Happy August, friends! Welcome to this new platform for my blog-like newsletters and thanks for keeping in touch. How's your summer going?
I'm enjoying the heat and humidity as best as I can. I'm super grateful for what I'm doing. I'm in a play, traveling to Ohio to shoot a commercial, and start my last semester of nursing school in a few weeks. I'm also headed to the DNC in Chicago, which is gonna be nuts fun.
Earlier this Summer, Ratso, Jake, Greg, and I interviewed awesome bands at Pitchfork, and I inherited an inflatable kayak. I've been exploring the cool-but-still-nasty Chicago River. Next up is kayaking on Lake Michigan at our taiji school picnic. Meet us there?
Have a wonderful month and lemme know what you're up to. ☮
Halloween Reinvented: Immersive AAPI Spooky Stories and Frightening Folktales
Our AAPI arts group APIDA Arts produces a cool, immersive multidisciplinary art event on Oct 20, 2024 at the Chinese American Museum of Chicago. If you identify as AAPI, send us your performance and creative ideas by August 15th to be a part of this weird, wonderful event.
Woo, we are having the time of our lives in the play Hedwig and the Angry Inch. We close August 11 and tickets are almost sold out! Email me for a discount code. I love drumming, singing, and acting in this wonderful show.
Taiji in Chicago is our school teaching taiji (tai chi) for internal refinement. It's a rewarding, challenging practice that has changed me for the best. Give it a try?
