“At the end of the year, George and I drove to Liverpool and covered old haunts, Speke, Hale, the Institute, the Cathedral and the Philharmonic Pub. There was a nasty moment in Grafton Park, West Kirby, when a Securicor man drove up to my old house, number 27, where I had spent 25 years planning escape. Putting his camera away, George and I made our escape by fast car, not wishing to go into a long explanation of why one of the former Beatles was taking Instamatic pictures of someone else’s house.” - Derek Taylor “The Big School, Liverpool Institute, was a real pain in the neck. [...] It was such a dump [in the 1950s]. It could have looked good. It could have had the paint scraped off the woodwork and been decorated like the Victoriana it was. I took Olivia to see it. Coming from California she couldn’t believe it. There was a night-school on so we were able to wander around and look at all the rooms where I had been.” - George Harrison, I Me Mine (x)

“[George’s passing] brings back clearly the first time I saw him, at the door of the Art School canteen, asking for John, this teenage schoolboy with the most beautiful dark eyes. The Institute, as the boy’s school was called, shared a courtyard with the canteen, and Paul and George used to call in at lunchtimes. George had a depth that was evident even then — much younger than us art students, but ages deeper.” - Pat Jourdan, The Beatles Ireland Book of Condolences, 2001 (x)

Reading about Paul’s time at the Liverpool Institute and wondering why we don’t talk about Paul’s close friend from the ‘Inny’ Ian James more often. Especially considering Ian has provided quotes like:

“What brought us together as soulmates was our love of music.”

And:

“Paul and I would walk to my home from school and sit in the back yard where I taught him his first chords, before he bought his own guitar, and I’d change the strings around so he could practice. I still have the guitar although it’s barely playable now.”

And:

“Immediately following the Skiffle craze, Rock ‘n’ Roll arrived and we couldn’t get enough of it. We’d go to all the travelling fairs where they played it non-stop and where we wore our infamous matching white jackets (with sparkles in the material) and drainies [fancied being the British Everly Brothers].

And:

“Paul and I would visit all the record shops in Liverpool and know all the female staff by name. They would play us all the R ‘n’ R and R & B records that had just been released. I remember the record shop where I bought my first rock record—the double-sider Don’t Be Cruel/Hound Dog. Paul was with me at the time and he was with me when I bought Lend Me Your Comb by Carl Perkins which I’ve probably still got in the original 78 rpm.

Which decades later resulted in:

“On the last visit to his office I walked up the last flight of stairs and just as I turned the corner into his office I heard the strains of Hound Dog blasting from the juke box he keeps in one corner. A nice thought from an old pal.”

Plus:

Picture of Paul strumming Ian’s guitar in his office at MPL in London. Note the vintage photo of Ian propped up on the guitar – the same photo seen above.

“It was an assumption—almost an article of faith—amongst many biogeographers, ecologists, and paleoecologists that the great regional rainforests were, at Western contact, the product of natural climatic, biogeographic, and ecological processes,” wrote paleoecologist Chris Hunt, now based at Liverpool John Moores University, and his colleague, Cambridge University archaeologist Ryan Rabett, in a 2014 paper. “It was widely thought that peoples living in the rainforest caused little change to vegetation.” New research is challenging this long-held assumption. Recent paleoecological studies by Hunt and other colleagues show evidence of “disturbance” in the vegetation around Pa Lungan and other Kelabit villages, indicating that humans have shaped and altered these jungles not just for generations—but for millennia. Borneo’s inhabitants from a much more distant past likely burned the forests and cleared lands to cultivate edible plants. They created a complex system in which farming and foraging were intertwined with spiritual beliefs and land use in ways that scientists are just beginning to understand. Samantha Jones, lead author on this investigation and researcher at the Catalan Institute of Human Paleoecology and Social Evolution, has studied ancient pollen cores in the Kelabit Highlands as part of the Cultured Rainforest Project. This is a U.K.-based team of anthropologists, archaeologists, and paleoecologists that is examining the long-term and present-day interactions between people and rainforests. The project has led to continuing research that is forming a new scientific narrative of the Borneo highlands. People were most likely manipulating plants from as early as 50,000 years ago in the lowlands, Jones says. That’s around the time humans likely first arrived. Scholars had long classified these early inhabitants as foragers—but then came the studies at Niah Cave. There, in a series of limestone caverns near the coast, scientists found paleoecological evidence that early humans got right to work burning the forest, managing vegetation, and eating a complex diet based on hunting, foraging, fishing, and processing plants from the jungle. This late Pleistocene diet spanned everything from large mammals to small mollusks, to a wide array of tuberous taros and yams. By 10,000 years ago, the folks in the lowlands were growing sago and manipulating other vegetation such as wild rice, Hunt says. The lines between foraging and farming undoubtedly blurred. The Niah Cave folks were growing and picking, hunting and gathering, fishing and gardening across the entire landscape.

[...]

“The Cultured Rainforest project has shown how profoundly entangled the lives of humans and other species in the rainforest are,” says University of London anthropologist Monica Janowski, a member of the project team who has spent decades studying highland Borneo cultures. “This entanglement has developed over centuries and millennia and succeeds in maintaining a relatively balanced relationship between species.” Borneo’s jungle is, in fact, anything but untouched: What we see is a result of both human hands and natural forces, working in tandem. The Kelabit are a little bit farmer and a little bit forager with no clear line between, Janowski says. This dualistic approach to land use may reveal a deeper human nature. “Scratch any modern human and you will find, under the surface, a forager,” she says. “We have powerful foraging instincts. We also have powerful instincts to manage plants and animals. Both of these instincts have been with us for millennia.”

high garden academy — chapter 35.

⟢ synopsis: a new school year begins at the high garden academy boarding school, bringing with it new students, and among them, the new center of attention for the drama-thirsty student body: the hong sisters. eunchae and her mysterious and unsympathetic older sister, daein, who oddly seem uninterested in the secrets, legends, and gossip of their new school. winter, the institution's top student, and karina, the popular girl and promising pianist, never imagined they would end up so closely involved with hong daein.

masterlist | prev | next

[written chapter]

"you can go." announced daein in her monotone voice, following the girl's body with her eyes as she investigated the room.

"this place is a mess." karina ignored her, looking around.

"i told you to leave." she repeated, annoyed.

"do you like soccer?" she asked indifferent to the older girl's words as she analyzed pictures taped to the wall of various players, daein on a soccer field wearing a team's jersey, even pennants of it, and a picture of them apparently winning a championship. "what team is this?"

"you don't care." she walked quickly over to her, taking a personalized jersey with her name on it out of her hands and putting it back in its place.

"arsenal?" she turned to face her, increasing the closeness between them, enough so that their arms were rubbing against each other.

"no, the reds." she replied bitterly and turned away, heading for the door.

"you mean..." she folded her arms and looked at her funny as she tilted her head slightly to the side. "arsenal." repeated.

"liverpool." she opened the door to her room abruptly and stretched her arm out to point outside. "we've already found your dog, go."

"can i borrow your custom jersey?" she glanced sideways at the garment they were holding earlier, a defiant smile on her face.

"no, you don't even know the team." she shook her arm, reinforcing the order she'd given her earlier.

"it's liverpool." she grimaced in obviousness.

"go away." pointed again.

"can i borrow your denim jacket, the one you wear all the time?" she lifted her chin in the older's direction, indicating the coat she was wearing.

"can you stop joking around and go?" she took quick steps towards her so she could grab her shoulders once she caught up to her and start pushing her out of the room.

"won't you lend it to me?" she inquired putting a tender and innocent tone to her voice, but got no response other than continuing to be forcibly removed from the place. "it's fine, it's all ripped anyway." she dismissed arrogantly.

"it's not ripped." she stopped short, looking at her coldly as the pianist turned to face her.

"and what's this?" she brought her hand to one of the clothing's chest pockets, which was all frayed, pitted and burned, possibly from playing with a lighter near the fabric.

"it's not like the it's ruined because of that."

"then lend it to me." she asked with a mischievous, flirtatious smile.

"outside." she put her hands on karina's body again to direct her into the hallway.

"wait, wait, wait." she exerted force with her feet so they wouldn't be able to move her.

"what do you want?" her tone was beginning to sound severely irritated.

"won't you console me for almost losing my dog?" she was trying to annoy her, she liked how she reacted.

"no, of course not, we already found the animal."

after saying that, both of their attention was channeled to the door of one of the bedrooms opening. from it, out came kim minjeong with her arms laden with books, and she stopped when she saw the duo just out of daein's room.

"hello, minjeong." smiled the biker broadly at the sight of the girl.

"hello." she reciprocated hesitantly as she saw the company she was keeping.

karina's brow furrowed in surprise and confusion at hong's sudden change of mood, quickly understanding what was going on there.

she couldn't explain why, but she didn't like that daein liked minjeong, but not her.

"i'll help you with that." daein wanted to approach the redhead to take some of her books, but the popular girl's hand on her chest stopped her.

"you can't until you buy me something to eat." she demanded.

"what?" she said in an outburst.

"i had a really hard day." she pouted, pretending that the star student would see that and decide it was better to leave them alone.

and so it was. kim rolled her eyes and, with a bored expression began to walk down the hallway, away from them.

she knew something was going on between those two. so why would daein put her in the middle? was she just playing with her?

"come on." forced yu on the older one, wrapping her arm around hers as she kept her eyes on winter, proud of how she made her react, and starting to move the biker against her will.

"i'm not going to spend money on you." she warned, following her because she had no choice.

"you will because i almost lost my dog." the more they got to the communal parts of the school, the more people watched the pair oddly.

"and i helped you find him, we're even." she sentenced, both stopping in front of a vending machine that sat in the commons area where students could watch TV and access some entertainment to pass the time.

"come on, aeinie, it's just some chocolate snacks."

"don't call me aein." she nagged.

"it's not much of an investment for you, aeinie, your family earns very well from their drug dealing or whatever." she waved her free hand, unconcerned about what the hong family's occupation is.

"we don't deal drugs and i'm not buying anything for you." she removed her arm from her grip roughly.

karina was about to say something else, daein already being able to notice that air of altitude and irony she had been wearing since the room, but was interrupted by the double door leading to the common room swung wide open and through it appeared giselle and ningning, who approached their best friend agitatedly.

"jimin, we don't have much time." began the japanese girl, bending down so she could put her hands on her knees and rest her body.

"your parents are here." continued ning, gesturing towards the door, indicating that they were nearby. "they're upset."

"what?" her eyes widened in surprise and nervousness. "why? what happened?" she questioned upset.

"they know you're dating jongin." the brunette explained straightening her body. "your father is very upset." she added.

"but they can't see us, otherwise they'll know we told you." the girl took her friend's hand. "lie, manipulate, disguise. good luck, friend." ningning encouraged as she dragged aeri away as fast as she could.

the blackhaired was left in shock, her pupils lost, trying her best to find a solution. daein behind her had a winning smile, and leaned her body against the machine they were going to use earlier, watching the girl expectantly for something to finally go wrong.

in the distance, from down the hallway, the pianist could make out her father's voice and quickly had to do something to save herself.

"i'm going to tell on you." she spun on her heels, turning her body in daein's direction, then taking her face between her fingers and using her forearms to push her chest so that her back was against the machine.

"what the fuck are you doing?" she raised her hands to try to get the girl off of her, but she was doing everything in her power to stay in place.

"if you don't kiss me, i'll tell on you to the administration." she threatened.

with speed she moved her face until her lips collided with the older girl's, who, in response to the shock and the threat, inertitiously returned the kiss.

karina's hands remained firm holding the biker's jaw, although sometimes she slid them back to gently tug on the hair at the nape of her neck, while daein grabbed the girl's waist, confused about whether it was right to do all this.

the kiss was hectic and hurried, as karina felt about avoiding her father's anger.

and to save her relationship with jongin, maybe, possibly that too. maybe.

the door opened, diverting the gaze of all the students who were stunned by the scene to the new presence of the coordinator and the parents.

"what are you doing? stop it right now!" exclaimed the employee.

the younger girl heeded her superior's shout, but before parting completely, she left a few more chaste kisses on daein's lips.

after all, she had wanted to do that ever since hong appeared.

"what is this?" the administrator questioned altered once he, along with karina's parents, were close enough to the couple.

"song-nim," the girl called confidently to her superior, meanwhile, her arms caught daein's waist and her head laid back against her shoulder. "i was just kissing my girlfriend, you don't have to get upset." she continued calmly.

hearing the term she used to describe her, daein had the urge to rip out of her embrace and deny everything, but a moment of lucidity came to her quicker. the coordinator was right there and karina could give her away right then. so she just let out a long sigh and then rested one of her hands on the opposite back.

"physical contact of that kind is strictly forbidden-"

"girlfriend?" jimin's father interrupted, raising an eyebrow and watching daein carefully.

"my girlfriend." the girl affirmed, straightened her body and pranced happily in place.

she took her hand in hers and used the other to point at her, as if she was showing her off. the smile on her face was a perfect performance, it showed confidence and at the same time, she looked like she was the happiest person in the world to be with this girl she doesn't really know at all.

daein just smiled sideways and nodded her head in surrender.

"i thought that..." the elegant man spoke, lost in thought, still analyzing the biker. "what's your name?" he suddenly changed topics.

"daein." replied jimin swiftly.

"yes." confirmed the oldest judging her with her eyes for speaking instead. "hong daein." she clarified turning her gaze back to the politician.

"hong?" inquired the pianist's mother now.

"yes, hong." nodded her daughter excitedly. "the hong dynasty that owns the dr-."

"international trade." cut off the sentence the named one. "an international trade network." she pinched karina's hand to reprimand her.

"oh, right, i know your parents." commented the man in a more cheerful tone.

"really?" the two teenage girls blurted out in unison.

"yeah, we're actually friends." he let out a laugh due to her joy. "it's amazing that you two ended up together." he leaned over and patted daein's head.

karina laughed. and daein had to keep herself under control not to smack his hand.

"amazing." she agreed with bitterness hidden in her tone.

"how lucky you met and liked each other." he continued ecstatically. "don't punish them." he turned to the supervisor. "i apologize in their place." he gave her a polite grimace, and the employee nodded his head.

who could say no to the great senator yu?

"you know?" included herself mrs. yu. "you should come home for dinner this weekend." she proposed, pointing to daein.

hong's eyes widened in surprise and jimin began to shake her head, both started talking at the same time, trying to explain all the reasons why the idea was bad.

"i don't even have permission to leave." finished the biker.

"i'll sign the permission for you." offered the yu patriarch.

"what?"

"i'll sign you a permit to go home for dinner this weekend." he reiterated.

— if he makes me an exit permit now, i can find a way to use it again later. — thought hong to herself.

"then of course i can." she exclaimed excitedly, wrapping her arms around the younger girl's waist and lifting her off the floor in celebration, then lowering her down. "we'll be there, won't we, love?" she began kissing karina on her cheeks.

"of course we will." she was very confused with that reaction, her words came out carefully because she didn't understand what was going on. "of course we will, aeinie." she said again, trying to sound more confident, earning another pinch because of the nickname.

The chilly wind was biting your cheeks making you cuddle up more into your boyfriend’s arm. You were already wearing a coat but Trent’s warmth was more comfortable.

He looked at you with a smile, eyes all soft as they glanced over your figure. “Ya cold, baby?”

You sniffled, nudging your nose into his arm more, “Jus’ a little.”

Trent can tell that wasn’t entirely the case, but before he could tease you more about it, your eyes lit up by something in front you.

“Trent, look! There’s a photo booth!”

There was just a couple that got out of the photo booth and you were already buzzing with excitement. “Can we go?” you asked, a pout forming on your lips, hoping that it could sway your boyfriend.

Trent was already agreeing with you, you didn’t even have to put on that cute face of yours. Anything you want Trent would get it for you.

He chuckled, leaving a peck on your forehead, “ ‘f course, baby.” he hand grazed your cheek. Your cheeks were freezing.

You squealed and quickly dragged him to the photo booth. Luckily it wasn’t already occupied, so you both took your seat, shrugging off your thick coat.

“Alright, so we need to plan the poses!”

Trent was listening intently to every single thing you were saying. Although he did got distracted at times by how pretty you were, and the way your smile is just so captivating, it took him in a daze.

“Got it?”

A fond smile formed on his face, it instituted his cute dimples which made you smile wider.

“Yeah, I got it.”

After taking three photo shots, you were on your last one. He knew you where most excited about it. Your idea pose was him kissing you on the cheek while holding your jaw as you grin the biggest grin of your life. You said that it would look pretty. It was actually based on a photo that Robbo took of you two at an after party when Liverpool have won the UCL. It was one of the first picture of you both as a couple so you were trying to recreate that memory.

“Last one!”

The machine was already counting down so you got into your pose, already smiling the widest smile you could until your cheeks were starting to hurt.

10 . . .

9 . . .

Trent couldn’t keep his eyes off of you, even after the previous pictures where the camera click had went off. His eyes were stuck on you, taking in your features.

8 . . .

7 . . .

He softly moved his hand up your neck and to your jaw. The veins of his hands sending little bumps across your skin making your stomach flutter.

6 . . .

As it hit 5, Trent whispered, “Can I kiss you?”

4 . . .

You furrowed your eyebrows in confusion, “Course you can, handsome.” patting his thigh using your hand that was already resting there.

Before you know it, Trent was turning your head to face his, his warm hand now navigated around the back of your neck. His pillowy lips landed on yours, as his other hand wrapped itself around your back, dipping you down a little. Like those romantic movies that you guys always watch. You squeaked out a surprised gasp but immediately calmed down, winding your arms around his shoulders, as you brought him down with you.

1.

You were so lost in each other that you didn’t even notice when the flash had gone off. Your face was hot, your mind was all fuzzy and your heart felt so so full.

Breaking from the kiss with your breaths mingling. Your eyesight was a little blurry so you tried to focus is in by blinking.

“Do you think that’ld look good?” Trent whispered, as he catch his breath. He squeezed your waist, trying to bring your attention to him.

You dumbly nodded your head, “Yeah.”

Trent airily laughed, the kind that brought butterflies to your stomach and its making you feel a little bit dizzy. He pecked your nose, once, twice, your forehead, your cheeks (which was not freezing anymore) and lastly your lips again. He felt like they belonged there, fitting perfectly with yours.

A sudden banging noise can be heard from outside the booth, “Hurry up, then!” you didn’t even realise you have been in there for quite a while.

“Sorry!” you yelled out, quickly grabbing your things and exiting, Trent’s hand bringing you outside. with giggles pouring out of your guys’ lips.

The other pair went inside the booth, shaking their heads and mumbling something under their breath. But you didn’t pay attention, you were all too enamoured by your boyfriend and his previous bold action.

Now, it was your turn to stare at him, taking in his features.

As you both wait for the picture to develop, your arms went around Trent’s waist, his moved to your hips. You were no longer cold, warmth filling your heart along with the tips of your lips as the traces of your boyfriend lingered.

Captured memories to keep forever.
