JOURNAL

EVERY TIME WE MAKE A WORK OF ART WE PUT A DOCUMENT OF IT HERE IN THIS JOURNAL FOR A JAPANESE DOCUMENTARIAN FILM MAKER SO THEY CAN MAKE A DOCUMENTARY ABOUT THIS ARTIST IN THIS WEBSITE BECAUSE THEN WE CAN GO TO JAPAN, HOPEFULLY NOT SO LATE IN LIFE THAT IS A CRUEL IRONY. MOST PEOPLE BESIDES JAPANESE PEOPLE EVER GET TO GO TO JAPAN. WE UNDERSTAND, BUT WE GENUINELY WANT TO GO TO SEE THE COUNTRY AND OUR FRIEND NOBU.

OCTOBER 31, 2000 // HALLOWEEN

SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA

The after school program I worked for at a Chinese immersion school called Alice Fong Yu had a Halloween party. I dressed up like Amelia Earhart. My colleagues were smart, young and interesting. The children there were pleasant. This job was walking distance from my apartment in the Inner Sunset. I liked it. Before work on this day I donated blood and picked up tickets for a Pearl Jam concert I'd purchased on eBay in the lobby of corporate building in the financial district.
