It's August already?
Letter 25
Henlo Friends,
How are ya, now?
Last week I went to see that Joy Koy Easter Sunday movie. I loved it: the right amount of Tagalog, the stereotypes, and the relatability between cultures. It made me miss our family parties. I guess you’ll have to see it for that part to make sense.
Anywho,
Here’s seven stuffs I thought I’d share with ya this week, Ferda.
The other day, I was at a show and I overheard some kid tell his friend, “This bar’s kind of weird. They’re playing classic rock.” You won’t be able to guess what fucking song was playing on the speakers. This is the song that was playing at that bar. Is this where we are in society now? I mean he was old enough to order a Bud Light, so he mustn’t be that young? I was so shook lol
One of my favorite local pop punk bands of all time recently announced they are playing a show in October after years of radio silence. It reminded me how long it’s been since I’ve felt like this about a local band. We used to go buck wild for Seasons Change at house shows. It’s kind of cringe to watch these now lol
A few days ago, our hot marine friend randomly texted me “Hey, what’s up”. I was so baked and I have no clue why but I thought it was meant for someone else, and I texted him back, “hi? did you mean to text me”. LMAO fuck, why am I like this?! He did confirm that text was meant for me and laughed. Fuckin’ embarrassing lol We then had a beer at my friend’s sushi bar a little while after. It’s so nice when someone can really accept those terribly awkward parts of me. I really fucking like him :3
Bea convinced me to watch Prey on Hulu last week. I don’t know anything about the Predator movies so I was a little hesitant, but she said I had to see Sanguinet in it. She gets me lol I was sold after that comment and boy did I LOVE it. It’s currently my favorite dog movie and I am really proud of Sanger for getting the role. I will absolutely watch this movie again and pretend that I am Naru and Kuma is Sarii.
I’m not sure if this is true because I couldn’t figure out where or when Denzel Washington said this (or if he even said this at all), but I stumbled on this quote on goodreads so .. it must be true? Either way, I likeded it.
”Some people will never like you because your spirit irritates their demons”I didn’t realize that people write whole ass articles on Twitter. Well not like whole ass articles, but they do an interesting structure like a tweet is a paragraph and a series of tweets is like a short essay. I’m not even quite sure how to explain it, but this is one that I truly enjoyed. It’s about day dreaming in an alternate timeline:
Here’s my favorite photo that I’ve taken recently. I just bought a new compact camera and I fell in love with it after I took this. I might just even get this printed as a poster when I find my forever home.
Next week, Bea and I are going to the House of Dragons exhibit at the National History Museum in LA. I’m still debating whether I should attempt to cosplay since they’re encouraging it. Either way, I can’t wait to see what catch phrases we adopt during this series spin off once it airs on SUNDAY.
Until then -
With love,
