While it Lasts

Love in the moment

Revel in the moment

Appreciate the moment

You cannot make it last forever, but you can seize and hang onto that moment for as long as possible

That slow dance brings a wave of nostalgia, and a bittersweet mix of euphoria and sadness

Like Gravity, something always brings me back to you

I do not regret that moment—

Better to have it in my memories than not at all

However that moment has passed

Now Set me Free, Leave me Be

Taiwan

A land full of rich Asian culture.

One might ask, “What is all the allure?”

Well I am no expert, but let me tell you

The present is a mix of the old and new

閩南語, 拜拜ing with incense, tea brewing,

7-Elevens, night markets, 小吃s, and 芒果冰

The sun and moon lake, 蔥油餅, bubble tea

鼎泰豐, fancy clubs, 滑蛋, Taipei 101, and KTV

I still have much to learn and explore

Subway, high speed rail, bike, and more

I felt like I could travel everywhere!

My memory and nostalgia are too much to share

I spent time with family and ate exotic fruits

And met many friends who shared the same roots

Remembering this often brings tears to my eyes

Because of the jolt back into reality, I surmise

Taiwan Tech Trek was an experience of a lifetime

Formosa, I will never forget the summer I spent with you

On a Cloud

Have you ever been on a cloud?

When your to-do list is all checked off

And academics are decent, and you are a social butterfly

All is well…no, all is better than “well”

Everything you do just seems to lift you up higher

You feel like a princess

You feel like a fighter

You feel like you can do anything

But beware, that cloud is unstable

I let the fog cloud my vision

Floating higher and higher as my ego grew

In a blink of an eye, I came crashing down

The Cloud has dissapated
