green LA girl in KoreAm

Pick up the July 2008 issue of KoreAm Journal and you’ll see me on page 30, riding my bike helmetlessly –

The short Q&A about eco-living in LA and writing a green blog quotes me saying helpful things like “I keep learning more. There’s always new information out there.” Brilliant!

More seriously, I think the best bit of advice I give is to get out of the house and go to public places with if the summer gets too hot. Stay cool, make friends –

Thanks to the KoreAm people for including me. I don’t subscribe, but flipping through this one issue made me realize that there are many Korean-American subcultures — with its own heroes and celebrities — that I’m completely oblivious to. Who is this Penn fellow on the cover, for ex? WTF is UFC?

I did discover my new fave card company though: Chopsticks, Please. To the left’s my fave

Inside: But I’m not your geisha bitch!

Totally thinking about buying a few, despite the fact the cards don’t seem to have any recycled content.

I’m also just not sure what occasion I would actually use said card for…. Ideas?

Update, 9/4/08: Here’s the web version of the KoreAm article.

  1. Ultimate Fighting Championship. It’s the organization for mixed martial arts, the sport where they beat each other senseless. I admit I find it rather entertaining…

  2. That definitely looks like a birthday card to me. I love it.

  3. I tried to go to the magazine’s website, but couldn’t find you on there. Maybe it’s coming soon?

    Those cards look good for a dinner party that you have catered.

  8. Brian — Sounds violent! Thanks for the info :)

    yoel — I think most of that mag’s print only –

    summer — I generally store the helmet in the basket when I’m not riding the bike….

    Thanks for the kind words, everyone :)
