White Out

There is an annual white themed rave in Taiwan that has been going on for 8 years now, and I was fortunate enough to attend this year. DJ's that performed this year include Vicetone, Tom Staar, and Heatbeat.

The rave scene in Taiwan is definitely growing rapidly as EDM gains its popularity in Asia. To be honest, I was not a huge fan of EDM initially, but after attending Ultra and the White party, I've actually grown to really enjoy it. As for my outfit, it was explicitly stated that in order to get in the party, you must dress in ALL WHITE. They almost didn't let me in because I wasn't dressed in 80% white clothing. I went with extremely minimalistic pieces with a black and white simple palette to highlight the white. I actually found this top a few hours before the rave because I was not happy with what I had on initially.

nobody said it was easy

I find it extremely hard to pull together an outfit that is both weather appropriate and comfortable in Taiwan. It is so humid and hot here that I feel like I am sweaty all the time. This outfit is breathable and perfect for a casual day out with some friends.

June 5th was my mom's 54th birthday, so we had dinner at a panoramic restaurant on the 85th floor of Taipei 101. The view was breathtaking as we overlooked the whole city of Taipei while enjoying our delicious four course meals. Family always comes first, and I just wanted to remind everyone to always appreciate the love that our family unconditionally provides us with. Treasure the time you have with them because you never know where you will be in a few years. It's definitely been hard on my family with me living in NY, my sister in LA, and my parents in Taiwan. Having to travel across the globe simply to reunite with my family has made me realize that I need to take advantage of every moment I've got with my family.

Love Always,

Eric

Summertime Sadness ▲

Summer is halfway gone, and I still haven't gotten my license or a job. The heat and my laziness has taken over me and all I want to do is watch movies on my computer all day. It is very unlike me to feel this unmotivated and indifferent about everything. I guess the thought of going to college and starting life on my own has hit me a little bit, that's why all I want to do is lounge around and do nothing. I need to take advantage of the time I have left in California and actually complete all the things I was so pumped up to do at the beginning of the summer. I'm just glad I'm moving to New York, where I can get away from this crazy hot weather.
