I got the Canadian

        I know, I know, its been a few days, but I had a very important weekend. One of my best friends from my trip to Israel came to Boston, and stayed with me! Her name is Emma, and she one of my best Canadian friends. Ok take out the Canadian Part (Sorry Emma!)
        Side Note: On my trip, there were only two students who were not from the US, and our only Canadian was Emma. Every place we went, someone would ask if anyone was from Canada, and everyone would look at Emma. We all loved it, but she got a bit annoyed after like the ten thousandth time...
        Anyway, she flew in Friday, and since she lives in the city of Toronto, she didn't really know a lot about suburbs, so we drove though town centers and strolled down the matchy-matchy streets, and she loved it. She said it was "so cute!". Saturday, our friend from the trip Sara, drove up from the cape, and another girl from my town met up with us, and the four of us took the T into Boston. It was so much fun. I never want to go anywhere with my parents ever again.  (I get my License in July!)  I had made a reservation at Fire and Ice, so that is where we had lunch. I Normally don't like it, but I don't know if it is the company that makes the experience, or I just chose better food, but it was really nice. We left stuffed, and walked down Newbury Street. There were tons of street performers (unusually) and the sun was out, so it was really enjoyable just walking along. We went into Anthropologie and spent over an hour there. Just their decorations are enough to boggle at. I always love the little nik-naks scattered around the store. We also went to Urban, but that's always fun since it is my all time favorite store. We also stopped by Starbucks for a bathroom stop, and a cappuccino for me. Then we hopped on the  T headed back home.


        That night my friend Liza slept over too, and the three of us walked up and down my street in the dark since it was nice out and was weirdly hot in my house. The next morning, my brother, mom, Emma and I went to a little dinner. Its always delicious! Emma tried bacon for the first time! I think she liked it. Before heading to the airport, we went to Target since Emma also had never been! Its unbelievable how people live with out target. I guess I don't get that much there, but it's such a great store. Emma stocked up on American snack foods like "fishies" aka Goldfish, and Jiff Peanut butter. She should be set until I can visit and bring more. :) I hope her visit was as good on her end as it was on mine!

SOOOO.... I have been uber busy, and will post soon!
