Austin Nguyen
- Seventeen; runs on cat naps, honey-sweetened black tea, and the breaths of the Mojave Desert; likes the indisposable quality of photos taken with disposable cameras, the chilled solitude offered by towering book shelves, and the curling indentations of pen on fast food napkins; a closeted potential humanities major who likes to tinkle with rubik's cubes; has a sworn duty to reassure the human race that gravity is indeed functioning properly by accordingly testing it on a daily basis through graceful, measured acts of falling forward in public areas (aka tripping on air); this is his way of giving back to the world and he sincerely hopes to (will) find a better one.

Inscribed on the back of a postcard from a friend:
“There are roughly three New Yorks. There is, first, the New York of the man or woman who was born there, who takes the city for granted and accepts its size, its turbulence as natural and inevitable. Second, there is the New York of the commuter - the city that is devoured by locusts each day and spat out at night. Third, there is New York of the person who was born somewhere else and came to New York in quest of something… commuters give the city its tidal restlessness, natives give it solidity and continuity, but the settlers give it passion.”
See you soon, New York City.
Pictures of @seasquared taking pictures at the Institute of Contemporary Art, one of my favorite places in the city. You can always trust the harbor to look mesmerizing regardless of clouds or sun. The most memorable exhibit was Issac Julien’s Ten Thousand Waves (featuring Maggie Cheung!), a haunting immersion video installation spread across nine projection screens.
truer words, never. I have already gone to my emotionally blocked-off place so as not to think any more about ithi i watched this episode once and now i need to never watch it again okay bye
Last August, I celebrated a fellow NYSCer’s birthday and recent move to Nevada by dangling off one of these prongs at midnight and the city stretched into forever and flickered as golden as ever that night and I remember apologizing for Vegas’s lack of tact and being really grateful for a number of things
