in transition.

there are tons of pictures to be showcased here. spring break was a great experience. coupled with tons of photos which i can't possibly upload everything here. so you'll only see a selected few photos, some of which have impacted me in a big way. some of which tell a beautiful story. that's the aspiring photojournalist in me. hurhur.

meanwhile, for some contemplative thoughts while i settle my subjects for spring quarter and stand in awe of spring's arrival.

while viewing the exhibits in the White House visitors' center in Washington DC, i saw something that literally made me stop in my tracks and ponder.

one of america's great presidents, John F. Kennedy said,

"We are not afraid to entrust the American people
with unpleasant facts, foreign ideas, alien philosophies...
for a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market
is a nation that is afraid of its people."

so this is america's stand. on the other end of the spectrum, is singapore. so maybe the government is really, indirectly, afraid of us.
