The Life and Times of a Girl

So blogging.  I feel like for people that are far away it is a really good idea.  It lets you stay connected.  And I always thought that when I made my big travel debut I would keep all my adoring fans updated.  Telling them all about the adventures and knowing me... awkward misadventures.  And apparently I'm a band wagon jumper too.  So this is me jumping.  


But I live in Boston.  That's still so weird to me.  I know its been like 5 months.  It should probably stop being weird.  But its not. And the truth is, being here... makes me realize that I heart and soul adore Alberta.  I miss Alberta Beef.  Just kidding... We'll see how it goes though.  Everyone says Boston grows on you.  


But here is top 5 of my adventures in the last five months (that I can remember anyways)... things that have made this moving across the country and well, into another country interesting...

1. I got asked if I wanted to share someone's iPod on the subway...


2.  Someone asked to take a picture of my heel... for a school report?


3.  I got to go see MAE... for Free... Oh it was beautiful!



4.  Mom, Matt and I walked the streets of Boston... which was way tiring but so good too... I love having any family visit.



5... mmm.. getting lost in a graveyard... There's this huge famous/gorgeous graveyard (Mt. Auburn) that everyone says you have to go see.  And there's a big tower in the middle that lets you see Boston for miles around.  Well, I separated from the group and didnt realise that it was really twisty turn-y in the graveyard... so I got lost and couldnt find my way out.  Made me feel like I was five.  Especially when an older couple escorted me to the entrance.



So thats the catch up.  Boston, Dental School and now a blog.  We'll see how that goes.

Oh my gosh! I hate getting lost! It always makes me panic and think that I need to start crying and yell out "MOM!!!" How brave of you to ask that older couple. You should have offered to fill in one of their denture teeth for free once you have your degree.
Also, I'm curious to know that this iPod subway person looked like...
