Summer was fun

So I realize I have kind of been a slacker when it comes to blogging…  And I have had this pile of things on my desk that I want to blog about…  And today I was cleaning my desk…  So I’m blogging about all of these things in order to finish cleaning my room (and to procrastinate said cleaning).

Also, I was looking through my posts from last year and really appreciated them.  I’m a pretty funny kid sometimes.  And it made me want to blog.

Here’s a picture collage of fun things that I have done in the last three months of summer and me making goofy faces!

They had “Shakespeare on the Commons” and were performing this play every night for free.  My roommate and I went one night, but we were really tired and kind of confused as to what was going on, so we left at intermission with the intention of coming back another night to watch the rest… That never happened.

I went to a Cirque du Soleil show, which was super cool!

I visited Kelly and Meghan in New York!!!  Talk about a fun weekend.  We biked all around Central Park, explored Chinatown, and hung out in Times Square, AND…

…Visited the American Museum of Natural History!

After living in Boston for two full years… I finally walked the Freedom Trail.  This was a very good day 

This summer I was all into taking advantage of all the free things to do in Boston.  One of those things was free access to select museums each Friday.  I went to the Institute of Contemporary Art one day, and decided that I don’t have a very developed appreciation for art.  I am however open to learning and hope to visit the Museum of Fine Arts one day soon!  (It’s kind of pathetic that I haven’t been there yet… It’s right across the street from Northeastern and free.)

For my 21^st birthday I went to a Hillsong Concert with some of my friends, totally awesome!!

I’ve done other cool things too, but don’t have embarrassing pictures for those activities, so you’ll have to wait for another opportunity to hear about those.  Maybe (fingers crossed) this can be my kick-off back into semi-regular blogging. 

Have a great night everyone!

*These actually happened in August, but it was after the last Sunday in August so didn’t make the SASS list because I was actually on time last month, so I’m including them in this post because (I think you will agree with me) they are awesome.
