Part of My Past - Daphne Loves Derby
I hope you know that you were my best friend Thanks for the best time of my life. I’m hoping that I will hear from you soon Thank you for everything Come home, now that you’re gone I’ve finally realized That you were the best Come home, I won’t forget the times that we had So please don’t be a part of my past
The End of Everything I've Loved - Daphne Loves...
But I’ve seen this all before. Things shouldn’t have gone this far. We shouldn’t have gotten so close. But what made me believe? It was you who made me forget all I’ve known Every time I looked into your eyes And it was me who decided to give up my heart and run away. Today is gone, tomorrow’s mine, but I’m still alone x5. Im still alone without you.

Midnight Highway - by Daphne Loves Derby
Your bitter goodbye is ringing through this quiet night, This idle hour just wont pass I’ve never missed you this much, never thought I would, Didn’t think you’d feel so far away And your summer perfume is still blowing through this hallway, Autumn’s amber red shadows dance I miss our midnight rides on highway 18, 18 is gone
And so go past the lights and all the excuses...
Daphne Loves Derby Week
Because this week sucks so hard, I’ve decided that this week will be Daphne Loves Derby week, where I spend each day posting up random emo lyrics by Daphne Loves Derby. I’ve written about this band before. They’re an emo band from Kent, Washington, headed by Korean American frontman, Kenny Choi. No wonder they’re such a woose band. Asians love being sensitively emo and...
Hong Kong…the place where dreams come to live and die.

When am I coming back to NY
The Binghamton DSP class of 2005/6 was here in Hong Kong this past month. haha…It was good to see everyone. It felt like I was back in NY, hanging out with the gang.
It was a little sad to see them go and say goodbye. Even Stan went back to NY. But as everyone was leaving, the number one question I got was, “So when are you coming back to NY?” I promptly responded, “not...

Love, Faith, God, Commitment, part 5
Me: It’s like friendship. What made you have faith in our friendship?
Connie: Friendship is different. Well, it’s not different but friends you can have many
Me: Friendship is just a different degree. It’s still love. And really close friends are far and few in between. You can’t have many of those.
Connie: lovers, i only believe there should be one so there’s a lot of pressure. With...

Love, Faith, God, Commitment, part 4
C: but just like love can blind you, so can doubt.
Me: I wouldn’t say that love will blind you. I think infatuation blinds you. Love makes things a bit more clear and brings you closer to the truth. Infatuation is a fleeting thought. Love is grounded. Doubt is infatuation’s complement. Trust me, when you’re in love, there is no doubt.
It’s like friendship. What made you have faith in our...

Love, Faith, God, Commitment, part 3
C: Well God to you, would never let you down. But love can go to sh-ts
Me: No. You can fall out of faith, just as you can fall out of love. But ultimately, where you place your faith is the choice that you have to make.
C: I feel like a commitment phobe. Even if something is going good, I knit pick at things so that I won’t have to have faith in it…because i’m scared it [the relationship]...

Love, Faith, God, Commitment, part 2
C: where do you draw the line of giving your all and just being a fool?
Me: Love is irrational. Love, for all intents and purposes, is completely and utterly irrational and stupid. To fall in love and to feel love is foolish. But you would be a fool to not find true love
Some people would die for the person that they love. It seems counter intuitive to life and survival to do so. I mean, is...

C: how you were able to stand by her even though it bothered you so much
Me: sometimes no matter how bad things get, it’s worth it in the end. It’s like faith and God. Sometimes no matter how much life sucks and how much you want to curse God, faith in Him is worth it because you know that it will somehow work out in the end, or at least have faith that it will
C: where do you draw...
