Leslie's ID picnic!

Today is Memorial Day. Leslie (RISD Industrial Design department head) invited everyone over to her house for an end of the year ID celebration! I played some volleyball, ate hot dogs and hamburgers, went to the beach, and walked through a farm. There's a farm behind Leslie's house, so we could see cows from her backyard. That was pretty cool... I'm always surprised by the amount of backyard space people have in America. In China we have teensy tiny backyards - and no wild animals. Everything is man-made. But Leslie's house had a forest path behind it with wild turkeys and coyotes! :D

Little piggies!

Big momma pig

Leslie's daughter Mia petting one of the pigs. I've never seen pigs so up close before. They were HUUUGE.

I couldn't believe you could just walk to the beach from their backyard. What a beautiful place to grow up in!

Happy Memorial Day/end of year! This has been an interesting week... I sort of watched everyone go through finals and move out and now I'm in this strange mode where it feels like summer break/vacation, but I don't want it to feel that way because I don't want it all to end! It's all very surreal and bittersweet. I am really going to miss these past 4 years...

Picnic at India Point Park

Angela cooked up a storm and we had a lovely picnic by the water :). Check out Mike's face in the last picture... hehe..

Food Truck Fridays

It has become a tradition to eat at the Chinese food truck up on Thayer every Friday. Look how much Jason ate last Friday :p. In wok we trust!

Pretty Providence sunset :)

Homicide at Wings 2 Go

Here is a warning for you: if you ever go to "Wings 2 Go" up on Wickenden St., I don't recommend the Homicide boneless wings. THEY. ARE. DEADLY. I ate one and wanted to cry. I had heard stories before of how spicy they were but I thought pshh...how spicy can one wing be? I can take it! But yeah... I was so wrong. It was painful. Everyone was sweating/crying/burning up/turning red/dying. Not fun!!

Here we are, still looking healthy, right before eating our homicide wings.

Cheers!

I really wish I took after photos... :p
