christmas around here..... in our perfect apartment complex, several people planted a christmas tree in their house (as deduced from the tree needles every where on the stairs (is it needles? i dont know. in dutch its "naalden" so i just translated it literally)). christmas lights and so on decorate the outsides of many houses, and also in the lab i heard christmas songs the entire day. pfffffftttt. there is apparently one radio station that plays only christmas songs since the day after thanksgiving until... yes, christmas...
above is on boylston street, the entrance to the prudential mall. the have been throwing some gigantic chrismas balls every here and there.....
no way that you can ignore christmas. (but i already said that) my goodness, everything is always bigger here than i think... :)))
