Impressions of the Custom's House

July 19, 2012 Posted by: Qaisera

Today we went to use the computer lab in this big fancy building.  We took the elevator up to the third floor, which only took like 5 seconds.  The architecture was beautiful.  In the middle of the building, if you look up you can see this glass-looking dome thing.

    I like that you looked up. So often we forget to take in our surroundings. Remember that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

    I always feel like I should be quiet in grand buildings like the Custom's House. Why is that?
