Final Thoughts

So the trip is over.  The students have woken up, the tour guide has stopped talking, and the teachers have stopped posting in the fire escape.  Now all that is left of boston is a bunch of memories of collages I will never get into, beautiful forests that will soon cease to exist, and loud annoying kids that wont shut up when I am trying to sleep on the bus.  I liked the collage tours because I got to see what kind of atmosphere they had, even though the tour itself was pretty boring.  I was kind of disappointed at the battle sites because most of them have been turned into cities or towns.  I was expecting to see large fields but instead saw a couple rocks with names on them.  My favorite thing of the whole trip was probably the tour of Fenway park.  Not only did I learn a bunch of stuff about baseball, but I also got to watch a tweaked out old dude babble on for hours, one of MY favorite pastimes.

The Final Day

So far, today has been the best day.  First off, we got to wake up later than usual.  We took a trip to salem to look at where the witch trails took place.  I was kind of disappointed when we went to the graveyard, because it ruined the end to the book that we are reading in class.  After that we went to an asian art museum, which had some cool exhibits, but we spent most of the time sitting or catching up on missed sleep.  For lunch we went to some cutty little deli.  It wasn't bad, but it wasn't good either.  Then we went to this old school candy store with every type of old school candy you could ever imagine.  After that we spent 3 hours in a little town that has less to do than mill valley.  Then we were off to a play, which was kinda funny but got boring and annoying after a while.  I almost stole the policeman's gun from his holster, but he was a cutty old one, and caught me in the act. Now I think that it is time to get some shut eye, cause we have to wake up at like 3 cali time.

Day three

After passing out and waking up(thankfully a little later this time), we were off to go tour another collage.  This was a little more boring than the previous one, mostly because it was very early and lasted almost two hours.  Then we paid a visit to Harvard square.  There were all kinds of shops there, including one called the hempist, where I got this dope hoodie and a couple posters.  We took a walking tour of harvard after lunch, which was also boring, except I found this beefy rail that looks perfect for a little overcrooks.  After that, we cutty dipped to the middle of nowhere, where the revolutionary war started.  This was just about as interesting as the collage tours.  When we finally returned to civilization, we ate dinner at a mall and then saw Righteous Kill, which was hella raw.  Some kids didn't get it, but that is because they are rooks.  Now I am trapped in room 204 trying to get a little bit of sleep before tomorrow.

Day two

Today was packed.  We had to wake up at like 7:30, which is around 4:30 where I am from.  We took the bus straight to Fenway park.  We met our tour guide, who was a little to cracked out for my taste.  I learned hella facts about the park and many of the players who played there.  After that we took a stroll down the freedom trail, stopping at a bakery and a church on the way.  The rest of the day was filled with a collage tour, which didn't really catch my interest, and a dinner on the water.  I didn't eat anything because I had filled up on various fatty foods, but I did enjoy watching all the poor drunken fools try to dance to the slappers that the DJ had(he needed some Mac Dre hella badly.)  We returned to the hotel later than expected, then passed out and woke up the next morning.

The first day

Today we got on the flight to Boston.  It was long and boring, but i liked the movie that was on.  After we landed, we got on the bus and drove to the Hard Rock Cafe.  I had a bacon cheeseburger there and it was quite delicious.  After dinner, we had some free time with which we spent looking around the square and seeing what overpriced goods were for sale.  Then we took the long ride back to the hotel and went to sleep
