shame shame

Posted by Jay Ju on Oct 19, 2008 in My Words

so i last night i was walking up orchard to meet up with my friend juan at mashall stack on allen and rivington in the LES and i saw this person laid out on the ground. at first i thought “what the hell? must be some homeless guy drugged out or drunk.” but then i noticed a cane on the ground next to him as i walked by. i kept looking back thinking, this guy is not for real. other people were passing him too. then i noticed how old he was and he started trying to get up with a lot of difficulty. i stopped to see if he needed help. finally i walked back and helped him up, no one else was doing it, he was really pretty fragile and weak. his legs were shaking and i couldn’t believe how hard it was for him to stand up even with my help. after getting up he said something to me in spanish, which i didn’t understand. then we went our separate ways but i still felt like a jerk for hesitating so long to help him. i guess even after eight years away, i’m still a cynical new yorker. hrmm. boo.

another bill

Posted by Jay Ju on Oct 8, 2008 in My Words

i went the mini-market the other night to get some water and a soda. i gave the cashier a ten spot and he took it, glanced at it and then said something to me in chinese. of course i didn’t understand so he said in english that he wanted another bill. i was confused but i simply gave him a twenty i had. when i got home i looked at my ten bill and it looked and felt real to me. could it be fake? so then i googled what the new tens look like and it looked the same, so i was relieved that it wasn’t just my own naivete that got me stuck with this bill. but then i noticed that there is supposed to be a watermark of hamilton that you can only see if you put it up to the light. unfortunately the ten i had didn’t have that mark. damn, i didn’t realize they could make them so realistic. i would never have known if the cashier at the little local market didn’t catch it in a glance. i don’t know how he saw it so easily. he musta had some x-ray vision or something. i guess when you see cash all day long you learn to catch those things quickly. so now i’m going to be paranoid about the cash i recieve, hahah. it’s kind of annoying that so many places in the LES only take cash, otherwise i would just use my debit card and avoid all this petty crap.

fall is here…

Posted by Jay Ju on Oct 2, 2008 in My Words

so i think fall is officially here in nyc. i’m excited, cause it is my favorite time of the year. the air feels crisp, the garbage bags on the street don’t get cooked and funky under the hot sun. and it still makes me want to go out to buy some composition books and #2 pencils like i did in elemtary school. well i still do but that’s not the point. :P i enjoy that people in the city start dressing up a little more, looking very metropolitan. it’s that in between time when it’s not so hot that you just don’t give a fuck and you’d walk around nekkid if you could, and not so cold that you look like the michelin man.

sorry, michelin man, you’re just not sexy. it will be nice to see the colors of the leaves change. after eight years of no fall weather, it will be a treat.
