My second poem

-
Why oil and water do not go together
Why peach and love are compatible

go go stop stop
before I faint of lonely happiness

I see the light
and once again,
I blow it out

before the fire consumes me
it is insatiable

Hello cupcakes! The weather is beautiful today! I have been inactive lately, but nonetheless I will share the pictures of delicious food I ate. I went to Washington D.C. and Annandale, Virginia. Some food are from fancy catering companies and others are from restaurants. This is coffee-flavored and strawberry shaved ice with sweet toppings. I loved it! You can buy this at the "Block" located in  4221 John Marr Dr, Annandale, VA 22003 Next I went to a Korean BBQ restaurant. It's called Kogiya Korean BBQ located in 4220-A Annandale Rd, Annandale, VA 22003 I loved the food and the sauces. The Korean restaurant gave a wide variety of choices and plenty of food for a group of 6 persons! There were a lot of leftovers afterwards, but sadly we were not allowed to bring them home.  I will write about food I tasted in Washington D.C. in the next post!

Thus she started interviewing Mary's friends who attended the same school for girls in Taiwan. From there, Leslie learned many perspectives from getting to know them and why her mother is determined to work dedicatedly for her family. I especially enjoyed the chapter where Leslie, her boyfriend, and her mother went to China to go sightseeing b...

Hello everyone! I enjoy taking pictures of the little things that make me happy. All photos belong to me and are taken from my iPhone 6s. This picture is in Federal Triangle, Washington D.C. I enjoyed the lights that remind me of dimmed stars and the night sky seemed brooding. This is lovely to look at. Even though the flowers are artificial, I felt like the flowers are falling onto me.   I love this photo. The ducks seemed to be at ease and the simple colors truly reflect the summer vibes. The shadows make a nice touch.   I like the colorful glass balls hanging in the ceiling.
