Chinese Haircut

I had another stupid crazy dream that I don't really remember that well. I was in rehearsal for some play I was in with Cory Webster and...

The Nanjing Gig

NANCY

I sleep in until about 10:15 and when I wake up I already have a text from Nancy. We were supposed to meet in front of the school at...

A Chinese Hospital

The crazy dreams are back. This time, I go to a giant outdoor meat pie festival with my family. It's basically a big farmer's market...

The dreams are back. This one I still remember pretty vividly, because it was really scary. I was living in a tent with some friends...

Rice Diaries: Day 5

I guess I slept well last night. No horrifying dreams, for a nice change of pace. I decided to start the day by taking Benji out and...

Rice Diary: Day 4

Incomprehensible Dream Notes: Comic strip/video game, hope versus kindness, started as X-men battle but turned into mom reading, cum...

The Rice Diaries: Day 3 (Fernanda)

Another crazy dream: This one was Jon Glazeresque. I think it was maybe even Jon Glazer in the dream, so that makes sense. He throws a...

The Rice Diaries: Day 2
