It's Almost April?!

Hey Guys,

So it has been a while since I posted, but I figured it would be a nice break to jot down the things that have been happening since Spring Break ended.

I'm amazed that it is almost April. Where did my semester go?!?! Midterms are for the most part done with, which is amazing. To make this even more amazing, the weather here in Boston has been phenomenal. There's nothing better than Boston when there isn't an enormous pile of snow covering the Million Dollar Stairs. It's great to see all the BC kids dust off their shorts and T-shirts and play some Frisbee in the Dustbowl or eat their lunch outside of Hillside.

I also went to a phenomenal lecture last night called "The Last Lecture." It has become a pretty popular concept, but in case you aren't familiar here's a small re-cap: Each semester a Professor is asked to pretend as if he were reaching the end of his or her days, think about what is the most important lesson they have learned over the years that they would like to pass along, and then actually pass it on. This year the lecture was given by Father Fleming, a beloved Father here on Campus who is unfortunately leaving BC at the end of year. He focused his speech on what a Jesuit Education truly means, and how its cardinal principles can be incorporated into our daily lives. It was an amazing speech and a great way to put my last weeks at BC into perspective/prepare how I want to spend my last year at BC. Unfortunately his lecture isn't up, but if you want to catch the first "last lecture" at BC from Father Himes, an equally beloved and distinguished professor here on the Heights, click here!

Alright well time to get some more work done so I can go and lay out in the Quad before the rain comes.

Thanks for reading,
Juan
