Embarking on a new journey: Day 1

Friday was my last day as the public relations/social media intern at Chico's! As much as I was feeling relieved that I completed my third internship ... I was also secretly panicking on the inside. Okay, it wasn't secretly because I was voicing how I felt to all my close friends! I was freaking out. I decided that if I didn't get another position with the company that I was going to embark on a job hunt journey. As much as I love the vitamin-e from the sunshine in Florida ... I need something new. I kept talking about wanting something new. I had to smack myself in the face and say, "Stop talking about change, just do it!" So ... I booked a one way ticket for $67 (Thanks to Spirit Airlines) and here I am ... in the amazing city of Boston! It feels so good to be back here! My flight was at 7am (way too early), I was up at 5:20 this morning... I laid over in Atlantic City, NJ (less than an hour). By 11:30am I was in Boston (not too shabby).

For lunch, I had to get my culture fix ... went to a Vietnamese restaurant in Brighton and had summer rolls (shrimp, mint leaves, vermicelli noodles and lettuce wrapped in fresh rice paper) served with a spicy peanut sauce and crispy spring rolls (mixed veggies and minced meat) served with a spicy fish sauce. That was a great way to start my lunch... Then, I had a Vietnamese Pho Bowl (noodle soup, served with beef, rice noodles, basil, lime, bean sprouts and peppers). You can also add hoisin sauce and sriracha (spicy Thai sauce) for more flavor. 

 

After lunch, I took a much needed nap and awaited my sisters arrival! She got home from work around 6 and we had dinner at a little bakery called Flour. I had a pressed roasted chicken sandwich with brie, alfalfa sprouts and some kind of amazing sauce. I washed it down with some yummy black tea! Walked around the city a bit and then spent a couple hours at the dog park! 

I am excited to see what tomorrow has in store for me!

Ciao!
