Paterson
Friday, February 17, 2017
[gallery size=full ids=‘1621’ columns=1] Last month, I went to see Jim Jarmusch’s latest film, Paterson. Here’s what I wrote at the time: Paterson drives a bus, in Paterson, New Jersey. He writes poetry and lives a simple life, Seeing the world go by around him. However, a more recent article completely changed my perspective on the movie: “Paterson offers a subtle, artful take on the aftereffects of war on American veterans”New Favourite song

Tuesday, February 14, 2017
Today was a beautiful day in London. As I’ve alluded to earlier in the day, the weather was very sunny, with a great blue sky — the first actual sights of the sky that I’ve seen since the beginning of the trip here, actually.
Tired;Alive
Monday, February 13, 2017
I have this tired look on my face, dark circles turning into black holes. Yet I’m walking fast, caffeinated, and above all energized by the energy of a city. Today has been a great day, but more on that in the next 12 hours.London & "Process"

…and by that, I mean I can actually see the sky for the first time since I’ve arrived on Wednesday.London Day Four & Five: Friendly Brunches

Over the weekend, I took some much deserved time to catch up with my friends living in England.

Somewhere in those 1,200 or so pages was the most effective answer I’ve found so far to BUT HOW: instead of subtracting bad things, add good things. Or: When bad things cannot be subtracted, protect the good things and turn to them as things to do thinking about and focusing on when you need a break from the bad things. Stoya’s back to blogging, which is GREAT NEWS. In this series of articles, she talks about how online comments can affect you, no matter what you say, feel, or how strong you can be.London Day Three: Visiting Shoreditch
Friday, February 10, 2017
Once I got up, the morning shower helped me kickstart the day: it began with a solid two hours-worth of focused work across my various client projects. I left the hotel just before noon, to go out for my daily adventure: in that case, exploring the infamous Shoreditch district! Imagine that: after having lived in the U.K. for 5 years and having taken just as many trips to London, I was yet to explore this hip neighborhood.[Tibz Mix] Love & Beats | Volume 04: 10 Days / 10 Nights

Day Two in London: Birthday Edition
Friday, February 10, 2017
Feeling incredibly grateful to have spent the day with my friend Frit for my birthday! We really took our time in a freezing 2 degrees Celsius, to explore London’s South Bank! Sadly I ended the night alone in my hotel, first at he restaurant, then working on my laptop at the bar, and finally back at the hotel room. But the outpouring of birthday messages and Charity Water donations throughout the day made it worth it!NYTimes: "Hey, Steve Harvey, Who Says I Might Not Steal Your Girl?"
Wednesday, February 8, 2017
That’s why this Steve Harvey episode is so upsetting. He speaks openly about issues facing the black community, he is a man of God, and he has a huge platform to speak from. Unfortunately, he’s also the type of guy who orders Krug champagne for himself and Cook’s for every one else. For his own personal profit, he’s willing to perpetuate the emasculation of Asian men regardless of how hypocritical it is.London Day One: Back in London

Oh how I’ve missed the U.K.: much more than I thought. Staying in Kensington tonight. Went to the popular and highly recommended Khan’s Restaurant, and ate a delicious Vegetarian Thalis before heading to the movies.Vlog 025: YOU KNEW THIS WAS COMING

"It’s a problem that too many Silicon Valley CEOs “are from South Asia or from Asia”." It shouldn’t surprise anyone that the quote above comes from Pupeteer in Chief Stephen “Palpatine” Bannon. In 2017, that mindset has to go. No more tolerance for bigotry. [≠]Music Monday - February 6th, 2017

Thursday, February 2, 2017
Moonlight isn't a story as much as it is a journey. The journey of a young boy, growing into a teenager and later into a man. The movie explores a topic not often depicted in films: black sensibility and sexuality – and even further: the day to day life of a man who finds himself attracted to other men. Through this prism, we see Chiron, the main protagonist, go through different stages and overcoming obstacles that life gets in the way."How Atlanta Became the New Cultural Capital of America"
