Hello Again,
Greetings from the penultimate week of tours and information sessions here at Boston College. I’ve just finished being on a panel for one of our Eagle Eye Information Sessions and felt like I could use a break and blog.
Although today is Monday (and I’m not happy about it after a great weekend spent at the beach) I’m certainly not going to simply stay in my room and pout. Instead I have a great night ahead of me. It’s Restaurant Week here in the Boston which means all of the best restaurants are offering three course meals for $33 (227 restaurants to be exact!). I actually went to Antico Forno last night in the north end and it was absolutely fantastic. I’m going to try to hit as many as possible this week. It truly is worth it. I’m also going to frequent what has become my regular Monday night hangout during the summer, Trivia at Applebee’s in Cleveland Circle. Myself along with a bunch of the summer staff love to compete with each other and other locals for gift certificates. As a group we have dominated as of late, capturing 3 of the top four places each of the last 5 weeks. I’m really looking forward to tonight because I got a good feeling it will finally be my team’s turn to break out of our slump and jump from fourth to first.
Granted it is Monday and there is work to be done, but this is typical of any weeknight at Boston College, a balance between work/academics and spending quality time with friends. It was this balancing act exhibited by the student body that attracted me to BC in the first place. You might want to consider those kinds of intangibles when are viewing colleges.
Until next time friends …
