You know I'll call you eventually, when I wanna talk

'Til then you're invisible. 

Have I failed to mention that I am enjoying Boston College? I am. Granted, right now I am not in Boston...I am in New York. With Columbus Day came a three day weekend and an opportunity for everyone else in the house to scatter to where they thought appropriate. For a number of them it was home. For me it was New York City, somewhere I had never been before but could go because I could stay at someone's house in Queens.

I feel as though I can barely in any position to give an opinion on the city, seeing as how i was only there three days. One thing I found, which may sound silly, is that being in New York City made me miss San Francisco. I feel like most large cities have a cluster of large buildings, but in nyc all the city is the cluster of large buildings. Okay let's try and be positive here:

I like that the subway runs 24/hours....that's something I really wish Boston had. The subway system confused the hell out of me, but I think that is because it is so unfamiliar. Boston will be quiet and calm after this.

Kathie showed us around to some great Asian food. It was a very Asian-centered trip. 

Summary: We were supposed to leave Boston at 830, but the bus didn't leave until 11 and it wasn't even the bus we had payed for...I wrote a letter on the drive over, and then slept. I woke up with Ryan saying "hey you might want to look around to see some of this for the first time" (or something to that affect): and i saw what the city looks like at three city in the morning-a lot of lights. When we got to Kathie's house in queens her mother was up and gave us some yummy dumplings. Saturday we slept a while then walked around (what was supposedly) the village. Ryan and I went in stores, I bought some scarves, some books. We met up with Kathie again at Penn Station around 9. We then walked around times square, which was crazy. A lot of lights and people, electronic billboards. Toys R Us, Virgin Record Store. We then went to eat good Vietnamese food with good Ginger Iced Tea. Got back to her house around 1 or 2. Talked. Woke up late Sunday, got dropped off at the MOMA. Amazing. So much artwork. They had a lot of everything, a lot of Picasso of Pollack of Monet. They had Dali's famous painting, Warhol, Matisse. They also had a special Van Gogh exhibit which included Starry Night. The museum closed and we saw all but one floor: the third: photography. Kind of a bummer, but I'll go back over Thanksgiving I'm sure. Seeing all the art was very emotionally exhausting, and in turn left me feeling physically exhausting. Something about all that art in one place and knowing how important art is to some people, made me want to cry as I walked around. It was a really interesting feeling. There was so much going on at once and I couldnt handle it....maybe it's good that I didn't have time to see everything. We then went to Strawberry Fields in Central Park which is this Lennon memorial where there is a mosaic on the ground that says "IMAGINE" with flowers and pictures, a guitar, and candle. It was all very beautiful. Also, his birthday was Saturday. Eric met up with us at this point and we walked over to the Empire State Building (which costs 19 dollars to go up and which we didn't pay) and then went to K-town. We ate Red Mango, then met his friends in a Korean coffee shop. We parted from him and his friends and went back to Kathie's. Watched Wedding Crashers and went to bed around 330. This morning we left with our bags to go to a pancake house. The wait was 45 minutes and after waiting about that long we just got food to go. It was really pricey and the service was a bit unfortunate, but when we got a chance to sit down and eat (while waiting for the bus) it was good. So now I am on the megabus on our way back to Boston.

Bleh. That was grossly long. I feel as though I should talk about real life at BC and how that is going. It is going pretty well. The first two weeks I was in a very good mood, very friendly, very extroverted. I am still content but more introverted for the time being. I suppose I have made a few close friends...though when I try and pinpoint them I feel that they are all guys... which is fine, just interesting that I always want to be good friends with guys, and have a harder time relating to girls. 

I'm completely alone at a table of friends
I feel nothing for them. I feel nothing, nothing

The shaw house is awesome. It's cool that not only are the twenty of us a little family, but we interact with other people who were once in shaw so it is kind of like one giant family. Seen as exclusive, but it does not have to be. Paris and I get along really well and we've had some good memories already exploring Boston or going out to breakfast. It's just a really nice place to live

Classes are fine. Taking five, it's reasonable. My classes really aren't that difficult considering I'm not one of the people taking Bio Chem Calc. That would be rough. 

I'm interning at the radio station which has been fun. So much music. Michael, Justin, and I have a show on the AM station which is every Wednesday 5-6 (2-3 California time) and can be heard online:

I do not feel homesick. Hannah is coming here for Thanksgiving, and then a couple weeks later is Christmas break at which point I will go home. I do not really miss home, I guess I miss aspects that my home had and a few friends, but I don't miss anyone terribly. I now call where I live at BC "home". It's relative.

I am exhausted at the length of this, sorry but I think I will have to continue some other time.

But the night rolls around and it all starts making sense 
There is no right way or wrong way, you just have to live
And so I do what I do and at least I exist
What could mean more than this? 
What would mean more?
