Poke. (1)

you know what day it is,
0419 - 0420,
And I'm counting the stars, cause I wanna know how far you are.
This holiday is so damn illegal.

Spring in new york,
A pink sunset tonight...
finally joined the club.

I've got that summertime, summertime sadness,
Build a man a fire, and he's warm for a night. 
Set a man on fire, and he's warm forever.
that smolder look.

Caught with her hand in the Nutella jar,
Got tipsy after two flutes of champagne today. 
I failed so hard I won.
That's why I'm here.

Tales of An Unaffordable Capital

Live well die young

the nightmares of stepping on stage and suddenly being obese have begun

Crying again

ughhhhhh

Wedding can wait. Dessert can’t

Forgot how much I appreciated this hallway until a revisit today... Really should start coming here more. The fastest way to get away from the present is to visit the old. 

Summer here we come

New & improved

Aggregating.....slowly

the nightmares of stepping on stage and suddenly being obese have begun

You can't control how people act, only how you react. So don't get upset over the things you can't control.

Beauty in Translation.

If flowers from branches left.

I, if you open a branch from the same Lotus 

If there is no meeting of the purity of the soil and yellow leaves 

I hate you do not know,

 the new spring in the heart of flowering cherry. 

Unwilling to become dead tree 

by bending in vain to maintain the space of wasted youth 

If the red flowers smell fragrant 

where red chicken is headed to shoulder the burden and all, 

does not exist 

I hope the shadow of my soul 

is willing to give you your heart, you know? 

I feel warm and cold,

 it have became in the spring of my world while yours is winter.

花若離枝隨蓮去　擱開已經無同時

葉若落土隨黃去　擱發已經無同位

恨你不知阮心意　為著新櫻等春天

不願青春空枉費　白白屈守變枯枝

紅花無香味　香花亦無紅豔時　一肩擔雞雙頭啼

望你知影阮心意　願將魂魄交給你

世間冷暖情為貴　寒冬亦會變春天

If the flowers from opening branches Suilian to put the same time has no 

If the soil with yellow leaves to put off the hair has no parity 

Nguyen hate you do not know the mind of the new spring cherry etc. 

Unwilling to bend in vain to keep youth wasted space becomes deadwood 

When no smell fragrant saffron nor Hongyan shoulder all the burdens of chicken-headed crow 

Hope you know shadow Nguyen soul willing to give your mind 

Winter cold and warm affection for your world has become in the spring

如果從開設分行隨蓮把同時花無 

如果黃葉土壤摘去頭髮無奇偶校驗 

阮恨你不知道的新的春天櫻花等的心 

不願白白地彎曲，以保持青春浪費的空間變得朽木 

當沒有氣味香濃藏紅花，也不紅岩肩膀雞鴉為首的全部負擔 

希望你知道影子阮靈魂願意給你的心 

冬天的寒冷和溫暖的感情，你的世界已經成為彈簧

If you open a branch from the same time with the lotus flower without 

If the yellow leaves soil pluck hair and no parity 

Nguyen hate you do not know the heart of a new springtime cherry blossoms, etc. 

Unwilling to bend in vain to keep the youth wasted space becomes deadwood 

When there is no smell fragrant saffron, nor Hongyan shoulder the full burden of chicken crow headed 

I hope you know that shadow Nguyen soul willing to give your heart 

Winter cold and warm feelings, your world has become a spring

如果從同時打開一個分支，蓮花無 

如果黃葉土壤採摘的頭髮，無奇偶校驗 

阮恨你不知道的新的春天櫻花盛開的心臟等 

不願白白地彎曲，以保持青春浪費的空間變得朽木 

當沒有氣味香濃藏紅花，也不紅岩肩膀雞鴉的全部負擔為首 

我希望你知道，影子阮靈魂願意給你的心臟 

冬天的寒冷和溫暖的感覺，你的世界已經成為一個春天

如果從同時打開一個分枝無蓮花

如果黃葉土壤採摘的頭髮無奇偶相遇

阮恨你不知道的新的春天櫻花盛開的心臟 

不願白白地彎曲，以保持青春浪費的空間變得朽木 

當沒有氣味香濃豔紅花，紅岩肩膀雞鴉的全部為首來負擔

我希望你知道，我靈魂的影子願意給你的心臟 

冬天的寒冷和溫暖的感覺，你的世界已經成為一個春天

If I open a branch from the same Lotus 

If the soil picking hair yellow leaves no parity encounter 

I hate you do not know the new spring cherry blossom heart 

Unwilling to bend in vain to keep the youth wasted space becomes deadwood 

When there is no smell fragrant red flowers, all of Red Rock chicken crow headed to shoulder the burden 

I hope you know, the shadow of my soul willing to give your heart 

Winter cold and warm feeling, your world has become a spring

If I open a branch from the same Lotus 

If the soil with yellow leaves have no purity encounter 

I hate you do not know the new spring with a cherry blossoming heart 

Unwilling to bend in vain to keep the youth wasted space becomes deadwood 

When there is the no smell fragrant red flowers, all of Red chicken headed to shoulder the burden 

I hope you know, the shadow of my soul willing to give you your heart 

Winter cold and warm feeling, your world has became my spring

私は、同じロータスから支店を開いた場合 

黄色の葉と土には純度の出会いがない場合 

私はあなたが桜の開花の心で新しい春を知らない嫌い 

若者無駄なスペースを維持するために無駄に曲げて不本意では枯れ木になる 

赤鶏がすべて重荷を肩に向かった臭い香りの赤い花が、存在しない場合には 

私はあなたの心を与えるために私の魂の影が喜んで、あなたが知っている願っています 

冬は寒さと暖かい感じ、あなたの世界は私の春になっています

Night Moves by Stephanie Barber?

To me, It is interesting to see youtube comments out of place. On a book? That is a very different experience. I think to choose this piece music piece to work on is a good choice. It has some history, definitely came before youtube but it also has a good stream of supporters. You see emotion pour out on youtube about the past, about what people have been through. You see how music from the past is compared with music today. You see how this piece have its existence today, within games, pop culture. I remember hearing it in the TV show "how I met your mother" I would not have known this song as a foreigner in the states if not for the TV show. But you see the tracks it leaves through out history. Through the thirty plus years it existed. The impact it has on music, culture and people's life. It also captures the nature of us human beings. We like to compare, we debate who is the better musician and many of us, seem to like old things more than the new. You might also question, Hmmm, Who is the author here? Is it the one who made the song? Bob segar? or is it the one who uploaded the video? or is it "Jimmej955" who uploaded the video? Or is it Stephanie Barber who did the filtering? So manny people and things are involved in order for this work to exist.

Distant?

Why? Do we remember?

Why? Do we remember?

What is at stake?
What is lost?

Remember?
remember the blood we shed.
remember the bloody stream of history bleed.
remember the price we paid.

Why are we here, again.
Why are we shedding blood again.
Why are we withstanding history again.
Why are we paying the price again.

Is this wrong?
The occupation.
We need it.
Do we?
Call for it,
We need it.

What box?
A black box.
A box of feed,
for the communist beast.

Trade, what trade?
No, there is no trade.
There is no give and take.
There is give, and only give.
Just give.
Give, give,give.
That is how you sell a nation.

Unity?
Unity of the people?
What people?
What are we?
Do we know?
What's we?

Give us transparency.
Give us tranquility.
Give us honesty.

This is a poetic response to what is going on in taiwan. It all started on March 17th 2014 when a trade act was passed within 30 seconds. Within the next 26 hours, students gathered. They occupied  the legislative Yuan as a form of protest. A response and act against the process how the act is passed, it was not transparent nor was it righteous. They are also worried of the impact that it would bring to Taiwan. Most importantly, the Trade act is signed between Taiwan and Communist China, we are two countries with great disagreements on Taiwan's identity. We have also seen what China have done to people that did not follow their wishes. How would we be able to know, we are safe?
