so i just took "the T" back to BU by myself from Allston? (that is MOST likely mispelled). I was out with the beloved Brian Robert Taberski, the bestest friend a gal pal could have and Mark, the best NEW friend a gal could have. i am proud to say i knew where to get off the T, which may seem small to those of you who have mastered a life that is ruled by public transportation. in my case though, after driving for 12 years and owning your own vehicle for 8 of those years, relying upon a perfect stranger to drive you home is, well, how can i say, freaking scary?!?!
anyway. prior to my night of margaritas, i found myself wandering with my new friend becky, through the streets of boston to get to whole foods market. we were so proud of ourselves...leaving our little compound, otherwise known as "Warren Towers". it was absolutely fabulous to be able to say that we could find our way around...because in the midst of everything, i am still scared out of my mind, desperately missing my dearest family and friends in the two cities i refer to as home. so being able to find a natural foods store was quite the accomplishment, considering that is seems to be that everyone in boston says "two lights and a left", even if it is completely false.
so i'm advancing into the ranks of being a real girl now. learning to get around without the trusty little blue, maggy-mobile. carrying a map with me at ALL times, in the instance that somehow i become so incoherent as to what is what, i will always have some way to lead me back to my res hall.
so it's exciting. small and simple victories help to make life in a new city so much more beautiful and amazing. it's starting off to be a fabulous journey...
sweetdreams!!
