I attended the Cherry Blossom Picnic (Hanami) today. It was pretty neat. It was in the DAC from 11:30 to 1:30. It turns out that a hanami (or "flower viewing festival," I think) is essentially Japanese Easter: the spring celebration of life and rebirth that coincides with the blossoming of the cherry trees (which I imagine makes it kind of hard to schedule for ahead of time).
Anyway, I got to brag about my poetry a little bit to a Commuter reporter who was there, so I expect there will probably be an article about the event in next week's paper. Whether or not said article will feature any reference to me must, alas, remain to be seen.
