Been sampling this Samdayeon infused with Jeju tangerine lately. It’s a fermented tea making it the same classification as a pu-erh but with none of the earthy flavor as it’s matured in cedar barrels. Curious to try a version of this without tangerine to see what the fermented+cedar notes are like without the citrus. (It’s also my first Jeju tea!! thx @kimchijoe 💕) Also featured in this photo: my mother’s exquisite 叉燒酥 and pottery pieces from two diff seasons of throwing. ☺️
In time, dress fear in memory, grief in the shutter, still your fingertips. // i blacked out my own old poetry and collaged txt and image around it. Teaching one last workshop at Cedarbrae this Saturday (workshop link in bio)! Come bind your stories together with me 😌
I’ve been a tired lil mushroom this month. grateful but sleepy. a dreaming funghi. ideas sporing. earthy blooms. #agaricusmetaphors 🍄
Your lungs fill themselves, / blood and bone empty themselves / you balloon huge with joy, / radiant dream waking / breathe / then rise. // a poem started by someone else & finished by me. an exercise in transformative encounter. ☺️ // done two sessions with @tplcedarbraeyouth through @paperhouseoutreach’s #XYZines and am overflowing with thoughts and feelings.
Been ruminating on the lay of the next year. What do I want? What can I achieve? What should I build? i have some ideas. 😌 soon. very soon.
from Drawings for “Radical Museology” by Dan Perjovschi 😌 enjoyed these so much. Catch full highlights from @artinstitutechi in my Stories 🚶🏻‍♀️
once in a while. 🖤
“The hue of a tropical languid night is called dream.” Missed a week of 單獨 Sunfish because the last week and this one are ridiculous. but here’s last week’s 😌

// love this quiet moment - “난 지금 행복해 그래서 불안해 폭풍 전 바다는 늘 고요하니까 불이 붙어 빨리 타면 안 되잖아 - 우리의 어린 밤을 지켜줬던 그 빛일 거야 또 보러 가자” - 따듯하게 해주는 예쁜 가사들. how to let you know the warmth of these words. when they only exist in these words. 한 언어의 낭만은 어떤 언어가 열심히 노력을 해도 절대 이해할 수 없다.
// traces, emblems, remnants. ... “그렇게 사라져 가는데 아무것도 할 수 없었네 i couldn’t do anything even if they were disappearing 잊을 수 없을 것만 같던 순간도 희미해져 갔어 even those moments i thought i will never forget are fading away 영원히 변하지 않는건 세상 어디에도 없었지 there was nothing in this world that never changed 하지만 잊을 수 없는게 어딘가 남아 있을거야 but somewhere what you can’t forget will remain” - 언니네 이발관 “산들산들” ... still sad they disbanded.
// (summer) days gone by. 신경쓰였던 많이 지쳤던 필요했던 하루. 웃음으로 보내 버리고, 기억으로 남겨 버린다. ... “큰 숨을 내쉬고 편해져 보려 해도 넌 여전히 좀 답답해 그래 보여” - 디어 클라우드 “wallflowers” [MY DEAR, MY LOVER] ... looking closely, this album holds so much. it hurts my heart.
// snippets. 어제를 살아봤다고 오늘도 아는게 아니니깐. - 1) scenes of korea: hanok village by an artist who told me comforting words when everyone questioned my choices; my dream place for a break by an artist who came here for the first time; familiar landscapes by me. - 2) two years of promise that finally came true. holding my biggest burden and my dearest love. - 3) learning the beauty of our hands with @ladyailyn, molding earth, building strength with air and water. recognizing imperfections and anticipations. and remembering to breathe. - 천천히. 숨 크게 쉬고. 차근차근.
// this summer. - • 생각이 많아지면 만들고 쓰고 그리는 것이 힘들어진다. 몇년동안 시간 낭비라는 드라마는 바쁜 머리의 휴식을 위한 필수품이 되었다. • 우리는 수 많은 감정을 꾹꾹 눌러 참고 산다. 누구나 가족에 대한 아픔이 있다. • 나를 위한 누군가의 귀 하나만 있어도 위로가 된다. 친구들한테 그 하나의 귀가 되자. • 답답한 마음은 솔직하지 못해서다. 제일 힘든건 나의 진심을 깨닫고 나한테 솔직해지는 거다. • 사람을 많이 만나고 한 번쯤은 울어야지 내가 필요한 사람이 누군지 알게된다. • 몸을 열심히 챙기면 평생갈것같은 두통도 사라진다. 이제 어리다는건 핑계 뿐이다. 진짜 좀 신경 써야지. - i need to practice writing more in english. or feeling more comfortable with the language, despite being more fluent in it. but also this won’t convey what i want if i wrote in english. - 1) watching my friend’s film during work break. 2) walking somewhere. 3) chilling at the park after eating so much. 4) driving somewhere. - 잠깐 쉬고 갈게요.
this summer. - “힘들다고 생각할 때, 한발자국 더 나가야 된다” 마치 지금 나한테 하는 말 같았다. - photo by jing.
// from summer twenty sixteen - “모두들 자신을 어떻게 돌보며 살아가고 있는 걸까.” from 이랑’s [대체 뭐하자는 인간인지 싶었다] - 힘들고 피곤하고 나도 모르게 눈물이 흐르고 짜증이나고 화날때 다들 어떻게 자신을 보살피나 - 나를 챙겨줬던 사람을 떠나보내면 나는 어떻게 하나
roaming around the city in the heat with no particular destination other than finding good lemonade. because jasmine spoiled us with good lemonade in singapore. - also on that day, i became a flower. 花, 鼻, 하나
first morning of a short escape from work was being on a work conference call at a pretty cafe with cold cucumber soup. - 어디로 여행을 가든 로컬 인디카페는 당연한 일정이다. 나의 미래의 카페를 상상하며, 나는 사람들이 편히 쉬고 일할 수 있는, 그림과 식물들로 꾸며진, 오이 들어간 음식은 1도 없는 카페를 꿈꾼다. - photo @ayebbey
