OCTEMBER
Happy Oct(ember)! I've managed to adjust to this newfound college lifestyle quite well, and I'm really enjoying my time in Boston with new friends, surroundings, and ~experiences~ except not so much the latter, but that makes my college life seem more exciting and interesting to my parents- so whatever works? The workload is manageable and my schedule is extremely flexible, so my assignments and studying are done in a timely fashion. There's so much emphasis on my grades this semester, because I'm applying to some dental programs/internships for the summer. I really hope I get accepted into a program at the University of Washington, because I would be reunited with the crisp, beautiful West coast air, my girl Sarah, and the general awesomeness of Seattle. Back to school, my room mate is my best friend/twin/everything in between, and I visited her quaint town, AKA the location where the proposal was shot(never seen it but still?), over Columbus Day weekend with our other friend. It was a glorious trip that really acted as a precursor to the true beauty of New England autumns. I've included some pictures from the orchard as well as the quarries we visited!
I'm assembling a new playlist for the months of October and November, a mix of the Smiths/the Virgins/Frank Ocean/post rock bands/whatever works. I still have to make the cover art, but I'll post that soon! I'm going to try to update this blog more and post some articles about architecture/art/whatever tickles my fancy. Crystal Castles (III) just dropped and I've been bumpin' to that lately! I actually went to a CC show on Saturday and survived with zero bruises/battle scars.

I've been running on six hours of sleep for the past two days, so I think a nap is justifiable- not like you EVER need a reason to nap- but the autumn weather is distracting and disorienting, so I thought I would admire the leaves and enjoy a pumpkin latte instead! I can't wait to take walks around Water Works and FDR again, and look at the new exhibits that are starting to pave way!
Speaking of Philadelphia entertainment, yesterday, I went to South St to grab dinner and dessert before I went to see Carmen at the Academy of Music.
Gaja Gaja (Korean, Japanese, Sushi Bar.). 627 South St Philadelphia, PA 19147
I'm really content that my family decided to eat at this restaurant, because I love quality-tasting udon and rolls more than I love Joseph Gordon Levitt. The atmosphere is peaceful, the service is great, and the food is delicious! My aunt is also friends with the owner, so I think I'll frequent this place with friends soon!
ROLLS: $5-10. A DISH: $10-$20.
Phileo Yogurt 416 S St Philadelphia, PA 19147
My favorite spring/summer activity is purchasing froyo at Phileo, and then walking to Penns Landing to hang out with friends or to ride my bike (OR BOTH!). Froyo is my part-time love, and full-time friend; my favorite flavors are green apple, lychee, and plain tart. I was also really happy yesterday when I saw that pomegranates were offered as a topping! This picture does not do this place justice, so go check it out and tell me what you think of frozen yogurt!
Speechless. I went to see Carmen yesterday at the Academy of Music, and it was truly a lovely break from reality.
