Multicultural Weekend @ BU

I really don't have much to say. Not because I didn't have a good time - that would be a LIE. Honestly, this was such a great experience. I was amazed. Boston is such a great city (contrary to popular belief). About the campus and the school itself? I can't find the word to describe it. It's so warm and welcoming, I felt so at home. I could be walking with my host down the street towards the GSU or CAS or Warren Towers (where hopefully I'll be staying) and have people greet my host, or myself even. What did it for me was buying my hoodie(s). There's nothing else to say. It was great from beginning to end. See you in the fall.

Boston University Class of 2013

Moving forward..

Next week from 4/16 to 4/18 I'm going to Boston for the first time in my life! I'm vising my new school - BU - for the Multicultural Blablaablaaahh Weekend. You don't even know how excited I am! Once I get all the paraphernalia that means it's like official. And I knooow my dad's going to be buying all kinds of stuff. I hope to meet sooo many new people. I don't even know if I remember what it's like to meet new people like randomly. It can only be positive right? Maybe I'll be able to meet up with some people I know. If not then OH well better for me so I can have a fresh start off the bat.

Current status: In a state of euphoria! Nervous + Excited + Happy
Song stuck in my head: I don't know what she sees in me. But I'm happy that she's happy now, that she's with me and I'm freakin' out, because I'm just so lucky. She's everything I ask for, and so much more.. :)

Martin Luther King, Jr. (January 15, 1929 – April 4, 1968)

I'd just like to take a moment and acknowledge the efforts of one man who saw a future for this country of opportunity way before anyone else believed the same. Dr. King was a prophet for Black Americans in a country that boasted about an equality that his group of followers had never gotten to experience, but hoped to attain. In his final speech before his death, King said to his people, "What would happen to me from some of our sick white brothers? Well, I don't know what will happen now. We've got some difficult days ahead. But it doesn't matter with me now. Because I've been to the mountaintop. And I don't mind. Like anybody, I would like to live a long life. Longevity has its place. But I'm not concerned about that now. I just want to do God's will. And He's allowed me to go up to the mountain. And I've looked over. And I've seen the promised land. I may not get there with you. But I want you to know tonight, that we, as a people, will get to the promised land. So I'm happy, tonight. I'm not worried about anything. I'm not fearing any man. Mine eyes have seen the glory of the coming of the Lord." As we move forward as a nation and as a people, we notice more and more that the 'melting pot' that describes our country becomes more and more like a 'salad bowl.' But it is very important and also it was Martin's Dream that all our nation's parts of the 'salad' come together truly as One Nation, Under God, Indivisible, with Liberty and Justice for all.
