An Ode to my love

I am the sun, I am the shadow that is screaming to the air…
I am the fallen angel, the one who fell in love with you…
You shut your mouth and then you can perhaps say…
It seems I like doing the things the wrong way…
Incomplete as it may seem, I have nothing more to say…
I go about looking for things, I know are not there…
I am the sun, I search my own shadow…
I am a shadow yet I look for my own halo…
In the end I give up, I go home…
How can you say, I do the things the wrong way…
Everything is just the way it should be… Why am I still hungry, still like water…
You shut your eyes and then you can perhaps see…
How it feels to know that you can never be free…
The music will die out soon, the winds will become still…
The mist will clear someday, the rains will cease…
Even then, the water shall flow…
Not within me, I am too cold, I will freeze it all…
Maybe it will flow along with time, without me…
..... ...
Why, I wonder can I not take it along with, me....

My lovely rebel

Walking on the pebbled path, she looks back once...
Looks back again, she smirks, she smiles,never cries...
Leaving a thunderstorm in her wake, she walks on...
A little jump, a small hop, a tiny skip and she turns...


She picks her fights, her moments, her glories...
Forgiving always, when I err, she cares for all...
Laughing out loud, she banishes the blues...
Stutters sometimes, mumbles to herself, for all she cares...


Words of wisdom she spills often, I just smile then...
Sometimes she plays, sometimes she seems broken...
Not yet a complete woman, a kid at times...
"whateva" she almost always chimes...


Have never set sights on her...
Dont know if I ever will...

Happy Birthday Love!

Click Here To Listen
Lily Lau, let me tell you all the ways how that
I’m in love with you

We met one day in Seward Park, your beauty illuminating everything, leaving nothing dark.
I knew that time and day, that I would have to find a way, for you to love me back.

Married in 2004, Kauai HI had never seen a love like that before
A love like ours only exist in black and white movies, We’re truthful, and you can see right through me, and how my heart beats faster for you

Lily Lau, let me tell you all the ways how
I’m in love with you

5 Years

That's how long we've been married. I still remember that fateful day. Most other days of the year are unexceptional. Most days begin and they end with no persisting memories made in between. And sadly, most days had no impact in the course of my life ... until May 31, 1998. It happened to be Memorial Day - coincidence or fate? And like most days, I would normally be actively engaged playing softball with friends. Not this day. I was idly sitting in Seward Park thanks to my torn ACL. That's when I saw her and the rest as they say is history.

YEE FAMILY TREE


This is the first endeavor to draw out the Yee family tree. It is based on a few family member’s genealogical recollection from letters, photos and mostly memories.

Unfortunately, the Yee family is not a close family and a multitude of documents such as family records from China, immigration records, historical newspapers, birth and death records, family recollections, and many more sources from other members of the family is not accounted for. As such, this by no means is the end of the family tree research but should act as a starting point without the benefits of other essential family member’s input.

Historic Collapse and Historic Change


Historic Collapse = Mets is the first team to ever own a seven-game lead with 17 games to play and not win the division or league.
Historic Change = Shaved my head.
Reason: Well, I've tried everything from worshiping the Baseball Gods, to sitting in one spot on games when the Mets win and now shaving my head (the last time the Mets did that, they went on a big winning streak) but nothing stopped their free fall. My only consolation is that its over now and so is the pain.
