I haven't updated in awhile. I apologize for that. I had planned on posting last week regarding the tragedy in Boston but emotions were high and I just couldn't put into words what happened (and still can't).
Boston is the greatest city in the world. It has been a home to me for the past few years. I still fully intend on moving to Boston after completing my undergraduate education (only 1 more semester). It is heartwarming to see the outpouring of support from across the globe. Sports rivals have offered their condolences and had many tributes to Boston during their games and events last week. It is reassuring to know that people can put all prejudices aside and come together to support the people in need.
I have been keeping up with the latest news following the attacks and as a result have come across quite a few great articles and tribute videos depicting the community of Boston and the strength, courage and heroism everyone has showed!
