love my muma

this is a super old pic of my mums when she first came to the states/moved from the Philippines to Boston:


i love everything about it - her leather jacket, the goofy old vintage eyeglasses, her poofy bangs and long hair for a change, and of course the river and the trees covered in snow. snow is one of the best yet worst things about living in the East Coast, but the fresh layers of white in this picture and my mum's timid yet anticipating smile just make me feel so happy with life and growing up here. i love you mumaaa<3!
