Waiting
At Han's Deli(take-out snack bar)
I bought a small croquisbook and a cool sharp pencil.
And Started to spend waiting times for drawing.
I usually draw when I'm alone but I wanted to remember what I'm feeling on the street.
I used to hate people watching me drawing.I'm quite shy I think.
So I decided to pretend that I'm alone,listening music.Though I was in a place anybody can see what I'm doing.
Sunday I went out for dinner with my brother DogShit(from now,'DS').
The place was crowded,we had to wait about 25mins.So I drew these while 6 or more foreigners watching me.
DS is always interested in my drawings and askes me few questions about them.
DS:Is he sleeping?
SK:No.Something stings his heart.He feels it and tries to focus on.
DS:What stings his heart?
SK:I don't know.He doesn't even seem to know.
DS:What's wrong with this face?
SK:It's sad macho cresent moon.
DS:Why sad?
SK:Because he's old and all alone.
SK:It's me.
DS:What's this on your T-shirt?You're not wearing this!
SK:It's a giant eye.It scares birds.
DS:I didn't know that my sister was a scarecrow.
길이 아닌곳은 가지 마 Don't go outside of the way
남들이 간 곳만 가 Just follow what others have been
부탁이고 명령이고 소원이야 It's an asking an order and a wish
After reading these lines DS asked just one question.
Why does she want us to follow the way?
I told him,because that's what she's for.She's a human roadsign.
But actually It was something I want to tell myself.
Someone told me yesterday that I'm too selfish.
That's what I always heard from someone I care.
And from the moment,I can't find anything to say.
It hurts more and more.There's nothing I can do.
I'm emotionally retarded I feel.

You have no idea how often I've heard those same words: I'm selfish. First they love how independent-minded you are, and then that becomes selfishness. Sometimes you feel like you can never win.
I love all your drawings. You are so incredibly talented and you have a way with words which is even more amazing considering this is not your first language. I can just imagine how much more poetic you are in Korean. I wish I knew enough to be able to understand.
I tried once to draw outside.
I was at a deserted rail crossing.
I was so nervous.
I was afraid that someone would
sneak up on my while I was
concentrating.
I decided to just take snapshots
with my camera and draw from them
when I got home.
I still always carry a sketchbook.
Just in case.
l/Oh.L for love!I'm happy to see you here!
I believe that everybody is selfish.especially those ones who said you're selfish to me&you.
My brother said that I'm like a scarecrow,but I'm more like scarelove.
And about words,Thank you,It's a really great compliment!!Most of friends tell me 'Stop posing when you're writing,Silly!'
And I like your writings as well and I wish I could understand better.Let's keep trying!
joe/yea,being sneaked up is really frustrating!but camera and my eyes are so different(especially to me,You can see why easily after see photos I took),I'm training myself.
Have I told you how much I like your photos&drawings?You make things into something.I always hesitate to comment your blog but I haven't.But anyways,I love your writings,drawings,photos.
Thank you!
It's always nice to know when
someone looks at my photos and
drawings and reads my words.
I'd be glad for any comments.
If you're hesitant to leave
a comment on my blog, you can
always send a note by email.
I really like the funniness in these drawings, Skitsch!
