homesick for boston

So actually after a dream, i started feeling homesick for Boston again :( Although i have not been born in Boston but i think of it as my second home. I have lived and studied there. An anyone who as gone to college in Boston knows what i mean.It was a mixed roller coaster kind of stay (happy ,sad, free, and challenging) At times i would cry for my home and would not go out just out of sheer fear of a new country. So when i got settled in the new place and at my college I made friends , joined societies and groups at the college. Sometimes I would also go window shopping all by myself. I would help my friends to move in and out of their apartments. I would travel to other cities by bus, train , car and air I would go on a fiery ride and watch 4th July fireworks in DC. I would watch an ice hockey match and be late for a baseball one at Fenway park. I once tried to get on top of Jhon Hancock building along with my friend but
failed. I did manage to climb all the stairs of the Bunker hill monument. I walked the freedom trail, happily hosted many of my friends and showed them all around Boston . Took a walk with a friend in Boston commons with her 8 month old n a stroller. I once lost my boarding card at Boston logan airport and then had to re buy my ticket to New york I picked and dropped many friends and family from and to the airport Had fun many times in the Infinite corridor at MIT Took many pictures at Harvard while admiring fall colors Watched street performances at Quincy market Loved the Cheesecakes at cheesecake factory HAd breakfast at top of the Hub (prudential center) I remember taking a friend to have ice cream at cold stone
