winter in NY

"You gotta have a lot of things you can have fun in NY!"

You would say that to me, but but but, there are only two places I exist in my life; my studio in Brooklyn and Jewelry District in Manhattan.

I'm running streets to get things done around 47th Street and 6th Avenue; casting, buying gold chains, seeing a stone setter, buying 1.5mm black diamonds and go back for another casting.

Someone told me that there is a team of undercover police in this jewelry district but I still don't know which guy is one of them. I'm coming here so often that I might recognize them in the future?

And this year, again I am watching this big Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center.

It reminds me that it's been another year already, and at the same time it makes me sentimental thinking of my father who gracefully passed away last year, and my mother and sister living in Japan.

It's the season that people in NY are even nicer than usual and that makes me want to be a better person.
You opened a door for me and told me that my big fat cotton bag was lovely.  You made my day.

Lovely and sentimental, that's a winter in NY to me.
