Yesterday I went with Andrea and Evan to George’s Island, part of the Interharbor Island system. For only $12, you can take a ferry from Boston to the Islands, and you can go through the tunnels of Fort Warren. A little bit about George’s Island:

This 30-acre island is dominated by Fort Warren, a National [...]

Last night, I went out with friends to play pool, and when we were done, I went to the Silhouette with my friends Josh and Lauren. It was past last call, and we were playing darts. A waitress came into the back room to tell everyone to finish their games and to leave. After a [...]

Spontaneous Weekend
July 10th, 2006 · 1 Comment
It’s weird being in a new apartment knowing that I’m only going to be there for 2 months. Since nothing feels permanent at all and I’m living out of boxes, it really feels like I’m on vacation. So, I’ve been going out a lot. Now, when I say I’m going out a lot, I’m not [...]

Last night, for the second night in a row, I ventured to the Silhouette. Affectionately known as the “Sit and Sweat”, the Silhouette can be described as a dive bar. But the place has one thing that I absolutely love: It’s the best dart scene in the world.
So, last night, my friend Evan and I [...]
