another sunday at pavement

Greetings --

It’s Sunday afternoon so I’m back at my usual spot trying to figure out what to write.

I’m mostly just tired. The past two weeks have been crazy for me and then next week is going to be crazy as well. 2 more midterms and a paper!! But spring break should be fun. For the first weekend I’m going up to Burlington, VT to visit my best friend at the University of Vermont. I haven’t seen her in a couple months and I’m so psyched to be up there with her, even if it’s just for a weekend. My other friend from home who goes to school here in Boston is coming up with me and for some reason, we decided to take a 2:25am bus back down to Boston on Sunday morning. That’s right, 2:25 in the MORNING. But it was the cheapest option by far and we both have very little money to our names right now so it seemed like a logical choice. Pray for me.

I’m still not really sure what I’ll be doing during the weekdays of break. My parents recently informed me that they’ll be in India during my break so I’m just supposed to go home and hang out there alone I guess? None of my friends will be on their spring break so I’m sure it will be a very boring week. Since I live so close to school and some of my friends are staying in their dorms over break I might just go back and forth or even stay at school for some of the nights. Better than being stuck in the suburbs all alone, right?

The last weekend of break I decided to go down to New York City to visit my other friends at Columbia because I haven’t been down there in a few years. I’m excited to get out of Mass for a bit. Don’t get me wrong, I love this state with all my heart, but sometimes it’s just nice to go somewhere different, even if it’s only for a few days.

In other news, my friend at BU has this brand kind of thing that he’s trying to develop and get out there and he was recently asked to come up with 7-10 looks for a fashion show that someone is putting on in April. He’s more into designing and saw that I had recently learned embroidery and asked me to help him out with the clothes. I’m super psyched about this project because I 1) love embroidery and need a side project to distract me from school and 2) wanted to be a designer when I was little but never tried my hand at actually making clothes. Neither of us has experience making clothes from scratch but it should be a really cool experience. I have pretty rudimentary sewing skills so who’s to say how it will turn out but we’ve decided that DIY is the new wave so the pieces don’t necessarily have to be super polished.
Stay gold,

Final Blog

     I'm an idiot, and I forgot to do my last blag post, so here it is. I coincidentally did a reflection post as my last blog for some ...
