Friday Fun! (Open Studios, Boston Symphony Orchestra)

Hello my lovely readers!  I finally got an entire weeks’ worth of review posts up!  Yay for being back in the swing of things.

This has been a really busy week, but that is quickly becoming the norm for me.  Last Saturday I went to some artists’ open studios with Nina, her dad, and our friend E.  The studios were totally gorgeous.  Some of them were also the artists’ homes, and they were essentially loft style apartments.  I was insanely jealous.  At one of the studios I picked up a little piece of $10 found art.  I think it’s quite feminist as it features some empty birth control packs, etc…, and I plan on hanging it in my bedroom area.  Once I figure out how.  Nina’s dad took us all out for Thai food, and it was amazingly good!  Our waiter was this fabulous gay Asian guy, and he is now officially one of my favorite waiters ever.  That night I hung out with E.  We had a few drinks and watched a double-feature of The Last House on the Left–the original and the remake.  Be expecting a review comparing the two next week!

Also this week I went to the Boston Symphony Orchestra with Nina.  It was my first time ever at a symphony, and I really enjoyed it.  I discovered that classical music relaxes me.  I might have to acquire a cd of some to fall asleep to.  The conductor did two of the movements playing the piano and conducting simultaneously.  It was pretty amazing.  Plus, it’s always fun to have a night to get all dressed up for an actual reason.

Things are crazy busy right now with the final projects coming up in grad school, and my general refusal to slow down my socializing and taking in of the events in Boston.  It’ll be a busy weekend for me!  I hope you all are enjoying your falls.  🙂

    I saw the new Last House on the Left, but not the original. I’ve also seen most of The Virgin Spring which is also similar.

      Oh, knowing you, Terry, you *must* watch the original!
