the company." I went and found him two these gals I thought fit the bill.
He offered to cover their flights, space, And food and a thousand bucks per day for the days work. The 2 women were advised to be in the booth 9am sharp. The evening before in the resort, I saw that the two women getting in a taxi at 11pm so dressed to kill, obviously on their way out to party. The following day they showed up in the booth an hour and a half late and hung over! What was the consequence of the? (1) it embarrassed me to no end as I had recommended them to the business owner (two ) they'd never receive work from that business again (3) they'd not get any work out of me and (4) that they wouldn't find a mention from either people to different jobs.
I see that this Kind of Thing constantly at the fitness biz, and it is not restricted to fitness versions. Surprisingly, a couple of weeks after the series they emailed me and the business owner trying to know when their next project is! Amazing...
Who loves you baby?
If There's one universal fact, it is the camera loves you or it doesn't. Any skilled photographers will say this. For some unknown reason, some folks are extremely photogenic and a few aren't. Truth be known, there are a few well-known fitness versions (who will stay nameless as they'd probably smack me the next time that they watched me) that are not really that appealing in person. It is just that the camera loves them and they're extremely photogenic, but not terribly pretty in person.
Conversely, I've observed the inverse many occasions; a woman who's better looking in person than in photos. This is the destiny of the individual who would like to become a model of any sort, such as a fitness product. If you discover you aren't too photogenic, continue working with various photographers before you find one that actually catches you nicely and cover that photographer handsomely!
But to be bluntly honest, there are also a few desire to Be fitness models that are not"unphotogenic", they are simply"fugly"! There are a number of individuals around who don't have any business seeking to become fitness models. It doesn't make them bad people, it just means that they will need to snap out of the delusions and locate a livelihood they're better suited to, such as radio character....
"How do I get in the magazines?"
This Section kind of incorporates everything I have covered previously, and adds in some added approaches. As an instance, as I mentioned previously, competing in fitness shows and figure/bikini shows can boost your vulnerability, thus obtaining the interest of a magazine writer or photographer. Networking properly at the a variety of trade shows may have exactly the identical impact, and obviously using a fantastic portfolio accomplished by a photographer that actually captures your appearance, a fantastic website, etc., will increase your possibility of getting to the magazines, or even obtaining advertising work, etc.
But, All These approaches are still Somewhat passive versus active in my own opinion. It is still the fitness product waiting to be"discovered." So far as I am concerned, waiting is for bus stops and pregnancy tests. Success waits for no man. . .or lady as the case me be. Therefore, after all of the above advice is considered as with an extra impact to obtaining you magazine protection, what else could be done?
For starters, you need to read And be acquainted with all of the magazines you would like to be in this that you know who's who and what the manner of the various celebrities are. I can tell you at this time, if state the Editor-in-Chief of some good sized bodybuilding or fitness books and says"hi, I am the Bob Smith what's your name?" Along with the fitness model doesn't have any idea who Bob Smith is, Bob won't take kindly to this. Why should he? You need to know who the significant players are from the books you need to be viewed in. He's doing you the favor, not the other way round. You need to know who the significant players are and actively seek them out, do not wait for them to"discover" you.
If you look at the masthead in any magazine, It will inform you that the writer is, that the Editor-in-Chief is and so on. The mailing address for this magazine, and frequently the web site and email, may also be discovered. What's to prevent you from looking up those titles and sending them your images and restart straight? Nothing, that is what. If you find a photograph spread you believe is actually well done, what's to prevent you from figuring out that the photographer is and calling them directly and sending them your pics? Nothing, that is what.
My point being, you need for a Rest in the Company, make The rest, do not sit there thinking it is searching for you, as it is not. Be proactive, not reactive! Luck is the residue of design. Achieve success by design. As my older brother used to convey to me as a child when I told him I had been too afraid to ask a pretty woman"what's the worst that can happen Will? All she can say is no." That is the worst that can happen to you personally.
Beware of web idiots, schlubs, morons, perverts, scum bags, and sleazoids!
This Part is kind of self explanatory but worth mentioning. Like all businesses that deal in amusement based networking (e.g., tv, theater, modeling, etc.), the fitness sector brings its far share of web idiots, schlubs, morons, perverts, scum bags, and sleazoids, to mention only a couple.
There's also the type of individual Called the Schmoe, but we'll leave that for a different time and place. Point is that you wish to fulfill the proper people while not becoming involved with that set of useless kinds that will just drag you down, delay you, or just flat out screw you up and above.
By Way of Example, a man comes up and states He wishes to"shoot you" to your publications, but what would you know of the man? He's got a camera and a few business cards, so making him a photographer right? Wrong! If a person want to take you and they're not a popular name (and you need to know who the well-known photographers are since you researched that currently!) , find out that they are. Do they have references you can call? Girls you may contact he's taken before and were pleased with the work? What celebrities has he printed in? Can he do it professionally or as a pastime? That kind of thing.
Another thing I see is that the significant web scam. I am amazed how Many women get scammed by those internet idiots. Recorded here is that you get what you pay for, so when a individual wishes to build you a web site at no cost, you're getting what you pay for. Yes, there's great money to be made on the'net, and the net can be great for marketing yourself and making contacts, but most of it's a scam.
You are better off paying a good web designer and web master who has experience with other fitness model types and has references you can talk to. I can't tell you the number of girls who have been screwed over by some internet thing that went to hell, like the"enthusiast" who volunteers to construct a totally free website and runs off without any money made from the website or places their selections on pornography websites and some of different items that made them repent like hell agreeing to the website in the first location.
Certainly, I Can not go down the list of all of the probable pitfalls of the internet idiots, Schlubs, morons, perverts, scum bags, and sleazoids on the market to be Located at the entertainment industry, but you get the idea. Be mindful!

BnS act 9 was perhaps the worst thing ncsoft did to jyansei/cricket and OOF im still feeling it. as if cricket hasn’t cried enough in the whole story (when master hong dies, when hajoon dies, when they see master hong in a flashback, when the old pupils bid them farewell, when ayona dies) this was too much oh my god!!! this was sthe worst
spoiler ramble undercut
alright ill try talk abt the act in chronological order so starting off, 1) why chundoon’s voice so deep lmao. in kr it was such a soft boy’s voice then in NA its like hansen from fgo where they gave him a 40 year old chainsmoker’s voice SLKGJSDKGH
the other thing i liked tho from the start is the whole premonition thing where it ends with cricket’s death
me, internally: why is it ALWAYS zaiwei
but anyway i loved how this led up to going into the backstreets of the hao bazaar and beating up some punks, leading up to this golden exchange with yunma fei. i laughed SO HARD
empress: you were illegally street fighting in hao bazaar? cricket: (sweats) .....sorry empress: that’s cool i did too at one point
YUNMA FEI IS HONESTLY SO COOL. best empress (sorry ms cyg)
anyway the whole exchange with yunma fei was pretty nice, because she lets you read a letter. cricket’s hesitation was so cute! i can imagine them being rlly flustered, and yunma fei just shaking their head like “dude you saved the continent like twice? why wouldn’t you have authority” sgksjdgh
so the letter is basically dowager tayhu (her name was ak in kr? idk) passively aggressively asking for HM Hero to show up and yunma fei and cricket both almost agree to decline the invitation...till nuya shows up with news about ryu. then cricket does a complete 180 and is like “sorry. i have to go” which is kinda....omg....i get that u love your kids but its due to these impulsive decisions that lead to disaster!!! its why your efforts are erased in the end!! just decide to decline for once sweetie!!
even yunma fei tries her best to convince you, but you and her both know that there’s no stopping you once you made your mind to go somewhere. but yunma fei’s concern was nice enough, i love the friendship and bond you share with her-- she cares about you a lot, and so do you. other than the fact she is an empress, cricket is gentle with her too
anyway so you go to dasari palace, after a bit of a scuffle with an old captain who worked in the stratus empire, which led to a very pretty map as i posted briefly before. when u arrive at the banquet...everything is super suspicious lmao!! even from just stepping in you can feel that this was so set up to go against you. bns story rule of thumb: someone invites you to someplace, they’ll be after ur life.
one thing tho is i love how cricket is so caring of their students,, when jinsoyun was feeling sick, they offered to be by her side the entire time and hold her hand..but of course, soyun can’t take the room and runs off. cricket chases after her but is stopped by the guards, and i find their frustration rlly cute sdjkgh
then you meet the dowager and ryu! ryu, no memories ryu. who wasn’t hanging with ken after all LMFAO anyway he asks to spar with you and cricket is forced to act like this is the first time theyve met and u can feel the pain in their responses
so sparring with ryu was easy enough. afterwards general hondu wrecks the party, then cricket decides to go rest. but of course, not before seeing their lovely darling daughter soyun! they decide to check up on them and their concern for their wellbeing was sweet (a lot more doting in kr but i digress lmao)
afterwards, in typical blade and soul fashion, the minute u go into your resting room shit hits the fan and assassins, stratus soldiers, fiends all go after you and your pupils. after a frustrating (i’m a flame gunslinger! i don’t have any mobbing skills for crying outloud!) escort mission you meet choi jina, who i BARELY remembered but you meet her briefly at the start of act 2 and she helps you with the wraithbloom mess
she’s also pretty much jung hado genderbent but we won’t talk about that
with the help of choi jina cricket and fam go into a hidden chamber...a place they’ll be in for a while give or take LMAO. after some discussion, cricket decides “my amnesiac kid can’t be left in this shithole so i have to go back to him” (although in kr, cricket refuses but is eventually persuaded by bunyang) and choi jina and cricket go through....a fucking stealth mission, because after the murder of the minister (which was NOT cricket’s fault--they were just doing their job of eliminating demons) they become a wanted man!
now, it wouldn’t be so bad if i had a functional laptop but i don’t so, that shit took me an entire hour and a half. i gave up at some point and just walked on the ground rather than roof to roof, because that is the WORST stealth mission in the entire game!! why!!! holy crap!!! i could rant over and over about the stealth mission but ill save that for twitter...
anyway after stealth mission, you knock out ryu, choi jina carries him, and back in the hidden chamber you go. ryu suddenly ~remembers~ all the fun times and tells you dowager tahyu’s planning a war! cricket, not finding it suspicious at all that ‘suddenly son remembers me? wow!’ is like ‘ok ok my boy, take me away, i gotta warn, yunma fei’ then they act like prisoner and shit and it was hilarious with lyn walking sprite cause you can’t walk in front of him HGJKG
ryu catches a spy - one of yunma fei’s - and after cricket writes their letter, they give it to senha and go. then there’s another escort mission! when you’re back with the fam, its a team effort to go to the great dragon pulse. and hell, i wouldve just made ryu do all the fighting cause my computer really hated that whole mission and i barely got through HA
anyway, shortly before the escort mission, bunyang and cricket have a small argument--bunyang is always so worried about their master, and cricket can’t do anything about it; it’s their job to do all these things, they can’t refuse because of the bigger picture. cricket promises to come back safely and they can be a family again, and in general the whole argument is really heartbreaking because HA. guess what happens after the escort mission
before i get to that, yunma fei actually arrives - alone, so no jung hado with her - shortly before shit hits the fan. she plops through the dragon pulse and it leads to some horrifying revelations. she said that cricket’s letter told her to come alone because they are sick and need help, and cricket says they never asked for that? and then its a mess because now yunma fei, talus empress, is alone and it’s all in the dowager’s plan.
quickly running back to their students with the empress... but they were too late.
ryu betrayed them. and bunyang...
pays the price.
as if to make matters worse, cricket really was ill, they had been poisoned shortly before and
collapses.
they wake up in prison - goddamn! this is the third time i’ve woken up in jail! as if im not constantly falsely accused of crimes already! and witness an empress-to-empress showdown. yunma fei is really best empress. she sassed dowager tayhu hard LMAO
choi jina arrives and lets you and yunma fei out but cricket’s mind is in shambles because holy fuck!!!! my son just died!!! and unfortunately they cant find the time to mourn because 1) they’re in jail and they are breaking out like fugitives. the next segment is cricket and co. break outta jail to find the rest of their kids.
when cricket does find them its so OUCH because their kids are obviously traumatized - especially bunah!!!!!!!! the flesh and blood sister of bunyang who just fucking DIED and really ... it was just too much,
yunma fei tries her best consoling you but obviously cricket can’t think properly. but they don’t have time to be crying, because there’s too much on the line, so they swallow their feelings and keep moving.
i’ll continue on a second post...

Day 1. “I Chose You”
Blood was pumping through her veins. She was nervous, she could almost feel the sweat dripping down her body through her Papaya race suit. The first EVER female Formula 1 driver chosen to drive for McLaren F1. She could almost feel the legacy of the team on her shoulders and she did not want to let them down. Sally’s debut season in Formula 1 had been tough but she knew it wasn’t ever going to be an easy battle. This weekend, however, was different. She had qualified 8th on the grid, she could win her first points this weekend. She was nervous, excited but most of all, she was determined.
The formation lap was done, she was in position. Her hands gripped the wheel ready for the light sequence. One by one the red lights above the track illuminated. Sally could see all five lights illuminated. Time seemed to slow to a halt, how long were they on for? A minute? 30 seconds? Less than a second? Sally couldn’t tell.
The lights went out, Sally felt a surge of adrenaline through her body as her feet acted on instinct. In seconds she was up to 100MPH quickly approaching turn 1. She could almost sense the other drivers around her. Through her tiny mirror she could see 2 cars come into contact and a front wing go flying off the track. “Fuck, that best not bring out a safety car” she muttered to herself.
Fortunately for Sally, no Yellow flags were waved- she could concentrate on setting herself up for the infamous Eau Rouge turn. Sally aimed her car towards the top of the hill. Suddenly she felt the McLaren lurch to the right momentary confusion led to stark realisation - she was going sideways at 150 MPH up the Eau Rouge hill! “SHIT!!” was all she could say before her car flipped and everything went black…
Sally woke up to strange surroundings. She could hear slow mechanical beeping, feel soft fabric around her body- was she dead? Is this what it feels like to die? She opened her eyes to find a doctor peering down at her. “Ms Fielding, can you hear me?” Sally nodded her head slowly, unable to muster the words, the confusion increasing as each second passed on. “Ms Fielding, I am Dr Stratus. You had a nasty accident on track and lost consciousness but I am pleased to say the HALO saved your life. Take some time to rest up and come around, you’re going to have the Mother of all headaches but you’ll be back on your feet before Silverstone.” Dr Stratus smiled and walked away leaving Sally to adjust to the bright lights and clinical decór.
Sally spent the next few hours replaying the incident in her head. Had she made a mistake or did someone else just collect her after making their own mistake? Who had hit her? Was it Verstappen? As her mind started to spiral she feared she would be in trouble with the team for making a mistake. She was terrified they might terminate her contract. This was her dream and Sally was not ready for it to end so quickly. She decided she’d lay around for long enough and left the medical centre in search of her team.
When she reached the McLaren garage in the Paddock she immediately saw her car or rather what was left of her car. It was a mangled wreck of carbon fibre and papaya body panels. Guilt washed over Sally so quickly she almost lost her balance. “You are so done for Sally you stupid bitch” she thought to herself. Panicked by her own thoughts Sally desperately looked around the garage for some kind of distraction. She noticed her teammate’s car wasn’t in the garage which meant Lando was still on track and the race still running. “Good, hopefully he can salvage something from this weekend for us” Sally thought to herself.
“What in the name of Senna are you doing here Sally?!”. Sally froze when she heard the voice of her boss (and financial backer) Zak Brown. “Well? Answer me!”
“I’m sorry Zak, I mustn’t of seen them in my mirror. I’m so sorry for causing all this damage I’m clearly not fit to be working for this team” as she spoke Sally could feel herself welling up. She refused to shed a tear. Not here. Not in front of the others.
“I couldn’t give two shits about that hunk of metal over there. What are you doing HERE and not in the medical centre? You should be resting!” Sally turned to look Zak in the eye, noticing nothing but the sheer concern and worry emitting from her boss. “I, I” Sally stammered, struggling to hold back the tears. “I’m not fit to be here Zak. This was our BEST chance at points this season and I couldn’t even compete a single lap! You should terminate my contract and employ somebody good. I hear Colton Herta is looking for a drive.” Sally exploded with emotion, her battle to withhold tears had been lost. She wanted the work to open up and swallow her in that moment.
Zak gently placed a hand on Sally’s shoulder and motioned for her to step into his office. “This is it” Sally thought, “ he’s going to give me my marching orders right now. She started to panic, her hands clenched into fits, her breathing became quick and shallow, her vision going blurry. She sat down without being directed. It was either that or pass out and she knew which she would rather do in front of Zak. Zak closed the office door and Sally felt time slow for a second time that day…
Zak sat across the desk from Sally, the look of concern and fear still etched across his face. “Sally”, said Zak, “you look like you’re about to vomit. Here, have some water.” Zak passed her a glass of water, Sally picked it up her hands shaking so much the water threatened to spill all over the desk. She put the glass down without taking a sip before anything else could go wrong.
Zak took a minute to compose he thoughts before opening his mouth: “Look. I’ve known you since you were little kicking ass on the go-kart track. I can safely say you are the next Lewis Hamilton of the sport, I have always thought that and I always will.” Zak took a moment to let that register on Sally’s face. “There are many talented drivers available on the market right now but none of them are you, Sally. Nobody I have witnessed has matched your skill, talent, determination and pure passion for the sport. Yes, today you fucked up but who hasn’t? You think Schumacher never made a mistake? He did. Lots of them.” Before Zak could continue, Sally interjected, “Please Zak, I’m nothing like Hamilton. I’m basically Latifi without a rich father.” Zak stared at Sally, wondering what he could say that would make her realise her potential. “Sally. I technically am not allowed to tell you this but you need to hear this. Before we ‘formally’ signed your contract I received 3 contract offers from some VERY strong drivers. Hamilton, Bottas and Ricciardo all wanted to drive for McLaren. But I didn’t even give the offers a second glance, Sally. I didn’t choose them, I chose you.”
~1 week later~
Blood was pumping through her veins again. She could feel the sweat dripping down her body inside her race suit. The first red light came on over head. Sally shifted in her seat, “okay, this is it. The British GP. Don’t fuck this up like last time” she said to herself. The second red light appeared. Almost immediately her mind got lost reliving the crash from the last race. Three red lights. All Sally could focus on was the accident, the mangled car… Four red lights. Sally was lost in the memory, she couldn’t focus on the track ahead of her, she started to panic desperately wanting to escape the flashback. Five red lights. Suddenly and without explanation she heard Zak’s voice in her head: “I chose you.”
The lights went out, Sally put her foot down.
The end?

How to Make It As a Fitness Design!
Individuals that stick to my things know I usually publish about diet, supplements, instruction, and other subject areas that are a lot more science based than subjective subject areas, these kinds of as what is coated in this report. I determined to shuck my science geek persona, and create on a matter I know will be valuable to countless numbers of would be and want to be health and fitness models. As effectively a known "challenging core" science dependent no BS writer, why I am creating what some will perceive as a "fluff" write-up? In excess of the several years I have gotten hundreds, maybe countless numbers, of gals that request me via email, letters, or in individual "how do I become a health and fitness model Will? You have been in the organization a long time, surly you of all folks ought to know." I get this from rookies and I get this from women that have been at it a although but have been unable to "break in" effectively. The fact is, I have been in the fit thai health, wellness, and bodybuilding biz a long time, and even though I am identified as a science and diet dependent "guru" variety, I have educated many a physical fitness athlete, and judged health and fitness and determine/bikini demonstrates for the NPC, Physical fitness The united states, Health and fitness United states, and other federations as well as presented advertising and marketing and company guidance to all kinds of athletes, which includes physical fitness versions. So, it is not as far fetched as it may look that I am heading to use this room to protect a non scientific subject matter, which is, how one goes about currently being a health design. This post will be valuable to the two seasoned and amateur types seeking to "split in" to the biz. If you are presently a skilled and successful health product, I am confident you could even now glean some useful info from this post. 1st the bad news, there is no one particular way to turn out to be a productive fitness design. There is no single route or magic mystery. There are even so some essential items a person can do to tremendously enhance their odds of "generating it" in the fitness biz as a product, and possibly utilizing that achievement as a launching pad to better items, these kinds of as motion pictures, Television set, and so on. Numerous of the best physical fitness versions (Trish Stratus and Vicki Pratt appear to mind but there are many other people) have absent onto professions in entertainment of all varieties. Bottom line, though there is no magic key to becoming productive as a health design, this write-up will be about as shut to a blueprint for accomplishment as you will uncover. "Do I need to have to contend?" This is a issue I get requested all the time and it truly is not an easy one particular to answer. In simple fact, the answer is (drum roll) yes and no. The person has to deicide why they are competing in the very first place to response that concern. For case in point, do you require to contend if your objective is to be a productive physical fitness design? The reply is no. Many of present-day effectively-recognized fitness types have in no way competed, or they competed in a number of tiny demonstrates and it was plainly not component of their good results as health and fitness designs. However, competing does have its prospective employs. One of them is exposure. At the upper stage shows, there will typically be editors, publishers, photographers, supplement organization owners, and other enterprise people. So, competing can enhance your publicity. Also, competing can make sense if you are trying to develop a company that is relevant to your competing or will advantage from you profitable a present. For case in point, say you have a private training fitness center you are making an attempt to create. Positive, possessing the title of say Ms Health and fitness The usa, or successful the NPC Nationals and getting an IFBB pro, will support your popularity and the notoriety of your company. There are a lot of situations were it would support to have received a show for a business or other endeavors. On the other hand, it have to be recognized that profitable a display does not in any way assure achievement in the company stop (and it actually is a organization) of being a health product. The mobile phone wont ring off the hook with massive provides for contracts. Also, it is very crucial to realize that it really is frequent that the 4th or sixth or eighth spot finisher in a fitness or determine demonstrate will get much more press than the winner. Why? Even though the winner might have what it took to acquire that present, it's frequently other gals the editor, publishers, dietary supplement firms etc, truly feel is a lot more marketable. I have noticed it numerous moments in which the winner was shocked to discover she didn't get practically the interest she expected and other women who put reduced have gotten interest in the form of photographs shoots, magazine coverage, and so on. Something to maintain in thoughts when you request yourself the important issue "do I require to contend and if so, why am I competing?" Solution that question, and you will know the answer to the heading of this part. Winning a title of some kind can be a stepping stone, but it is not in itself any promise of accomplishment in the physical fitness sector. It's like a school diploma it is what you do with it.
