This morning when I signed onto AIM, I received offline messages from my best friend! She's traveling in China right now and I miss her quite a lot.
Before she left I had asked her to buy me a giraffe stuffed animal... lol.
Li Ling (2:49:38 AM):[Offline IM sent 6h and 36m ago] so many golden retreivers here. afraid to pet. scared of diseases. pet a family friend one. so. cute. miss u lots. there are no giraffes in china.
:( aww, there are no giraffes in China.. lol.
So post-grad is kind of funny. I finally know what it feels like to be at home while all your friends traipse away. It gets lonely once in a while, but I'm hanging in there :P

[I asked this lady if I could take a picture of her in her flower shop which was right outside the entrance of the 7 train, she said, "yes." Then she asked to see her picture and she said, "do not use me in your project! Just the flowers okay?" haha]
[The little boy in green was really cute. When I asked for their photo he ran to his older brother's side. The older one said sure but they were not sure what to do so I said just act natural. :)]
[Helen trying to make Dodo give her a high-five]
[Prabighya, unhappy because I'm taking her picture, nonetheless beautiful]
[Stanley, you made most of my portraits possible, thanks for bringing me to the graffiti site!]
[Dave, contemplating his next move outside a chess cafe that was inside a Brooklyn train station]
