flashback to childhood: chinatown. i grew up in sf's chinatown from k-8. it's been something that's shaped my life and probably one of the most unique experience a gal could have. i went here although the original campus on stockton and clay is now a grocery store. darn you 1993 quake. so this morning when i embarked through ny's chinatown to work, it was like old times. walking through chinatown in the wee hours of the morning totally reminded me of trekking to school. same fish vendors stocking from trucks. delicious sweet pastries baked to perfection. it brought me back to a simpler time when all i cared about was playing chinese jump rope and homework. i was a nerd, but a happy nerd.
