I want to write, but I can’t think of anything important to write about. Thus, I am writing about the All-Star game last night (even though I fell asleep and did not see the end of it). I knew the AL would win anyway (NL is terrible, btw), so I wasn’t too focused on the game.
I was disappointed to see the Yanks fans booing Pap. Once a year an opportunity exists to put aside our competitiveness and hatred for each other and you ruin it by misunderstanding Pap’s comments and sheepishly holding onto the NY media’s misconceptions. Your actions were simply immature,. Yet, they act to further re-enforce the stereotype of ignorant baseball fans followers. Pap actually praised Mariano – what are you so upset about? I guess it is just in Yanks fans’ nature to unquestionably follow the lead of a few media knuckleheads.
Anyways, I’m excited to head to Boston in two weeks. I think I should get a feel as to whether or not I would enjoy studying there for three years. Still, I’m also excited because it should be wicked fun. I am first driving to Chicago to check out Northwestern and U Chicago – and of course Lollapalooza 
I think I will also make a drive up to the annual Kiel Picnic when I get back from Boston. It should be a great summer week.
