A Human Statue?

A human statue is a real person who puts makeup on and clothes to make themselves look like a statue.
They can make up to $100 every hour.
You really have to be careful to eat beforehand. All the blood rushes down to your feet and you feel dizzy, sometimes you even faint!
For painting your whole body can take up a good 90 minutes. You have to be quite fit to be a living statue.

Also, you have to be comfortable with your body, human statues can be a little too revealing. Some people pose nude, while others prefer to wear clothes.

Steps on how to be a human statue:
1. To be a living statue, you need to discipline yourself first, you have to discipline yourself in order to attract people.
2. Realize that it won't be any easier or more glamorous than whatever you may already be doing.
3. Make a costume and develop a character.
4. Choose an action. Like for example, a wave, blow a kiss, or wink.
5. Accessorize. 
6. Apply makeup.
7. Don't let anybody join you.

This is a "street job" but you can get gigs if you're good enough and people want to hire you for parties or something like that. 
You could make as much as $0-100 an hour depending on how good you are and where you perform. 
You don't really need an education. You more or less need a creative mind or an imagination and a lot of it. You also need to be very fit and toned.

I guess you could say it's not a very "fitting" profession.

Inspiration Assignment

In my eyes, the most inspirational person in the world is Kimani Ng'ang'a Maruge.

When Maruge was 84 he enrolled in a primary school in Kenya. He had a terrible life before and needed to learn how to read because he got a letter from the British Government.


Maruge was born in 1920. 
Plagued by memories of his time in Kenya in 1953, when he fought with the Mau Mau against the British he zoned out a lot in class. When he was told to sharpen his pencil, he had a vision from when he was younger. The time when he was captured and the people who kidnapped him, sharpened a pencil and shoved it in his ear.















There is a movie called "The First Grader" which is based on Kimani's life.

Maruge lived through a very tough life but got through it one step at a time.

My happiness comes from these wonderful people.

I don't know what I would do without you guys.. (:
