“I was raised by my grandmother. Last year she was diagnosed with incurable cancer. The doctor said she will live another year. I don’t want her to go to one of those a nursing homes. That’s why I gave up my apartment and in a few weeks ill move in with her. She was the one who raised me now it’s my turn to take care of her.”
“What will be the hardest part about leaving your own apartment?”
“Probably giving up my freedom. No more parties, no more bringing home girls.”

“We are friends but like cousins.. but actually friends..”

“I spotted the tiger from across the street. I ran after him and asked his parents for permission to take a picture. They agreed but I couldn’t get the little tiger’s attention. I teamed up with mummy and we started making funny noises and faces. Eventually it was mummy who managed to make him smile. All of this happened within a two minute time frame. For any observer passing by, this scenery must have been quite entertaining.”

“I don’t really have big goals as an artist. To me it’s more the journey that intrigues me.”

Me: “What’s that in your hands?”
He: “I made a spider at school today, look!”
She: “He is really afraid of spiders.”
He: “No I’m not”
She: “Yes you are!”
He: “No I’m not!!!”
She talking to me: “Trust me, he is.”

“I’m involved in an organization which hands out food to homeless people.”
“What did you learn from that experience?”
“That just because you are poor doesn’t mean it’s easy to accept charity. Some of the homeless I have met on the street would rather turn down a food package than going through the humiliation of accepting a free meal.”
