City Lines

At some point in the recent past, Boston was not entirely covered with mountains of snow.

It seems impossible to think about that as the winter weather now affects our day-to-day activities so much. I know everyone in New England is getting a little anxious for the cold to end. I personally am planning tropical travels & looking back at fall foliage to escape this frozen tundra.

I was waiting for the right time to share these photos from the fall, and I feel like today is that day. Cindy of TUNG PHOTOGRAPHY snapped these on a bitter cold afternoon in November. The leaves were crunchy,  the air was crisp, and I was able to work on projects for this blog, something I truly care about, but only because I have people like Cindy who selflessly work to help me accomplish my dreams – STYLESILIKE or otherwise.

It was a day that made feel alive & blessed in the best ways possible.

This picture of me looking at this City Line is my favorite. On my school’s campus, this sign marks the break between Newton & Brighton. Now, I look at this picture, and I imagine that it reads “New York” on one side and “Boston” on the other. I am getting excited for my move to the Big Apple next year, but I dread leaving the comfort level and genuine love I have found on this campus.

While the snow is a burden in many ways, I am grateful for it in this moment. The snow symbolizes that spring has not come yet – that there is a little time between now & graduation. It means that my time at Boston College has not come to an end yet.

Yes, I want the snow to melt away eventually, but for now, I can be happy that, in a strange & beautiful way, it’s keeping me here at BC for a little longer.
