When in Boston...

Well I slept from like... 2:30am to 4:30am. Well let me back up. Millie finally did come in at like 12:49 or something. My dad was scared that he wasn't gonna be able to take a nap and be able to drove me to Boston. And he almost wasn't. At 1:30/2am we got home with Millie and she ate and right then and there I went to sleep because I knew that my dad would need me to help drive. So I went to sleep. Yummmm. At four thirty my dad woke us up, I got ready real quick and we left. I bought my dad a full tank of gas and we were outttt. We made a few stops along the way at rest stops and my stomach was killing me like crazy for some odd reason. I found out later that I had gotten my period. So we got to Boston at like 10am and that was super late but I was able to meet up with my group and finally eat lunch with them or whatever. I didn't meet anyone particularly. I must say. This orientation was pretty awkward. No one wanted to talk to anyone. Or maybe it was just me lol. I mean.. It was all small talk. And small talk doesn't get anyone anywhere. So I talked to some people but I didn't meet anyone to the point where i'm going to have like facebook friend requests. But nonetheless I had fun. You know? Make the best of things. And yesterday after lunch we started looking through like eleventeen million booklets and stuff to see what classes we wanted to take out of the ones that were not already filled. And we made a rough copy of these for us to use today. Also!! As i was walking around to all the workshops that they were hosting for us, it started POURING. Omfg. I was soooooooo soaked. It was ridiculous. I had to buy a new teeshirt.  So today I woke up took a shower because I reeeally needed one. (I hadn't showered since wednesday morning!! Shhh). And then I was off to starbucks lol. Omgsh. I had never tried an iced coffee before and I usually like my coffee hot but it was such a hot day so I decided to be bold and try a traditional iced coffee. Ehh. It was alright. I didn't like it when the ice started to melt. So I drank like half of it and it was enjoyable and the other half was forcing it. Then I bought a vitamin water (power-C) and had that before I met up with my group for us to get to the GSU and formally register for classes. I must say we did all the hard work already yesterday afternoon so today wasn't so bad. We registered and then we walked back to get our official Boston University IDs. Lol. They're okay. I mean it coulda been worse you know?? But it wasn't. Can't complain. After final ceremonies we just left. Everyone went their own way. I got on the T and I had money to pay but I didn't know you had to get on at the front of the train so you can pay the fare. So I get off and I leave the station and my friend later tells me that I stole a ride lol. That's so bad. If this was NYC and a cop saw me on the train through the back door, I woulda gotten arrested or a ticket or both. So I lucked out. That was fun. I went downtown to Newbury street. Which is like a wannabe SoHo. And I bought jeans and sneakers for tomorrows outfit because I only brought enough clothes for one day. Since I'm soo soo ballin, it was no big deal yh'm?* overall Boston is great. I can't wait to start in the fall.

It's been a while...

I just finished cleaning the mess that was in my room for the last like..... Forever and woaaaah. That was exciting. Lol. Now all I have to do is sweep the rug to get all the messy scraps off the floor. Then I'll take pictures of it lol. So I can see the big difference. It's quite exciting to clean. In a way. Because when everything is done you get to see the room in a completely different way.  
Anyway I'm not going to make that all I talk about because I know I owe it to my readers who have noticed that I haven't posted in such a long time to explain my absence. Well basically all ive been doing as I said in an earlier post has been looking for a job. After a while one of my first leads on a job through the father of an alumnus of my school actually worked out and I've been working as a porter for him in his building in manhattan. So that's all I've been doing. Working and spending money. Lol. Speaking of spending money. The majority of the money I've made this summer actually went to purchasing a new phone: the iPhone. This is a phone I've wanted for some time now lol. Finally AT&T has let me make a plan with them. Umm. I went to the beach once this summer so far (shout out to Steph and Jenny) and yeah. We actually saw BrĂ¼no afterward. I'm going to leave out details about that movie lol. OMGsh. I also read the last book in the Twilight series. Breaking Dawn. That book was utterly amazing. Best book I've read in such a long time. (only book I've read in such a long time). Now I'm reading The Time Traveler's Wife. I'm almost done with it. It's actually really good as well. Hmm. Not much else to say. I'll write back soon.

Love, peace, and soul.

Yankee Game

I went to the Yankee game yesterday with my family, it was the first time in the new stadium. I must say this stadium is epic. it's so huge that you can buy the cheap nosebleed seats and spend the whole game sitting field level or the first level. Since the Yankees lost, what a surprise we the fans had a very fun time just doing the wave. And after about 7 or 8 times, we finally got everyone in the whole stadium to do it, starting from the upper deck. Here are some pics. There's more via Facebook.
