Cheer up. Things could always be worse.

The weather lately has been gray, but I think we often forget how lucky we are to live in a city like DC. You're surrounded by monuments and museums. There is always some cool or interesting event to join in this city. And you can meet cool people if you keep an open mind and just be open to being friendly.

And if that's not good enough for you, DC gets really colorful when the cherry blossoms bloom!
