Tulips


Tulips are my favorite flowers and there are a bunch of them blooming around the campus. This shot was taken in the law school lawn looking towards the architecture building.

Keeping Track of What I Eat


So I was working on Capitol Hill today and instead of paying for overpriced disgusting cafeteria food in the Longworth Cafeteria, I decided to order take-out Thai food from my favorite restaurant across the street from the Capitol South Metro entrance. It was such a great idea! For eight dollars I got a coke, chicken with ginger, and white rice. I had so much food that I even shared with my co-worker. It was very cheap in comparison to what I would get on the Hill: ten dollars for a drink, cookie, and a wrap.

Cherry Blossoms


Here's a picture of the Cherry Blossoms that I found on the grounds of the Capitol. I was giving a tour and we ended up going outside for a bit before heading inside.

Stalker-ish


So I just didn't know exactly what to take a photo of, so I decided to take a candid photo of someone sitting nearby McMahon Hall. He didn't know I took his picture and hopefully he won't ever find out! Ha!

Presidential Motorcade







So I know this may not be one of the greatest shots I have ever taken; however, I have to admit I was caught off guard when I was walking the streets of Washington, DC when I ran into the presidential motorcade. I stood there on the corner of a street with a throng of people and we all had our cameras out. As the motorcade came closer, I could see the President was waving to us through his tinted bulletproof windows. I was so shell-shocked that I even forgot to press the shutter button. It was quite an exciting moment!

Hey There!

I tried to have all of my favorite elements included in this photo: cherry blossoms, water, and my boyfriend. This was taken on Sunday evening before the Sun was setting and I loved how I was able to get the photo at an angle and how I tried to have the cherry blossoms out of focus to show how important these elements mean to me.
