Long weekend in Boston

This weekend was a long weekend so I visited Boston with my room mate. It's a beautiful city :)
Here are a few photos:

Snow Day = best idea ever

Here at UMass they have come up with a brilliant concept: SNOW DAYS. Basically under 'extreme weather' circumstances they cancel classes and close the university. The rationale behind this is that many people live off campus and need to drive to get to uni, so if there is a lot of snow they won't be able to get here. So today is a snow day. I think UQ should adopt this idea for 'Storm Days' or 'Hail Days'.

The hockey game I went to on Saturday was a bit of a disappointment, UMass lost 7-1. Here are a few photos from the game:

WEEKEND!!!

Tonight I'm going to another ice hockey game which is sure to be even crazier than the last because UMass is fighting for 2nd place!
Then tomorrow I'm going ice skating at the rink on campus (yes, there is an ice skating rink on campus). And at some point I'll need to find the time to do the 2 lab reports and 3 assignments which are due next week...
Should be an interesting weekend
