Remember me

"It is no accident that you are reading this. I am making black marks on white paper. These marks are my thoughts, and although I do not know who you are reading this now, in some way the lines of our lives have intersected... For the length of these few sentences, we meet here.

It is no accident that you are reading this. This moment has been waiting for you, I have been waiting for you. Remember me. "

-Duane Michals-

Socially Different?

When you walk by and bump into someone do you just walk by or do you say excuse me?
When you're hit by someone in Seoul, don't expect an apology.

This happens a lot in the subway especially in the morning when everyone's getting to work.
Sometimes they'll stump on your foot, american-football-tackle you, and literally kill you.
You must then do the same to them. Do not expect an apology, nor offer one.

When I see people bumping into me which clearly is a situation they should be sorry about
I scream "What the fuck is wrong with you??? Say you're fucking sorry you
asshole!"

Well, I'd at least like to do that. But all those words are just inside my head and at the tip of my lips.

To be back home, to feel lost at the same time

So it's been around a year or two since I've moved back to Seoul, Korea.

Do you know what it feels like to be back home, but to feel lost at the same time?
