This is my final project for Advanced Graphic Design Seminar SP2020 in Minneapolis College of Art and Design. (Part 2/2)
This is a letter I wrote and presented in the film as the narrator. This is a love letter that I wrote to someone who exists but also not, someone exists somewhere in the world but not yet existed in my life-- it is to my future lover, my unknown partner. In Chinese culture, people burn things that you want to deliver to someone who has been long gone or someone you wish to be blessed. Knows that It is an undeliverable letter with no address to ship to, I decided to burn it, and pray for the wind would deliver it to him somewhere in the world.

To my dearest future darling,
Two years and twenty-six days,
I am still waiting to know your name.
Which city do you live in?
I hope you are doing fine during this dark time,
Right now, I'm listening to Grace Kelly from MIKA,
the song always makes my heart beat more rhythmic.
What kind of music do you like?
Do you hate to eat those black olives on pizza too?
The world is so big.
Many people drink Coke, and others drink Pepsi
…
I thought they taste the same?
Do you call it Pop or Soda?
Today, I took a long nap.
When I woke up,
I saw the afternoon sunlight went through the windows,
and spilling on the carpet in my room.
They are still shining like the ripples on the Mississippi River,
yet so beautiful like the smile on your face.
Until we meet,
please take care of yourself.
I love you,
Marvin Chang
