Today's throwback is about a place instead of a person: the city of Boston.
This is the city where I was forced to learn true self-reliance:
- Living on a budget
- Living with strangers in a dorm
- Being forced to make new friends
- Dealing with a completely foreign climate
- Managing a bank account
- Being immersed in a foreign culture
- Doing laundry
- Working part-time
- Public transportation & walking a lot more
- Living on my own in an apartment
- Cooking for myself
It was a scary upheaval for an introvert such as myself, but I'm so glad I went through such a rite of passage. - QBF
PS: "BC SUCKS!!!"
PPS: In my darkest hour before classes started freshman year, I randomly watched what would turn out to be one of my favourite & objectively best movies ever, The Usual Suspects.
