My Fantastic Neighborhood (Part 2)

I’m a big fan of Downtown. As my friend Hunter claims, “I don’t go above 14″ (oh, btw, it’s not about his age preference). One day, the same friend changed his position when he moved further down, the new catch phrase was “I don’t go above “Houston.” We jokingly said to him, “What!? Then, [...]

My Fantastic Neighborhood (Part 1)

I Love my neighborhood! Especially ‘my love’ downtown is hip and cool, always fun to walk around, filled with lots of vibrant energy. I sometimes bump into famous people. I sometimes spot beautiful spots. It’s my little sanctuary, guaranteeing my freedom, anonymity, and occasionally my vision to the clear sky… I’ll keep posting more [...]

“Boardwalk” & the sea and the birds!

Sometimes, I need to get out of the city for some fresh air. So I made a little excursion to find some cold fresh air to fill my lung and to find inspirations for my projects. Beach sand and snow and me standing tall on the shore.
It was a divine day.

Last Day of the Governor’s Island

Sunday, the 11th, was the last day to visit the Governor’s Island this year and ironically my first day to visit this secluded sanctuary. It was the perfect day to take the ferry to the island because of the warm weather and rather hasty breeze. Walking along a path going through the island [...]

The movie, “Slumdog Millionaire,” is a really cool and interesting movie that you [...]

NYC Waterfalls – Private Boat Tour

The night was perfect and beautiful. A little chilly, though.
Around 8pm, I got on a nice three story boat on Pier 16 on the South Seaport Street to enjoy this beautiful art installation. The opportunity came through as an invitation from the Producers Guild of America for a new art installation project tour [...]

“The Dark Knight” IMAX Screening in NY – July15, 2008 (Spoiler)

What makes a hero different from us? A hero can stay as a hero forever, or would inevitably turn into a villain before too long? Are humans selfish and evil in nature or good-hearted naturally? What makes them cooperate if they are evil? Or do humans have both faces?
“The Dark Knight” revolves around a dark [...]
