Blog: Ming Yieh's Gay Parade

Friday night I'm going nowhere All the lights are changing green to red Turning over TV stations Situations running through my head Well looking back through time You know it's clear that I've been blind I've been a fool To ever open up my heart To all that jealousy, that bitterness, that ridicule Saturday I'm running wild And all the lights are changing red to green Moving through the crowd I'm pushing Chemicals all rushing through my bloodstream Only wish that you were here You know I'm seeing it so clear I've [...]

Last night's phrases Sick with lack of basis Are still writhing on my floor and When the pawn hits the conflicts he thinks like a king What he knows throws the blows when he goes to the fight And he'll win the whole thing before he enters the ring There's no body to batter when your [...]

tell me lies, tell me sweet little lies, oh no you can't disguise... the weather has been excruciatingly excellent, so excellent I can't seem to take a stab at studio or my final term paper. things at school have been questionable, and it's unreasonable to some degree, but it's true that I don't feel as if I'm going out with a bang..an explosion..or even a feeling of success. maybe because graduation is anti-climatic anyway because I don't have a plan for anything...so the end of school seems less than pleasant. at the same time, [...]

The sleeping aid I'm taking is taking a toll on my dreams, as they seem to get more and more bizarre, although with the one this morning I am pretty sure Fitzgerald is finding his way in somehow. Yesterday: a Hello Kitty parade in Japan. It seems my family has gone off to vacation there. There's a murder, because we're all sitting in the tatami room and I look out the window and there is a police car. I'm scared because, it seems, someone has committed a murder. This morning: I'm having trouble sleeping (?), and [...]

trouble, trouble move away i have seen your face and it's too much for me today.

there are times that walk from you like some passing afternoon summer warmed the open window of her honeymoon and she chose a yard to burn but the ground remembers her wooden spoons, her children stir her bougainvillea blooms there are things that drift away like our endless, numbered days autumn blew the quilt right off the perfect bed she made and she's chosen to believe in the hymns her mother sings sunday pulls its children from their piles of fallen leaves [...]

Boo!

Whatever I have said or left unsaid Whatever I have done or left undone,-- Tell me. Tell me the truth . . . Are you afraid? Do you think that Love was ever fed with lies But hunger lived thereafter in his eyes? Do you ask me to take moonlight for the sun? The Woman And the Wife, e.a. robinson

You and me we're at the goldfish pond and I, I was tagging along for the ride all the big mouthed fish really made us laugh and while I stood still I felt a chill I thought that maybe you did too I wanted to feel that way forever And that's why If you're looking at me I'll try to be what you want to see and if I'm, if I'm, ever that lucky You won't have to be so, You won't have to be so sad You won't have to be so sad. Last night I was trying to [...]

I miss this! who wouldn't. slow day. I just have this thought..that is going somewhat like...TELL ME WHAT TO DO TELL ME WHAT TO DO TELL ME WHAT TO DO. Because I don't know what to do. About anything. It's like this thing...where there's too many open doors, and then you get stuck thinking about all the possibilities but no solutions and I'm afraid of a lot of things, like big dogs and being a senior and the psychology exam in 2 weeks and all my friends being haters. dunno. dunno. dunno. something like when you close your [...]

Blagh. Last night I dreamt that I was wearing my new shoes from bloomingdale's and they were ruined then I looked at my friend's shoes and she said "this happens to kate spades all the time." fin. qu-est-ce que tu pense?

( on our way to Chartres, France) "always the mysterious one with dark eyes and careless hair, fashionably sensitive and too cool to care. you stood in my doorway with nothin' to say besides some comment on the weather. well in case you failed to notice, in case you failed you see, this is my HEART THIS ME DOWN ON MY KNEES..." It's been kind of a Jewel-ed 2 weeks. The other day me Deren and Brian were discussing her songs, and I remember banging this out on [...]

Jie on a dock in Chicago. The summer has been strange, but I have to say 2008 has been the strangest year..nothing really seemed to happen. Even China thinks it's been a bad year (for obvious reasons...) or maybe things did happen, and nobody really cared. Oops. Dream: My mother, me, and my sisters are traveling. We are in our old car, the one we had when I was in middle school. We are going driving around Pittsburgh, except it doesn't look anything like the Pittsburgh I know (of). There are floods [...]

( view somewhere in between villages in Cinque Terre, Italy) Dream: Involving rollercoasters, some kind of amusement park, and someone wearing Morgan's shirt which has been sitting in the kitchen. Starting to have trouble remembering these, a deterrent to my grand scheme of making Dali-esque paintings about my amazing dreams. Melting clocks and all. Today marks the 2nd day of my 2nd week in America. Running out of excuses as to why I am still unemployed.

These are things, at the faintest, that I can remember of my summers in Taiwan at the age of 6 or 7. We are spending the day with my aunt, who is married to my father's brother. I remember an apartment building where we eat a sweet gelatin drink that has a lemon flavor. My cousin and I buy matching Felix the Cat swimsuits. At the beach, we have to wear swimming caps. I only remember this because of photographs. Later, auntie takes us to her family's house, where the grass is very green and we eat tapioca pearls. In [...]

This morning over breakfast, listened to the Cranberries greatest hits. Had a dream, can't remember it. This blows, considering one of my summer goals is to not only find a job, but also to record my dreams everysingleday. I believe that my dreams are channeling secret meanings of life, or my personal fears (such as destroying a commune of well-meaning hippies by letting it rot to disease and debris - yes, it's true) I was born on March 9, a day which celebrates the creation of Barbie in 1959 and the birth of American rapper Bow Wow [...]

Dream: We are going on an amusement park ride. It is the choice between the log fumes and the rocket ship that is like the log ride, but in space sans water. We get in line for the logs, but realize we are actually going to the space ride (rocket ship) instead. The line is not as long, but we have to keep going up escalators, and I wonder when we will actually get to the ride. I'm with fragments of my family and someone else's family. I offer to carry their stroller with the baby in it [...]

the grocery store is so big! i kind of miss paris, but missed pittsburgh even more. must find job.

( super cute mailboxes, stockholm sweden on gamla stan) (the prettiest bicycle chain cover. stockholm, sweden) dream: i'm on my first day of school, and on mondays i only have chinese class. so i'm getting tutored by this guy, and 10 minutes into a montage, i'm about to get tutoring from him and i realize "he likes me! but he has a girlfriend, but he likes me!" and "he's been tutoring me [...]
