Ok...so i've made a few friends!
Although I spend most of my free time playing scrabble on facebook, I've managed to get out and discover the boston music scene. This may be the best place to meet people because you already have something in common with the people there (the type of band) and if you're a musician this is a plus because a lot of musicians go to shows! so that's 2 things in common. So i've finally figured out how to make friends...yay! The only thing I regret is that I haven't actually played any music since I've been in Boston which is sad because it used to be half of my life. Unfortunately there isn't a Boston MOBROC.
Moving on...I had a great time in DC with Alex, Eric, Duncan and Jesse...photos will be on facebook when I figure out how to do that (I just bought my first digital camera). DC is an amazing city. The free museums were the best part. I also got to go to the free zoo which was tons of fun. The whitehouse is a lot smaller than I expected.
Ok I have to talk about what happened to my roommates sunday night FOR ALL YOU DRIVERS OUT THERE WHO ALSO DRINK!!! All of my roommates were in a car with a friend of ours that was driving who was slightly intoxicated when they hit a patch of black ice and crashed into a tree, the drivers car is totalled. All of them walked out of the crash with reasonably minor injuries. My roommate who was sitting in the front passenger seat thankgod had her seatbelt on but the seatbelt gave her 2nd degree "friction" burns from the force of impact. The two who were in the back have massive brusing on there legs and knees. They are ridiculously lucky considering that same night 6 people in boston died from driving on black ice related incidents.
Ok I gotta end this blog here...sorry its on an intense note. but I'll follow up soon with details of my christmas party i'll be having this weekend!! Anyone who's in the area feel free to stop by! DRIVE SAFE!!!
