Isn't it funny how everything works out in the end?

So many things have happened to me these past couple weeks. I've had some pretty outrageous, crazy, or plain ridiculous moments, days, or even week. In general, I find myself in these silly situations that may appear absurd or impossible to many, but become quite real to me that I eventually learn to laugh with (not at) myself, if that makes any sense at all; and to realize, as cliche as it may sound, that it's all how I look at it. At the end, everything works out--all the pieces come together.

I mentioned in a very early post about how I've become more mellow over the years, how I think "oh well" to whatever circumstance I come across. Yes, partly it stems from apathy as I've grown more jaded towards a lot of issues that might have mattered more to me at one point in my life, or from disappointment towards certain aspects of reality that makes me think, ignorance is indeed bliss. The other part of this "oh well" attitude is because I have faith that everything will work out, or to say the least, appear to make more sense. And so it's funny when those around me might obsess over something pertaining to me that I might not even obsess or worry about at all. Like a friend once said, what's the point of worrying? Truth. Because, tomorrow will worry for itself. Nonetheless, I'm still happy and grateful every single time something works out.

flowers, flowers..and more flowers?


I don't really appreciate flowers (with the exception of tulips), and I definitely don't understand trees. Nonetheless, that's what my weekend was filled with. I went to the annual cherry blossom festival in DC, which was super crowded and fun. Lots of Japanese musical performances, street fair foods, crazy anime people (no offense if you identify with one). I had to take the picture above of the girl dressed up as an anime girl. I took a boat ride of the Potomac River, and ended up sunburnt.

Tulips! My favorite, although I couldn't find purple tulips, my favorite of them all.

The picture of the cacti above cracks me up because they look like soft churro! It made me crave some...yum.

The cutest chow-chow ever.

Cherry blossoms!

Takes too long to upload, so tis all for now.

Spring!


Spring is finally here! Well, it's been here for a few days I think? It's crazy because I'm not used to having seasons. Here in Virginia, the seasons aren't even super extreme like it may be in upper Northeast. Anyways, this is a picture of the tree on front of my house. It was just bare branches during the winter, but now it's blooming pink flowers. At first, I thought they were pink leaves that were budding, because little red buds were the only thing growing out. More spring pictures to come from the cherry blossom festival in DC this weekend!
