spring
The weather simply cannot make up its mind, it teased the Simmons students onto the Quad to sunbathe (and burn), and then decided to pour down rain and whip up a cold wind. Now it seems to have settled onto a nice warm weather, distracting the exam studying lot into finding excuses of going outside, and making me put my winter clothes into a suitcase, which is about to be taken off to one of my friend’s houses to sit in her basement for the summer. The Red Sox have been causing a lot of excitement lately, as they opened the season with planes and helicopters flying overhead, whilst the Simmons students eagerly entered raffles to win tickets to the games. Now slowly every room is emptying, and all the walls are becoming bare, and stripped of memories, as people pack away for the summer, others need massage sessions due to the amount of stress that seems to be building up, not as an individual’s phenomenon, but one of a community. Chemistry, Psychology, Spanish, girls are pouring over their slide shows and text books cramming every piece of information they can into their heads. Once the exams are over they might just explode from disbelief. Overall, a semester that passed incredibly fast, it was full of adventures for everyone. For me, I went off on more exploration trips of Boston, finding nice spots for walks by the river, and getting a feel of Italy in Boston, when going to the North end. I was pulled into Lulu’s by one of my friend’s, and saw so many muffins, in every colour of the rainbow, now.. that must be every child’s dream, but for someone who grew up with everything looking natural, I had to wonder how many flood colouring things they put in there. In the end I bought a mango cheesecake, which had a peculiar, but pleasing taste.
For some lucky people finals have already been done in class, and art projects have already been handed in, so they find themselves with a lot of time on their hands.. Moi! Thus turning to things that should have been done a while ago, but the time just seemed to slip away incredibly fast, and without realizing, something that was planned to be done a month ago, was still not done… so here I am writing my blog. Enjoying the words and thoughts, and wondering, how did I not have the time?
For today, Chau, speak to you soon!
