KAFFNY: Come Hang!




As Jane and my joint project, The MerĂ©, suggests, we are both Korean-Americans. While both of us have spent most of our lives in the States, we have both always been greatly interested and influenced by our Korean heritage - in terms of culture, tradition, music, and especially food ;) - and believe that it is important for us to be connected to our roots. So when I discovered KAFFNY - Korean American Film Festival - through a friend who is the part of the team this year, we both signed up immediately to work as volunteers. 

The line-up features over 20 short films and 9 features, of which 6 are premiering at this event. 


Tickets could be purchased at eventbrite where they are being sold for 12$, but 10$ for students and seniors. The prices are a little cheaper your typical NYC movie ticket prices; but instead of just one, you can movie-hop all the cool films available and even come to the afterparties! I'm super excited to be a part of this event as a volunteer on Saturday (June 9th) and hope to see you all there!

Dilemma


The temperature has been creeping up, and I've woken up the past two mornings ..sweaty. It's safe to say that summer is here! As some of as you may know, I chopped off something like 10-plus inches in January. When I first cut my hair it was so short that I couldn't manage to get it in a ponytail, even, but now it's grown out quite a bit - it's pictured below, me sweating in my room.

Awkward? 
In addition to it approaching an awkward length - not short but not long either, and look how my "uneven bob" has grown out into just an uneven... I don't even know - I've been inspired to change up my hair. Curly hair? Blonde? Ombre? Shave a part of it off? These beautiful women and their hair are the reasons why I've been itching to do something:
Top to Bottom, Left to Right: Emily Weiss of ITG and her subtle shaved bottom, Vanessa Hong's colorful hair, Raych and her beachy curls, and the cutest girl with the cutest hair/lip color interviewed on ITG a few months back (her picture was one of the pictures that inspired me to cut my hair as well!) 
Definitely will keep you all updated on which (or a combination of?!) style I end up changing my hair to. Hope you all are staying cool!
