If you read only one essay about China this month, let it be this one.
About qing.qing: born in China and moved to the US at age nine, bilingual, bicultural, bitexual, doubly confused and wishes she were more easily amused, she's given the same schpeel to strangers who turn into acquaintances who turn into lovers who remain strangers who in turn become friends... so and so, so and so on.
Having finally just graduated, qing.qing spans across seas from New York to Beijing, watching and waiting for her world of colors to collide.
qing.qing has contributed or worked for Theme Magazine, Time Out Beijing, Marie Claire China, M theNewYorkArtWorld, the Get It Louder exhibition, the Asian American Writers' Workshop, various documentary / film and artist shows, and just came out of a workshop at the New York State Summer Writers' Institute ready to KUNGFU PANDA HUSTLE. Her choice of career as a writer, "media person" with a beat on China scares her parents. she prays for the best while eating whole fish!
Status: This is my CHINA blog. I am currently in Brooklyn, New York City as of 10.01.08. As such, updates have slimmed.
