i'm writing a reflective essay on the inauguration for a class and i realized the images of yesterday are what stick out in my mind. and if i could have taken a picture yesterday (instead of [insert historical photograph here]) this would be it.

the capitol building just looks beautiful and majestic here. i realized how little worth i give to the gems of architecture and history we have in this country because of my obsession with more historical art. but i want to visit d.c. so badly now. i have an itch to appreciate the monuments, memorials and art america has to offer.
