Happy Birthday Ouxu.

Ouxu and I met about two years ago via myspace (don’t be mad that i’m displaying your first myspace message to me o): she wrote:

i gotta make a comment about your page. first page i’ve seen that looks so clean. i really like this. and then i clicked on your logo. EVEN MORE FRESHNESS LOOKING AT ME. AND money pics ??

if you made the pics that are showin’ , more compliments for you..

my name is ouxu
a pleasure to bump into your page.

Of course i replyed and kept in touch. She visited NYC that summer and we literally ran into each other in Central Park. Since then we’ve become pretty good friends. She was in town again last summer and we did little photoshoot together (she is a makeup artist). Eventually I hope to get out to Holland and visit.

Happy Birthday O! (how do i say it in Dutch, Hartelijk gefeliciteerd!)

She is now the one taking the money pics. Her flickr stream here
