Being nerdy at MIT

Hi all! I hope you had a memory-filled weekend!  I’m super excited at the current moment because on Friday I kicked off the start of about nine days of travel. I just got back from spending the weekend in Boston/Cambridge with friends then I have about 24 hours in NYC before heading to Utah tomorrow evening. I am SOOOOOO excited!! I can’t wait to try things I’ve never tried before and most importantly I can’t wait to share them with you! Trust me, I’ve got some crazy things lined up!
Ok so let’s talk Boston.  My former roommate is now a graduate student at MIT, just celebrated a birthday, and recently moved into a new apartment with her boyfriend.  She’s such a grown up! Needless to say we had plenty of things to celebrate so a bunch of us New Yorkers headed up to Beantown (does anyone know why people call Boston Beantown? Seriously. I need an answer).  Everything about Cambridge is so collegiate.  I swear I almost bought textbooks just so I could pretend like I was a co-ed among co-eds.  Anyway, I’m not.  And neither are my friends. But that didn’t stop us from strolling on campus, going to an a capella show, and laughing at drunk kids in dive bars.  A few pics after the jump…I’ll admit right now I didn’t take as many as I should have 🙁

Housewarming! Roomie being the perfect host

Fair trade store I explored on Massachusetts Ave. Please ignore my boot.

Store’s mission. I love supporting places like this.

So many beautiful products

MIT Kresge Auditorium

The worst photo of a rotunda ever. I guess I got a little dizzy!

Students! Haha not really…these are my friends. We are OLD.

Gorgeous

I hear the kids call this the hallway of infinity

Stunning architecture

Boston Harbor at night! Yes we crossed the Charles River on foot and it was soooo cold!

Finally I just want to thank Re3ecca for nominating me for a Very Inspiring Blogger Award! I don’t know very much about it but I’m super honored! I’ll be doing a full post about it tomorrow as well as an update regarding my departure to Utah tomorrow night. Night all!

    Thanks so much for coming! The hallway is actually called the “Infinite Corridor,” but I think your version sounds better 🙂
