HD: Hi, please introduce yourself to the readers of hafadaze.com.
SHARI: Hafa adai, my name is Shari Dominique, from NCS Dededo! 🙂
HD: Awesome, thanks for taking the time to speak with us.
SHARI: No problem, I’m currently unemployed so I have all the time in the world. It’s cool though. I applied at a bunch of places but they never calls hiring out there, give me a call!
HD: Can you bushcut? My Shindaiwa needs some love.
SHARI: ehhh…
HD: Joke lang, are you single? Cuz I’m ready to mingle and jingle bell rock!
SHARI: I’m not married but totally NOT single. I’m doing this thing called long distance relationship and and it’s hard but for this one special guy I’m determined and I’m doing it!
HD: I have this thing called “long” distance, but it doesn’t deal with relationships….You down?
SHARI: No! Like I said, I’m kinda taken. Sorry! 🙂
HD: Oh well, for those who still want to try, how can a guy get around to taking you on a date?
SHARI: Not interested. I like to have fun with my friends and most of them are guys but as far as datings concerned, no one’s taking me on a date…
HD: Not even for taho and gulaman at the Flea Market?
SHARI: Ai adai, no!
HD: So you’ve been doing some modeling lately… Tell us about that.
SHARI: I always loved being in front of a camera since I was a little girl. Modeling was always my dream job. I would always tell my mom and family “someday, I’m gonna model” and they would always say “sure Shari”. But now here I am, having my dream job come true right before my eyes. The first photographer I ever modeled for was Diana Hay and this was last year. Then I left to New York for a year, came back and a long time friend of mine, Joel Goliat (yoshi) asked me to model for him a long with my friend Rochelle who is also a model who just came back from the Phillippines. So we both did the photoshoot, posted up pictures on Facebook, and attracted photographers. Turns out one of those photographers was Irwin Tumbucon… So I started shooting with him and after that, my modeling dream started coming true even more. I thank him and all the other photographers who have shot me. Because without them, I wouldn’t be where I am right now.
HD: zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz……
SHARI: Hey!
HD: Oh sorry, I was just resting my eyes. I was playing Marvel vs. Capcom last night, tiring hobby of mine. Speaking of which, what are yours?
SHARI: I like to cook, work out, spend time with my mom, go out with friends too of course, talk to my long distance boyfriend.
HD: Nice. I do the same too… except the boyfriend part. Working out turns me on! What’s a turn on for you?
SHARI: That’s for my boyfriend to know and you to keep wondering.
HD: Okay, can I wonder for a bit?
SHARI: Do it later!
HD: Fine! Got any things that really irritate you?
SHARI: Bad odor. I can’t stand it! Not because it smells bad but just because it irritates me for some reason.
HD: Burppp. Sorry, had some good bbq from Barbecue Bad Boys on Route 16. You ever check that out? It’s right next to Cabalen.
SHARI: Ya, their bbq sticks are mouth watering!
HD: Heck ya……..the owner too.
SHARI: If you say so…
HD: We’re getting kinda off topic here, kinda awkward huh? Mind sharing your most awkward moment with us?
SHARI: Everyday and is a weird and awkward day for me lol! and keeps me laughing.
HD: That’s sweet. Laughter keeps people young…. and you do look pretty young…
SHARI: Hey!

HD: What do you drive?
SHARI: Don’t have a car at the moment…
HD: Hafa?! So does that mean you car pool when you go out on the weekends?
SHARI: I don’t go out much, usually just stay home. But if it’s one of those rare occasions, you might find me…somewhere. It’s Guam!
HD: Well, maybe we can take you out sometime for some food… What’s your favorite place to grab chow?
