San Francisco is still the most beautiful place in the world to me. It’s no longer as sleepy as it used to be, it’s certainly not as clean (was it ever?), and surely not as safe as it once was, and yet it remains special. Well, the heart wants what it wants, or else itContinue reading “City Snaps: The beaut within”

City Snaps: Never-ending Summer 2022
More highlights from the longest solo Europe trip ever. Also, I’ve graduated! (saying this 10 months too late, but it felt appropriate since this trip was for my grad ceremony.) Obviously, there is no distinct difference to an additional degree, though one might refute that statement if it was a PhD and I wanted toContinue reading “City Snaps: Never-ending Summer 2022”
City Snaps: Versailles Summer 2022
This was something I had wanted to do for a tremendously long time – ever since I had learned about French history in my beginner art classes in high school, then once again in university. The rococo period has always been one of the more fascinating (and dramatic) periods of time in French history, withContinue reading “City Snaps: Versailles Summer 2022”
City Snaps: Paris Summer 2022
I’m finally looking back on the many highlights from Paris 2022, where I spent an unhealthy amount of time museum hopping and hitting all the major highlights ranging from modern art, contemporary art, and even a selection of classic impressionist works. My mind was enriched, to say the least. I am most definitely looking fowardContinue reading “City Snaps: Paris Summer 2022”
City Snaps: Amsterdam Summer 2022
Once again, it’s long overdue, but I’m finally looking through photos from my Europe trip last year. It was possibly my longest solo trip to date (at a solid 7 weeks) and as expected, it was tremendous fun and full of eye-opening experiences. I haven’t written anything publicly for a long time now, and itContinue reading “City Snaps: Amsterdam Summer 2022”
City Snaps: Californian Moments Winter 2021
Where I spent my late teenage years to my early adulthood. No words, just feelings for this one.
City Snaps: Getty Museum 2021
Lately I’ve been longing to go back to my second home. It hasn’t been long, and things haven’t been particularly safe in California, but I do miss the predictability of it all. Looking through these old photos of the Getty Center reminded me of a pleasant day we had wandering through the museum and theContinue reading “City Snaps: Getty Museum 2021”
City Snaps: Winter Blues 2021
Only nine months too late, but looking at these photos have got me longing for that crisp clear blue sky while Reminds of You plays in the background. I absolutely love how there is always something to look forward to in life!
Well, well, well, look who’s alive…
On hindsight, 2021 was an absolutely terrible year. It was abysmal (not being dramatic here) now that I actually have the capacity to say “on hindsight”. In the years to come, I hope to recall 2021 with mere disdain on my face, yet knowing it has shaped my character for the better. 2022 was (is)Continue reading “Well, well, well, look who’s alive…”
Dramatically: Send help
There are too many pictures and so many things to do and not enough time I am just caught in the minutiae of the everyday and so many things are due. Sdnxaskdbasjnaksdnkasmdnka Lately I’ve been thinking about what Charles Darwin wrote to Charles Lyell, “But I am very poorly today and very stupid and hateContinue reading “Dramatically: Send help”
