A New Yorker In DC: A Weekend Away

Featuring DC's Hottest Photographer

A New Yorker In DC: A Weekend Away
Cina Nguyen

So last week I finally had my long awaited and much needed vacation from life, Denny's and New York. I was so excited to get out of the state for a bit and have a change of scenery as well as see my Grandma, Aunt, and DC babies.

While I spent a good portion of my time off relaxing, I also spent a good portion of it rebooting my body and getting my health in order. I ran, did sit-ups, as well as drink my trusty 310 nutrition shakes and Flat Tummy Tea to keep me on track, in addition to just eating better and paying attention to what I ate.

Now you may ask, if I'm on vacation why would I worry about eating right and exercising? I should be drinking champagne every night with strawberries on my tits sucking on a buttered lobster tail! And I did, but when else would I really have the time to focus on my body and health? However, there was another reason, that upcoming Sunday I would be having a photoshoot with iconic DC Native Photographer Cina! A truly talented photographer who knew my aesthetic very well! I was so excited when she said she had time to shoot me before her shoot with Cherry Glazer, like what a legend! Honestly, truly. So, naturally for the shoot I had to look and feel my best.

The Photoshoot went Amazing! She was focused and very easy to work with. I watched in awe as she effortlessly directed me and created art. I had a feeling the photos would be amazing but nothing compared to when I actually saw them. She had captured my essence perfectly! Even though I didn't have my signature green locks or some other funky color, I still felt and looked myself. It was amazing! I couldn't believe someone could capture my essence so perfectly. Cina's work with me had affirmed what I already knew to be true, and that is that she's got talent!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
