Enjoying Boston

On Sunday, I decided to take a spur of the moment study break and go see a play with my friend Michelle. The play was a Boston University production of Anne Boleyn at the Boston Center for the Arts in the South End. It was amazing! Although the play takes place in the 16th century, the dialogue was surprisingly fresh, laced with wit and sexual innuendo. I'm really glad I took Michelle up on the offer to see the play. The hours I lost in study time were well worth it!

On our way back to campus, Michelle and I made a pit stop at the Boston Common. I was delighted to see so many bright holiday lights strung on trees and streetlamps. I'm a huge fan of the holiday season, but, unfortunately, there isn't much festivity on campus. Although I've lived in Boston for nearly two years, I am not ashamed to admit I was snapping pictures like a tourist.

Sunday was truly a great day! My days in Boston are limited and I'm glad I was able to get out of the study lounge and enjoy some fresh air and culture.
