My Pokémon LoFi Wanderlust Content

I created a whole bunch of LoFi content with Pokémon Go AR+ Go Snapshot content!

I focused a lot on Spring Sakura Cherry Blossoms, including while I was in Florida last year.

Here's a Video Project I made from footage I shot THE EXACT same time I shot my Pokémon content:

 

Here's the Pokémon Go Sakura Videos:


 

Here's some of my Autumn Content:

 Summer Content:

 

And, here's a recent Video:

Anyways, I am an avid Pokémon Go Player. I'm currently ALMOST at Level 45. 1 of my favorite parts of this game is that I can go outside, walk around, play, and the world is my game.

Other Stuffs We Did This Summer 2017

What can I say? A Gypset or Bohemian is one of an Artist's Life! 

Well, like I said, Mr. Wang went to Japan, so I as left at home trying to figure out WTF to do about the car accident. It was screwy!

Every day was another adventure...

I took my daughter to IKEA for the first time ever, and my 2nd time ever. I had to use GPS to drive there. And, 1 of the neighbor's robbed the pizza cutter I bought for Heidi. 

I also took her to the IKEA restaurant, and I got a purple lantern.




 Got some plants.




















Been working on an independent film "The Holy Maple Tree"

Started my own Independent Animated Film did some fundraising, and now I have some new equipment: Condenser Mic



My daughter's birthday was at the end of June. I took her shopping, and we're doing animation together. She starts High School and the Vocational Graphic Art Program in September


I've been doing so much art, and independent stuff since the end of the Spring semester.

I'm still not sure if I'm going back to UMASS tho'. My GPA is 3.775 and I'm on the Dean's List.



Gypsetter Summer 2017 So Far



So, the main part of being a Gypset (or Gypsetter) is being an artist. they other part is wandering about, traveling, and dreaming...

Well, I've had a major mix of that happening in my life. Ever since I'd started applying the principles of Dao De Jing (Tao Te Ching) to my life since last year, I've been incredibly busy! I've been heavily into film-making including animation and motion graphics. You can actually see this applied in some of my films: Light Journal Film, and Smattering Thoughts Also Flow. Dao De Jing predates physics & psychology as a field of study and doesn't require a theology.

I'm still technically living within the poor class or poverty in the USA, but a number of circumstances brought me very rewarding experiences. Many of my wishes came true.

I had been wanting a French Press (coffee maker) for a few years. Well, my spouse was graduating this year from UMASS Boston with a BA in Art from the College of Liberal Arts. So, I helped him to get a large grant scholarship to travel to Japan, and YES he got it. Even tho' it was for him, I largely benefited from it myself. No I did not go to Japan with him because my daughter was still in school graduating from Middle School. But, I ended up with some cash and bought a French Press at Marshall's which is down the street from me.

Also, right before Mr. Wang left for Japan, an older gentleman crashed into our minivan and totaled it the day before he left for Japan. This had me driving rentals, and eventually we got a new car, and I got chiropractic care paid for due to injury.

Mr. Wang also got a ticket to fly back to China, from Japan, from his sister and when he came back I got quite a lot of gifts.

Also, my father wanted to spend time with myself and my daughter, and he & my brother got us Amtrack tickets, and we came down to Philadelphia where my father now lives with my brother. My father, brother, and my brother's girl friend were so incredibly generous to us, it's mind blowing! I picked beans in the garden, went swimming, went shopping, and worked on drilling my boho pewter pot project.

My father & brother were so generous to us, that I had a strange experience of after being asked to get whatever I wanted when we were at the Shore and thinking I didn't actually want anything, and that I was just happy to spend time with my family. 

Do you want this? Do you want to do that? 
Actually, I found I didn't... After so long of being so poor, and being without, and being thrust into so much generosity, I just found I didn't want anything other than being with the people I loved. 

My dad was so loving, that I found myself often being grateful, and hugging my dad all the time. It was so different than being a kid in the 1980s and being at the Shore and my dad not wanting to let us play in the arcades and win Batman stuff. This time, he wanted to pay for ANYTHING, and I kind of didn't care about spending money, just hanging out with him and everyone else. 

I also went out and shot stock footage/B-Roll video with my brother around Greater Philadelphia.

My life is way different than it was a few years ago.

DIY Summer Spring Rolls 2016

Summer Salad Spring Rolls 
I've frequently made spring rolls this summer, but when the heat finally hit here in mid July, I just couldn't bear to cook, so we started to make those south Asian style like in Vietnamese or Siamese or Thai restaurants.

I even made my own peanut sauces sometimes, or ate them with salad dressing like vinaigrette.

I've stuffed them with anything from lettuce, to green, to bean sprouts, to avocado, guacamole, tomatoes, tomotilloes, onion, scallions, bell peppers, pickles, cucumbers, carrots, and pickled beats.

Here's some of the cooked spring rolls I or my family collectively made when it wasn't as hot in early July:
