Walk for Hunger and Finals

[from_bu_to_you]

Well, finals week is here, and things are getting insanely busy.  Last week was filled with several late nights and one all-nighter.  Now that I'm done with my 12-page writing final on Woody Allen, a 20 page story storyboard and a short essay for film, I'm free to study for Spanish and write my final COM essay.  On Sunday, Angelo and I participated in the 20 Mile Walk for Hunger.  Nicole was originally planning on coming with us, but she needed to review for her Chemistry and decided not to come.  We left at 7:15 and went to the Boston Commons for registration.  Unfortunately, it was misty, but it got worse- by the time we made it to Braintree around mile 5, it was POURING rain.  So, we got really soaked, but luckily by the time we were done walking through Newton (one of the richest areas anywhere that has a claim to fame of not having a single murder within its city limits in the last 20 years) it was back to just being misty.  By the end of the 20 miles, we were so exhausted and our legs were so sore, but it was incredibly fun.  It was nice to see the suburbs of Boston by foot, considering I usually just see them by train.  Anyways, thank you to those of you who donated to the Walk for Hunger.  Supposedly there were 40,000 people and they said they've raised over $66 million since the Walk for Hunger Started.  Unfortunately, I didn't get very many pictures since it was so rainy and I avoided getting my camera soaked.  But here are a few:



At the Starting Line

Now I'm working on packing and studying.  It's quite sad to see my room start to empty out.  I've really enjoyed this year, and it's sad to leave.
