My Boston life



My name is Joe from Taiwan. I have come to Boston about two weeks. In my opinion, everything is interesting to me in America, especially I like snow. As a result, I am curious why people don't play snowball in Boston. It is the first time that I go to America, and I would like to go everywhere. I usually go to some places near my appartment besides studying Englsih. For instance, I usually go to some shopping malls to find food, clothes, slippers and so on.


I like to play basketball with friends, but I don't find any basketball courts near my appartment, so who can tell me where I could play basketball with other persons in Allston? By the way, I think that Boston is a beautiful city, but it is a little cold. I prefer to stay in a warm weather with breeze. Besides, I like to make friends, and I have met some interesting friends here. That is wonderful.



What are my goals for the future? At present, I want to finish my ESL program in UMASS, and I will apply for my graduate school program in marketing. I prefer to major Fashion Merchandising in AAU in San Francisco. Therefore, I really hope all of us could learn a lot in UMASS Boston.

  3. Hi Joe,

    Thanks for a great first blog! I am glad to hear that you are enjoying being in Boston. I agree, it is a little cold! I used to live in Allston when I was a student, too. Unfortunately, I don't remember where any basketball courts are. Maybe someone else can help you.

    Lots of people have snowball fights when it snows, but it can be a little tricky if you are right in the city. You could go to a park with some friends, though. That would be a great place to have a snowball fight.

    I'll look forward to hearing more about this fashion merchandising in seminar.
