mike two former classmates from 12 we also brought along a cardboard cut out of simone i had laying around since she s at w k london now it s super gorgeous out there and it was only a scenic 40 minute drive from portland sam is leaving for tokyo on wednesday to see his family and then off to who knows where maybe nyc maybe not it seems like everyone in 12 is starting to float off on their various journeys and it s interesting to see all the different places this thing is bringing us and also realize how important these people are to me the friendships we built during the program are going to follow me for a while i know it it s not every day that you can find people that you respect can have meaningful relationships with and can work with professionally as well i wish more of us worked together now i feel like i m coming up to a point in my life now where i really need to take another look at what i value in life and go after those things there is so much crap in this world it s very easy to get caught up in the mess of it and confuse what other people think i should do for what i want to do i know that i m young and that i should make as many mistakes as i can now but i want to make sure that i am making those mistakes doing what i love and chasing what i am after posted by monica choy at 7 30 pm 3 comments labels adventure 7 08 2009 an update really rery i am a lucky girl truly after a few weeks of lingering at w k post graduation finishing up the w k make art show i scored a freelance gig doing interactive production there _ i guess that means i m a working girl now which is exciting and will help me to pay back my loans but i m going to be looking for something stable as well this time after 12 has been very confusing and a bit tumultuous but i m glad that i ve been able to reconnect with my friends and have been taking some time to take in the beautiful place that portland becomes in the summertime there has been some truly gorgeous weather and i spent the 4th under the morrison bridge not all day watching the fireworks and watching so much america s best dance crew it was spilling out my ears i hope you re all enjoying your summer it s so nice to not have to carry a jacket around and corn and watermelons and the 5 freckles i may or may not get here are some lovely things i ve come across lately that i wanted to share sour 日々の音色 hibi no
