<\/p>\n
The weather is nice, spring is in the air (or was a few days ago\u2026 typical Boston) and the summer season is right around the corner. You know what that means\u2026 time to go out to eat, explore and \u201ctreat yo self \u201c(Parks and Recreation reference).<\/p>\n
So I\u2019ve compiled a list of last minute Bostonian things to do before going home for summer.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
1. Go to a Red Sox game.<\/b> I KNOW I KNOW, such a Boston stereotype. But I haven\u2019t been yet so it made the list. The new dip in prices for students is motivating me to finally head to Fenway and experience the baseball culture before the end of the semester. Please hold me to that.<\/p>\n
2. Bova\u2019s Bakery in the North End<\/b>. Let\u2019s face it; Mike\u2019s Pastry is overrated. Bova\u2019s is cheaper, less mainstream and less touristy. \u00a0And it\u2019s open 24 hours. Only a true Bostonian puts Bova\u2019s over Mike\u2019s.<\/p>\n
3. Coolidge Corner Theatre.<\/b> It shows classic movies, foreign films, documentaries and sci-fi features. From time to time there are new movies, but it\u2019s fun to experience movies that aren\u2019t typically shown in a theatre setting.<\/p>\n
4. Maria\u2019s Taqueria<\/b>. Best Mexican food in Boston. It may look like a hole in the wall, but it\u2019s a best-kept secret of the theatre district.<\/p>\n
5. Raven Used Bookstore<\/b>. One in Cambridge and one in the Back Bay area, it\u2019s a great place to find your next read. Buy a book and go read it outside! Date day with yourself.<\/p>\n
6. Dumpling Caf\u00e9.<\/b> Hands down the best Chinese restaurant in Chinatown. Get soup dumplings, and your life will never be the same<\/p>\n
7. Bella Luna<\/b>. It\u2019s a restaurant in Jamaica Plain with a bowling alley downstairs. It\u2019s definitely not touristy, and a lot of fun.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Of course you could always walk on the Common, do the Freedom Trail, look in graveyards for some of Boston\u2019s historical figures, explore Harvard yard\u2026 but let\u2019s be honest. Most of us have done these things within our first month of college.<\/p>\n
I hope these suggestions are helpful in your adventures during your last few weeks of classes, good luck on finals!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
