First Day Back

Today is the first day back in the admissions office after a few weeks off. It's good to see some familiar faces and catch up over the past few weeks. So far my summer vacation has been pretty good with no complaints. I've been relaxing a lot and just doing a whole lot of nothing. When its nice outside I'll go out and play catch or throw the frisbee with friends. When it rains, and unfortunately we've had a good amount of rain lately, I'll watch a movie or something.

My summer class started last week and it seems pretty interested for science. I'm not a total science fan so I wasn't exactly looking forward to it, but it seems interesting enough to hold my attention for a few weeks. Unfortunately I had homework assigned after the first class so last night I spent about an hour doing some minor research. I never thought I'd have to be doing homework during summer vacation.

I've been going home on the weekends to work at the bar back home I've been working at for the past two years. Its nice to have a little break from the city every now and then. I like working there too because I've been there so long and know everyone that its really laid back.

So far on my summer vacation I've gone to a Red Sox game and a Third Eye Blind concert. Both were amazing and I had a great time. I went to the Red Sox game with Allison and the concert with my friend Melissa. I can't wait for summer concerts. Getting there early to BBQ all day is definitely a huge part of a summer concert. I'm definitely seeing Rascal Flatts later this summer, I've seen them almost every summer for the past few years.

I really have beach fever right now and want to go soon. I bought a new skimboard for the year and really can't wait to hit a wave with the new board. I'm definitely going to be making some beach trips in the near future.

That's it for now, I don't have much to say.

Sweet Sweet Summer

So I've officially been on summer vacation for a week now and it's been absolutely amazing. This is my first summer in Boston and I've been having so much fun. With the warm weather I've been hanging out in the Greenway which is right at the end of the North End where I live. It's a great place to throw the frisbee, tan with friends, even have a picnic. It's been raining here the past few days, but I saw the new X-Men movie with my friend Kristin. It was a really good movie, definitely more intense then the last ones. There are a few movies coming out this summer I really want to see, Transformers 2, G.I. Joe, and Terminator Salvation. Three guy movies I know I know.

It's been a great time to be a Boston sports fan with the Celtics, Red Sox and Bruins still in season. The Celtics had a great first round playoff series against the Chicago Bulls and now are facing the Orlando Magic while the Bruins cruised by their first round opponent the Montreal Canadiens. The Sox aren't looking bad, I got to go to a game the other day when they played the New York Yankees. My seats were ridiculous but just to show you, this is where I was sitting....

Well that's it for now, I'll do my best to continue blogging!
