“It’s only writing. It’s only drawing, and remembering something, that’s all. Caption...caption– clueless in new york...”
With that, Fun Home explains my summer nyc life surprisingly well. After nearly 6 months, I was back for the first time. This visit showed me that in a single moment, it’s possible to be both overwhelmed by the unexpected ways a place that you once knew has changed, but also be terrified that certain things still haven’t changed at all. No matter how many places I move around to, a set of very stubborn problems linger along with me. But yay for optimism, i’ll also say that one of the biggest nyc changes i saw was that all the scaffolding was gone around my old neighbourhood. Apparently while I wasn’t looking, construction progressed along to the next stage 🙃👍🏻 #NewerYork
