Then karoke-ing next door at Sing Sing, where this writer experienced an epiphany (brought on by decent sake and an alcoholic water melon drink from the gods and JF and former WORD Senior Editor Jonathan Mena [who won’t be seen until the final photo spread]).
Sogyel Lhungay, a graduate of NYU, left. Jackie Fernandez, right, of course.
Why the celebration?
