Serenity

In the last few days I've rediscovered the joys of star-gazing, of just looking up in to the huge sky and feeling the peace of knowing that I'm so small, the universe is so big, that it's just gonna keep on turning and everything's going to be alright.

I used to love stargazing when I was in my teens, when I was going through all that hormonal rollercoaster stuff, it was strangely calming. I hadn't done it for years, but the other night I laid out in the grass and it was like finding a long lost friend, it still hasn't lost its magic.

I want to do that again, too. Maybe now that summer is nearly here. Tomorrow we have our sakura party. Wish you were here.

Ohhhh....Sakura! I so wish I was there too. When I tell people I'm from Japan a lot of people tell me that they want to visit and I always tell them to go during Sakura season. It's like the time that brings out the best....and the worst.....of Japanese beauty and culture. Plus it's heaps of fun.

Yeah, the other day I went out and it was so bloody crowded. I wanted to take pics of the scenery, but as beautiful as it was, it was all so unoriginal. Instead I used my nice zoom lens to try to get snaps of the hanami revelers. I managed a few shifty glances in my direction and even a couple pics of smiling Japanese. A nice thing to capture. Still wishing you were here, Jo.
