Cold-hearted
NYC,
You have taught me
that there are things
other than revenge
that can be best served
cold.
… So please do not
swallow your pride
for if you do,
I am certain
you will choke
and die.
- R.S.

Assateague Island
I wonder how there are no bugs when me and Christina are only four steps away from the sea, poking two bags of boiling Shin Ramen with wooden chopsticks and disposable forks. It is 3 A.M., but the land is so flat, I think I can see the sun peeking behind the surface, waiting for the two of us to fall asleep so that she can begin her act. The greatest play ever. Every day is her leading roll, but the night is her curtain, an interlude for the stars,
Look at me,
I am the brightest.
No, me.
No- we are most beautiful when we shine together.
I close my eyes and let them sing me to sleep.
When I open my eyes the car is filled with orange and red and yellow. I think I am inside a grapefruit. I close them again, but I can still see the orange. Then black, black and orange again. I open my eyes and see a boat passing by. The two fishermen load crab traps onto the dock while we eat breakfast. Avocados, tomatoes, mangoes, blueberry yogurt with honey. We spit salted pistachio shells into a white styrofoam cup. An early bird circles around us and I ‘accidentally’ drop a fruit, but Christina thinks it’s still ok to eat since it landed on the skin. Well, I think, the bird may catch a fish, there are plenty of fish in the sea, but maybe there aren’t because the crab traps are empty so we talk about plastic, Starbucks and straws, how important cleanliness is, and how it’s next to godliness. That it’s a blessing to even have fruit to drop for the birds underneath the beaming sun.

I’d rather be in bed

Sylvia 언니 opened her boutique after-hours for a small get together last month so I took photos of her and Rachel 언니 who can be seen enjoying a large green grape. Nobody remembered to bring a corkscrew for the wine so we ceded to nails and electric screwdrivers.

Thank you! With my diary images, I erase the dust and scratches. Fix contrast, saturation, brightness and crop. I’m a really fastidious editor so I put a lot of time and effort into retouching. Even then it may never be good enough.
Putting the work out there is the hardest for me, but I love that I can create things and I love the process of integrating creativity with learning more about who I am. Personally that’s all I’m in it for so I thank anyone who appreciates it!
Also I have a hard time using manual focus (I never use auto) since I am legally blind so you will see some of my images are unfocused.
