this american city has been everything i expected it to be. tho i cannot think about anything that has happend while i have been here. i have been combing the streets of brooklyn, drinking, and being very high in manhattan. i smoke cigarettes wherever i go and snap picktures with my plastic camera or my polaroid, leaving many foreign tongues pointing at me like a typical asian tourist.
but that's not all there is. just what i can think of. tonight is my last night and i leave the country tomorrow. i think i've waited 20 years to say that. i cannot bear to stay longer than i am due but i wish i could bear to miss people and things.
claire was right; it is all about missing people wherever you go.
