Happy February

I actually went out on a work night this week. On Wednesday night, Vanessa (roommate), Matt (her boyfriend), and I got some vegan pizza, a beer, and then we decided to go to this monthly dance night at a club in JP. It was really fun actually. I was tired the next day at work, but it was worth it.

The weekend has gone by so fast! I heard Michigan has had lots of snow, but we had a beautiful, warmish weekend here in Boston. It was sunny both Saturday and today, and warm enough to be outside in a sweatshirt! It made me really excited for spring.

On Friday night, I met up with my friend, Emilee (met her through my roommate Vanessa) and we got Indian food at this really great place in JP. Then we went and saw "Persopolis," this foreign film based on a book about an Iranian girl growing up in times of political turmoil. It made me feel very ignorant about what's happening in the Middle East.

On Saturday, I slept in and then met up with a new friend, Stefanie, and we went for a walk in the Arboretum since the weather was so nice. We walked for a while - I was sore afterwards - but the highlight was walking to The Peak, which is a point where you can see a lot of Boston. I spent the night in, just relaxing with a movie.

Today I went grocery shopping at a store in JP. I didn't realize it was there until right before my car got stolen. So it was great to have a pretty close place to drive to and load up on groceries!

Now I'm going to do a few loads of laundry... yay for productive weekends.

Miss you all!
