A Lyrid meteor over the Presidential Range, NH
The Lyrids are almost here! It’s been a long 3 months since there has been a meteor shower to write home about. This weekend the condition will be perfect! As long as you have clear skies, viewing these meteors won’t be hard at all. The shower will peak Saturday night April 21st into the morning hours of April 22nd.

I’m getting there. slowly but surely
Family Research
So, I wanted to research my family’s ancestry. One problem is they are Japanese and my parents have no clue to their own family history. All I know is their maiden names and their names now. Hmm Going to be a challenge, but I’m willing to find out. Rumor is that my mom’s side was part Samurai… exciting. I’m determined to figure it out.
On the side note, I’m starting a painting soon with octopuses and Ursula. I’m really excited to start on this new project. more to come soon.
it’s APRIL!
I’ve made some bad decisions within the last few months. One being that I googled something andddd it turns out that google is very reliable on certain subjects. Especially creeping on someone! WHO KNEW! I honestly think Google can be considered the next new generation of Private Investigating [!] cause SHIT what I just found… is pretty funny…. I can’t say what it is because you will judge me very badly. So I’ll just leave it to your imagination! But next time, you should try googling a person’s name and see what comes up… You’d be surprised what is swirling in the cyber space…
So it’s been a while. I’ve decided to go to Japan with my sister this summer to get away and rethink what I want in life. Yes, no pressure. Just sit back and enjoy the jet lag. haha. But I’ve realized I need to figure something out. I’m not staying young and wrinkle free forever!
So, YOLO – you only live once. but I need to figure it out one day at a time.
Music
It’s basically summer time here in Virginia Beach. Mid to high 70′s… Makes me want beach and sun, while listening to some pepper. COME ON SUMMER! you’re just right around the corner!!
I need a Job
Ok, I need a career. I’ve been looking and sending in my resume left and right but no luck with the bites. I wish I had enough money to move to NY or any other city to pursue my career… Well at least til May I’ll be stuck here in Virginia, where there is NO art community. I take that back. There is an art community but it is more of a local art community pretty much beach scenes, and boring shit that tourists and old people like. Not hating just not my scene til maybe I’m 70?
Some one find me a job!
Sincerely,

losing it…
I know this is a public blog, but I can’t help but to write how I feel about certain things… Although I know that somethings should be kept private. this blog is more of typing out my thought process…
I’ve been thinking long and hard about what Judy told me – To find myself as a woman, as an artist. . . hhmmm tough . I don’t really know.
There are so many things I want to do, it’s hard to narrow it down to one certain thing. Seeing my parents not being able to fulfill what they probably wanted to do makes me feel so fortunate to be where I’m at, but at the same time I feel like a failure. All the lectures from my parents asking what I’m going to do or if I’m going to get a full time job is stressful. I haven’t figured out what I initially want to do, and that’s frustrating. I guess that’s what college was for, however we end up not figuring it out cause we’re so stressed about school work we don’t end up figuring it out. I’m not trying to make any type of excuse, it’s just monkey see monkey do.. so now I’m sitting here with 3 part times trying to figure out my life after graduating from a fine institution known as University of Mary Washington… damn. this sucks. What do I want? was one of the questions that came up: well, at the end I definitely want to be able to financially be independent and well off within the art industry. ok so what now… let’s narrow the art industry. HA. I like too much. But ultimately, I want to be in the managing field of contemporary art, whether its marketing, events or galleries. For now, at least that’s a good start… Now for about the woman part.. i think we may need to save that for another night…
good night everyone
