I met Liu Wen on 14th Street!
Me: (doing double take, staring
er, aren’t you…?
Liu Wen: (raising her eyebrows)
Me: … that model?
Liu Wen: Yes, I am.
Me: Wow! Hey, I write about you all the time! On my blog! (like she cares)
Liu Wen: (immediately interested– who knew?
Really? What is it?
Me: Brklyngirl dot wordpress dot com.
Liu Wen: Cool! I’m Liu Wen.
Me: God. I know.
Liu Wen: It’s nice to meet you.
Me: You are so beautiful. Can I take a photo?
Liu Wen (she is wearing a denim jacket and a long hippie dress, carrying groceries) WHAT? NOW? um, really?
Me: No! You look great!
Liu Wen: Like a close up or far away?
Me: er, I don’t care (wow she thinks like a model)
I take a photo. We smile and shake hands. Now, how do I upload a photo from my phone to here. Will figure it out, kids.
That was awesome.
