WRITINGS
Grandma's Optimism
My dad hadn't been back to China for twenty years and the family's in China.
everyone was in the family room chatting, talking.The whole family. Smiles where all around.
"it's been twenty years." my father said.
"glad you're back!" everyone shouted.
I could see my grandma in excruciating pain. She had surgery on her left eye. My dad had to see her.
"how old are you now?" my dad joked.
"86" whispered my grandma.
"one of the song sisters lived to 105!" my aunt remarked.
"are you going to live to 105?" my dad asked optimistically.
"yes." she said.
everyone started to laugh, my uncle, my aunts, my cousins and my dad.
All happy to be together.
everyone looked to grandma and expected a smile.
grandma just clenched her eyes.
Bad Timing
The hot summer
left me
with no choice but to get a summer fling.
"I'm sticky" she said "... and i got another man."
Pitch that fling,
it turned to love.
It was a week for shade.
A week
of muggy choke-ridden moisture.
-say something.
what do you say when you have the jitters?
"I've never held you" was only a thought.
He got to her
before me.
here comes rain,
and
rain kept pouring.(she loved seeing rain.)
we dodged it over dinner.
I looked so good I could have killed.
She'd be impressed.
"But I'm not very vain." she said softly.
I had a loud sigh.
I watched her soft cheeks.
"Will I ever see you again?" She said softly.
"Where are you going?" she said softly.
"Don't reply." I reminded myself.
I couldn't stand the heat.
"i'm leaving now. it's nice and cool outside"
I stuttered
then stepped in a few puddles.

BEAUTY OF THE DAY
LOCAL UPDATE 5/23
fuuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhh... its been 11 days since an update. but here is the low down, i've been prepping for an interview with a school i applied for out in new york. it doesnt seem as easy as you think. scene analysis, essay, monologue, q&a's... so much. anyway i should be done with this soon. right now i'm capturing footage of skating and one of my short films. i might end up scanning some color film when i get tired of "studying". i'm also in the process of sorting out my second short film. fingers crossed it goes smoothly. as for writing, i need to hop back onto that.
see you soon.
see you soon.
