Where the weekend ends

1. Sunny weather. It’s the first weekend that feels that summer has truly arrived. 2. Erin, Corrine and Kaely for organizing an important documentary for an audience. 3. Seeing all my friends together in one place, when it feels as though I haven’t seen them in ages.

A taste of Seoul

1. Grass. The grass in front of Seoul’s city hall may or may not be the only “lawn” I’ve seen in Korea. They should consider more of that. Picnics are nice. 2. The International Food Fair. For letting us eat in Afghanistan, Sudan and Bangladesh all in the same day.  And Chilean wine and German … More A taste of Seoul

MyungDong, my heart

1. Forever21 in Seoul, for having numbered sizes (for real size people) and not “free size” for the Korean ideal sized people. 2. Glasses/contact lens shops on every corner in Korea, for when you get a tear in the middle of your contact, but you didn’t bring any extras for the weekend and you must … More MyungDong, my heart

KTXing

1. A three day weekend. 2. The mighty KTX and all it’s speed. 3. The Korean boys who sat across from me and took me completely by surprise with their fluent English; one had lived in Tonga, the other in the States.

A casual arcade appearance

1. Letter from my bestie. The kindest letter I’ve ever received. 2. Meeting with the Vagina Videographers. I now have all files in one place. Let the compressions begin. 3. Arcades and teenage boys. For reminding me why I enjoy taking pictures in the first place.

Glowing

1.  Late night chats with friends on rainy days. 2. Short days at work. Because some days are just too much to take. 3. Bathing in the after-glow of the Vaginas. Getting praise and compliments from strangers.

Garbanzo

Today I’m ever so grateful for: 1. Hummus and Macaroni and cheese (with the instructions in English and everything, whether I need them or not). 2. The person who gave them both to me. 3. The love and support of my amazing friends who not only came to the Vagina Monologues, but came with flowers. I love … More Garbanzo

Sunday nerves

The last two performances of the Vagina Monologues today. What we’ve been working for over the past two months. Climaxes here. Today. Nerves build, reaching towards the final show. Each audience with its own personality. Today I’m truly and deeply grateful for: 1. Everyone who came and supported us women, from all three performances. For … More Sunday nerves

Opening night

First Vagina Monologue performance today. Anticipation in the air. Nerves getting the best of me. Excitement building. So much to be grateful for today. Far more than three things. All secret things.

Vaginas with voices

1. Sunny rooftop lunch break 2. Amazing women with amazing voices singing their hearts out for other amazing women’s vaginas in honor of the Vagina Monologues. 3. Monthly birthday change-up. Earlier lunch = longer break = more time in the sun.
