Boring weeks and relaxing weekends

So this past week was pretty uneventful. starting to get into the swing of things, getting to all my classes and getting work done. it just seems like an endless cycle sometimes. the weekend was pretty enjoyable thou. saturday i went to philly for the first time to meet up with one of my best friend John who goes to Cabrini. the last time i saw him was right before he left for college about a month ago, so it was nice to see him again. we took the train to get there, which was an adventure in itself. now ive been on trains plenty of times, but it can get confusing trying to figure out what stop to get off at. when we got on the train we told the conductor that we were going to the center city stop, not realizing that the center city stop was under another name. long story short, we missed our stop and had to get off and take another train back to were we needed to go. once we got into the city, we went and got my first philly cheesesteak ever. i know, its sad ive never had a philly cheesesteak before. it was really good actually. after that we went to the Philidelphia Museum of Art and climbed the same steps Silvester Stallone climbed in the Rocky movies. after we did that we walked around for a few more hours and went home. that was pretty much my weekend. after these few weeks of nonstop work it was nice to have a relaxing weekend filled with plenty of sleep and reuniting with old friends. i think im going to start something new with my blog. im going to try to end each blog entry with a quote to think about, so here it goes. "Life is what happends when your busy making other plans"- John Lennon

  1. I hate to say it, and I really wish it wasn't true, but public transportation blowwwws...I have never had one good experience with trains/subways/busses etc., seems like theres a lot more potential but that would just make too much sense for these systems to work well...

  2. I've been up those steps plenty, but haven't been on public transit aside from school buses.

  3. i live 15 minutes out of philly but it makes it so much more of an adventure to hop on the train with a group of pple to get there
