Funny times

Rumaging through my email and found a series of photo shoots of when I helped a friend out with some press photos.  He wanted a 'lifestyle and modern' shot of the new hotel we were in.  And this is a photo of me being 'lifestyle-ish and modern'?  It was a good photo session with lots of creative input and experimenting with light.  Very enjoyable and relaxed compared to half of the other ones I have had in Hong Kong.

检查我的电邮,我找到一系列我之前帮朋友出版照片的拍摄。他想在这家新旅馆里拍一张“生活化和现代化”的照片。而这张照片是有点“生活化和现代化”的我?拍摄的过程很好,有很多创新的意念和不同灯光的试验。跟在香港的很多次拍摄比较,这是非常让人享受和松弛的。


Best thing probably was my 'make-up and hair'.  He had nothing to do with the photos and was standing in.  All of a sudden, "Valerie, don't move.  Your hair."
My buddy and I were laughing so hard when we looked through the photos. 

Fun times, I need more of those.

最好的大概是我的“化妆和发型”。其实他跟照片不相干,只是当替身演员而已。突然,他说:“Valerie,不要动。你的头发。”看照片的时候我和我的朋友都笑开了。
我需要更多玩乐的时间。

Rising from the Mist

Happy Chinese New Year! After repeated phone calls, messages and e-mails basically saying, "Valerie.... where in the WORLD are you?", I have decided that my vacation is long over.  In this period of time, I have thought a bit, laughed a lot and never cried.  I can honestly say that it's one of the best experiences of my life, I love the freedom.  Freedom from social constraints, expectations and love.  In that time, I loved nobody but myself.  Valentine's Day, like last year, was just another day.  To me, I am ok with that. 


During this time, I spent my days in places like this.  A relaxing pool of warmth and minerals, contemplating my next step to discovering my direction and contribution.  The geography in Niseko is gifted with these natural springs and each other is different from the next.  Yet, all of them have one similar property...medically beneficial.  An excellent excuse for daydreaming.

On that note, thank you for supporting me through this time!
