After a 21-year long distance relationship with my homecity, I am finally back. I’ve never lived in Beijing apart from brief family visits during summers, and I’m tired of sobbing like a creep in the back of the cab on the way to the airport with the driver worryingly checking the rear-view mirror, probably leaving Wechat messages to his bro about the emotional Asian chick in the back. In a nutshell: THIS WEIRDO IS HOME TO STAY.

I’m currently back in Vienna for one more day. Then off to New York for a good two months. This post introduces my first collaboration with GIF-master Hong Meow. She also runs a dope online store called Inu Inu that Tumblr princesses would divorce their Prince Charmings for.

Winter sees me retreat into a happy cave of all-black outfits. Because 1) no sun is there to inspire me to wear any colors, and 2) I have this artsy fartsy idea that all black makes me look like an extra edgy Asian. IRL, I probably look like an emo metallic-music lover.

On another note, I’ve finished all project work for uni for this semester. So I’ll be working closely with the KNEON team on the next issue, and also…going to Iceland tomorrow!
