I am a young somali entreprenuer who would love to get help from somali women whom enjoy fashion and have the convidence to perform at a fashion show. To continue with my project, I need atleast thirty somali ladies at a age of between Nineteen and Twenty-six to compete in a contest which includes beauty and fashion. I tried my best to find all the people I need in person, but so far I have Thirteen Somalian sisters who are willing to participate. Also, there will be prices for top three and performances by variety of your favorite somali singers and DJs during the whole show. The date for this event will be posted when there are enough competetors.

PS: this is not to desrespect anybody, so please do not in anyhow take it the wrong way. Besides let me know of what you think about having a Somali Fashion show for the very first time in America.

*this is open for all the honeys in North America and Europe.

**If you need any more information or if you want to be part of this email me at Kaskoos@aol.com

Hmm this is Ayaanick from MN(wondering where your show is going to be at, and if I could get a free ticket since I am the first lady to actually have an interest in this topic) Please say it will before school stars cause you know that School is like a baby if your not there it cries for you, or more like you cry for it. My point is I won't participate, but I will be more then happy to see if I can help you put it together, as far as Media goes, and all that stuff,,so let me know!! And hopefully you have good fellaz..and I know some that will be more then interested to participate in the show, or more like I will make them! I am not a fashoin material, but like I said will help you if need anything..just for the fun of it!! cause I like a challenge, and I am good at photography, vedios,,,or just plain concepts!! That is about it,,,and maybe we will show them the show they never thought could take place..you know what they say..great mindes think A like(just kidding)!!! Good luck,,and you can visit my little web page..and see what you think of it actually!!

ayaannick woooow!

i really appreciate the fact that you want to be there for me. i dont know about anybody else, but defenately you will get a free ticket. besides dont kid 'couse great minds do think alike, and as far as help is concerned it would mean alot to me if you get your friends involved in my show and post this on your website(i will write you more information about that). i promise to make them stars (j/k)....actually that depends on their effort. i will visit your website and most of all, this will be in MINEAPOLIS eventhough i dont live there. also, the date of the event; it will be known as soon as i get enough people or should i say ladies. i am sure u will see the posters and fliers since you're from minnesota.

PS: i like the way you write..i hope you can be as creative when you speak...i might take you as a hostess..if u want to be...

*i had to get this of my chest: i wish there were more sistas involved in making a difference like you...and that is speaking from what i have read and seen so far from you.

Much Luv

kaskoos,

you must either be a very naive character or a baffoon, neither is a consolation. Our girls are
not a business venture-they are not there for your convenience, to replenish your piggy bank
and to act out your infantile fantasies.

you probably arrived from dusa mareb via addis
a couple of years ago, your sorroundings might have changed but you are without a doubt
overwhelmed...........boy , wake up and smell the coffee.

And to the misguided female creature-please
strut your stuff elsewhere, where it might be appreciated more-a BROTHEL.

need I say more?

what?!? you call your self a gentleman, yet you act like and most definately soundlike a boy. what makes you so angry about something you dont know that somebody you dont know is doing. and dusa mareb i dont know where you are going with it. beside all these nobody is selling any thing to anybody and there is no money being made. most of everything is going at be at my own expense, this is all about having fun and giving a chance to those who want to express themselves.........specially those ladies who luv fashion.

need i say more? oh yeah say that you, gentleman, is very closeminded....besides be proud what tha brotha is doing cuz u never thought of it.......and from the way you are speaking i dont think you eva will.

PS: thanx for tha comment but please pleazzzzzz
dont be ignorant and facile as well as
effortless to sumthing good u can have
something to do with

Much Luv

GENTLEMAN'S COMMENT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH BEING CLOSE MINDED. ISLAM FORBIDS WOMEN TO FLAUNT THEIR PHYSICAL BEAUTY. WHAT DO YOU THINK IS THE PURPOSE OF WEARING A HIJAB? IT SEEMS TO ME THAT YOU ARE LITTLE BIT OUT OF TOUCH WITH YOUR RELIGION. NEXT TIME YOU COME UP WITH A SO CALLED GREAT IDEA, MAKE SURE THAT IS ISLAMICALLY PERMISSABLE. IT WILL SAVE YOU FROM THE TROUBLE OF LOOKING LIKE A FOOL.(TO THINK THAT SOMEONE IS IGNORANT ENOUGH TO COME UP WITH THIS IDEA
DURING RAMADAN, AMAZES ME). AND IF YOU DON'T CARE ABOUT WHAT ISLAM HAS TO SAY, ALLAH HAVE MERCY ON YOU.

P.S A WOMAN'S TRUE BEAUTY COMES FROM WITHIN.
IT IS ALL ABOUT HOW SHE CARRY HERSELF, HER INTELLECT, AND HOW SHE TREATS THOSE AROUND HER.

THE WHOLE CONCEPT OF MODELLING IS HARAM. IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT SORT OF CLOTHES ONE IS MODELLING. WOMEN ARE SUPPOSE TO BE MODEST. THEY ARE SUPPOSE TO COVER THEIR PHYSICAL BEAUTY. HOW IS ONE SUPPOSE TO MODEL WITHOUT BRINGING ATTENTION TO ONE'S PHYSICAL BEAUTY? THE ONLY THING THAT YOU MIGHT GAIN FROM THIS DAMBI. IT IS NOT WORTH IT.IF YOU THINK THAT I AM EXAGGERATING GO AHEAD AND ASK YOUR LOCAL IMAM OR ANOTHER PERSON WHO HAS ENOUGH ISLAMIC KNOWLEDGE AND ASK THEM ABOUT WOMEN MODELLING. SEE WHAT THEY HAVE TO SAY.

Hmm: Do I sound like the way I write,,I let you be judge sir. Like I said I don't want to be a part of your fashoin show, however wouldn't mind being host why not? I think It will be a great thing to do, but I like I said walaal, time is very prous to me so the sooner you can let me know a date the sooner i can plan. I don't know any girl who would get involved, but I do know of some guys...but then again I guess they are out of luck cause you already said that you had enough guys right??

let me stop right there...so let me know soon! It has to before Jan 16th cause I go back to school then aight!!

bye!

To all my people
I would suggest one opinoion to my brothers any sister
the sister ask us postive advise not negitive one
if you all all give your atations you don't have to feel sorry. sister get some something so you don't have to agaist to her let her be free gets her own, I know alot of girls who is interesting dying beiying fashions, so give the sister break
if you believe Harram and halal, the is a business boy, if you don't a participate the show so get the •••• out

take cares my people:
love from one
