discoveries

yesterday i went running in an effort to lower my level of stress (ahh!! finals!! the worst ever!) and to explore my neighborhood. i discovered some things i had no idea existed two blocks over.

one, the museum of fine arts is literally across the back bay fens from my apartment. in less than ten minutes, i could be staring at the american art wing! and for dirt cheap because i'm a student! future activity!

two, there's a very impressive memorial to the korean & vietnam war boston vets. there's also an interesting statue there--i want to research it, because the statue (lady of justice, i think?) is holding a gun with an olive branch. interesting.

three, i watched leaves skate over ice...i've never seen that before. it was beautiful.

four, violently shivering, i marveled at how birds are designed as i watched a canada (and maybe even canadian haha) goose flip over and partially submerge itself in the water.

five, it's wicked pissah cold in boston!
