About Me

I'm originally from Sacramento, California, moved to NYC when I was 18, and then to Mexico City when I turned 30. I am of Okinawan (Okinawa is an island between Taiwan and Japan) and white descent. Someday I hope to live in Okinawa and maybe Italy for a while. I like people that have integrity, are consistent, selfless, and have enough courage not to be suckered into magazine culture, elitism, looksism, etc.I am currently looking to form a new band in Mexico City, the influences will be Wilson Ferguson, Sophie, If, Chip Chip, Ross, etc.

Comme Des Garcons, be my boyfriend, a drunk post sorry for the offense, etc.

Should this asshole be my boyfriend? He keeps asking me to be, but he is not what I was expecting at all (he's a chemist / nerd with glasses, hates animals, doesn't know Hi-NRG). On the otherhand, I'm...

Mexico City

I've been back for a few days now and I have to admit I miss NY a little. It's all about the people there, I miss dancing with Egyptian drag queens (Sultana), Irish club kids (Kenny), and blue colla...

Beware of small assholes.

 In Japanese it's a slur to tell someone they have a "small asshole" (chisai no kitanaoi?) it means they are "cheap", "stingy", etc. Isn't that funny? I won't say here what I'm into sexually (you can ...
