Ciao
All things come to a burn. All things fun have a turn. As your fortune paper fades, it floats away. Right CiaoCiao?
Goodbye Jersey City, again. My fickle eyes can’t appreciate a familiar scene, my stubborn ears are too accustomed to the sounds… I’ll return with a stereoscope of memories, and a phonograph of new recordings [...]
History history history history history
When I was a very little girl, I grew up playing hopscotch and jump rope on the streets and the sidewalks. Jersey City was a concrete wonderland, gritty, and breezy. Things got more and more dangerous, and Jersey City became this danger zone, a mouse trap waiting to snap.
The present. While JC [...]
Anniversary Road Trip to Savannah
We spent our first anniversary in Savannah. The soulful, sleepy city seduced us the last time we were there. This time, we explored more of Savannah and its 24 green squares of history.
Magically, the sporadic rain seemed to fall everywhere (when it did), except on us. All we felt was the moist breath of the [...]
Wild Wild West, NJ
This weekend we stepped into the West Jersey for Citziens Band Radio, and we were transported. Was this NJ?? While the band rocked country tunes, folks danced, enjoyed local beer, german beer, and select styles of BBQ. In attendance at this hoedown: a man in lederhosen, men with thumb lever-lidded beersteins, and of course, cowboys [...]
Silver Bloom
They say every cloud has a silver lining. Silver might be fine for some, but what if it were all silver? The lackluster days would move in a heavy blur. When I grow bored, everything’s tarnished. Complacency smears clarity. Screw that! Looking closer, I know what I appreciate: the scrupulous [...]
Eine Nacht der VerWUNDERung!
The birth of my little brother meant the end of my near 4 year reign over my parents, the end of the age of only childedness. Still, we wouldn’t have had such a curious photoshoot at WunderBar on April 17th, his birthday, a late night stinking of bier. A night of music, amplitude, and [...]
Any Day Parade
A little bit country, a little bit rock and roll! My fav musical combo! I watched Any Day Parade on Friday 4/9 at IM Automata Chino and got to test out my brand new Nikon D90.
I think my pictures came out a bit dark, but I am still falling in love with the D90 everyday. [...]
Headbanger (Oeuf, I did it again)
This Easter week was all about rebirth for me. I took a cue from the egg. I re-bobbed my hair, and cut off unwanted frangibles which resulted in a newly fringe-framed me. Voila! (This is a lot how I looked at three years old. Of course now I’m allowed to [...]
Roadtrip Pictures
It’s been a month, since Sue’s wedding, since our roadtrip, since the warm weather breeze hit our car. A month since Pedro welcomed us with the bright lights of South of the Border. And somewhere, beneath that pale fluorescent light, he is still waiting. He’s ever vigilant, ever smiling, ever bright. We visited our family, [...]
Savannah, Georgia – rama
Here are some overdue pictures of Savannah. Savannah is really beautiful. Honestly, it’s the most beautiful city I’ve seen in all our road tripping. There are gardens among gardens among gardens, fountains, and trees that make a canopy over the streets and sidewalks. There’s such a rich history here, they even have [...]
